Ivan the Terrible forgot neither hie
devotions nor bis diversions. His pal
ace alternately resounded wtth pray
ing and carousing He bad a company
o f Jesters, whose duty It was to divert
blm. e*|>eciully before and after any
executions, but they often paid dearly
for an unseasonable Joke.
Among Ibese none was more distin
guished than Prince Gvosdef. who held
a high rank at court.
The caar. being one day dissatisfied
with a Jest, poured over the prince's
bead the boiling contents o f a soup
basin. The agonized wretch prepared
to retreat from the table, but the ty
rant struck blm with a knife, and be
fell senseless to the floor. Dr. Amolph
was instantly called.
"Save my good servant" ' cried the
n a r. “ I have Jested with blm a little
too hard."
"So hanl." replied the other, "that
only God and your majesty can restore
him to life. He no longer breathes."
Ivan expressed his contempt, called
the deceased favorite a dog and con
tinued his amusements.
Another day. while he sat at table,
the waywode o f Starltxa. Boris Tltof.
api>eored. bowed to the ground and
saluted him after the customary man-
aer.
"God save thee, my dear waywode.
Thou deservest a proof o f my favor."
He seised a knife and cut off an ear.
T itof thanked the oxar for his gractoua
favor and wished him a happy reign.—

Should any stock be killed which
