THE RUSSIAN CHURCH.
Ih PrevalllnT Religion of Rnssla Sine
the Time of Peter the Great.
The great majority of the inhabitant
nf Russia belong to the Russian
llum-h. which is a branch of anil is
identical with the Greek Church.
Christian ity was introduceil into Rusft
in the ninth century. . In ihe jreat
schism between thn Eastern and West
ern churches the Christians of Russia
were divided in sentiment, but later
they o-enerally gave in their adherence
to the Greek party. In l."89 the Rs
sian Church was made a patriarchate,
subordinate, however, to the patriarch
nf Constantinople. This subordination
was acquiesced in for about a
century, and was then repudiated
by the Patriarch Nikon, who
claimed autiiority to alter the
ritual of the church, and even to dis
regard civil power. One of the first
reforms therefore, of Peter the Great,
was th. suppression of the patriachate
and the direct subordination of the
Church to the civil authority. He acted
ver- cautiously in the matter, appoint
ing, on the -death' of the patriarch
Adrian in 1700. an acting director of
ecclesiastical affairs with the title of
K.tsuvh, to" set until a new patriarch
could be. chosen, and when, after an
interval of twenty years, the public
mind had partially forgotten the patri
archate, lh ortice was formally abol
ished, and the administration cf church
affairs placed under thsj direction of a
council of Bishops and Archbishops
appointed bv the Emperor. Un
der the direction of this council a com
plete revision of the doctrine, disci
pline and government of the church
took place, and the chauges being ap
proved by the Czar, the new code was
adopted by the Russian Church. In
doctrine the church does not differ ma
terially from the main IkkIv of the
Greek. The liturgy used is the same
as that of the chsreb at Constantino
ple, but it Is not read jti Greek, but in
the Slavonic tong-ie. One of the prin
cipal objects of t hit iirperial policy to
ward the church, inaugurated by Peter
tbe Great, has been a general uniform
ity of religious opinion throughout the
empire. Dissent, in all its forms has
not, only been discouraged, but in
many cases rigorously repressed, and
ii ha onlv been durin late vears that
general toleration na- uwu peiunutm.
The Roman Catholic Church, forming
the largest body of dissentients ha
been the object of especial severity,
particularly under tiie Czar Nicholas.
The next largest body of dissenters
is generally called the Raskolniks,
but they style themselves OKI Believ
ers. They withdrew from the church
at the time that changes were intro
duced into its ritual by the Patriach
Nikon, and they have never Agreed to
acknowledge the Czar as head of the
church. They have often been severe
ly persecuted by the government. The
established church is still granted some
especial privileges. None of its mem
bers are allowed to secede to another
denomination, and all children of
mixed marriages are declared to be
under its control. In other respects,
under the laws of Alexander II., all
Catholics and Pi-otestants enjoy equal
civil rights with members of the estab
lished church, and ara equally admis
sible to the. highest offices of the em
pire, while even unconverted Tartars
are allowed to hold military offices.

REALISM IN FICTiON.
The Art of Interesting I'eople in the Com
mon Things of Kvery-Day l.ir-.
it requires a great deal more imagi
nation to write a realistic novel than
Ui write a fairy-tale: because the ob
ject of a realistic story is not to repeat
common things, but to interest people
iu, common things; not to create un
common things, but to show people
that common things are not by any
means so uninteresting as they seem
at first sight. The realistic writer must
see, not new things, but r.ew qualities
iii things; and to do that, he must
have plenty of imagination. Those
whom you call "old-fashioned writers"
imagined that they must describe the
thoughts and looks and clothes and ac
tions of a Princess, or some creature
out of the range of Very-day life: but
the realistic writers have discovered
that the thoughts and clothes and looks
and actions of a little beggar-girl can
lie made just as interesting to people,
if only you can see what is unseen
alxiiit them with your mind's eye.
Now, which would you say had really
the nobler imagination a man who
went into his library and wrote a re
markable poem alxmt the golden ap
ples of the Ilesjiftrides, that were pure
creations of his fancy, or Sir Isaac
Newton when he went and sat down
under a common appletree, and set his
imagination to work to find out
what made the apple fall to the ground?
The realistic writer is satisfied with the
very-day apple tree that is quite cer
tain; but' here is your mistake about
him, he isn't satisfied with telling you
that the apples fell; he shows yon how
they fell, and what a great, beautiful,
wonderful law of the universe caused
them to fall ; and he makes you feel
that the law was all the more lieautiful
and wonderful for not applying merely
to one particular apple, or even to the
whole class of apple trees, but to every
thing.
A little while ago you spoke of one of
Mr. Howells heroines who tried to do
something and couldn't. I suppose yon
mean the poor rich girl who lrt all her
money, and found that all her tine edu
cation did not help her a bit when it
came to earning her living. Now if Mr.
Howells had merely meant by that to
show girls how absurd it was for them
lo try to do any thing, it would have
leen a very cruel story; but I think he
merely meant to show the parents what
scrappy sort of education they were giv
ing t heir daughters, with all the money
they were spending for it- "
The red color of bricks is due to
the iron contained in the clay. In the
prosess of burning the iron compounds
are changed from the ferrous to the

Milwaukee, for instance, contain little

Plain and reversible pivot and fancy Ot-:
toman ribbons in two colors, with lace
finished edge, are lavishly used on tea
dresses trimming the entire fronts of
matinees in "thatch-work," with gar
niture for bodice and sleeves to cor
respond. Loops of ribbon are em
ployed . to edge the new Hungarian
bodices of plain velvet, and row upon
row of narrow loops aro frequently
laid across the edge of satin kiltings
as a finish. Similar loops are then
set d'vn the front of the corsage,
mingling with the lace garniture, the
cascades of ribbon and lace decreasing
in width as they reach the belt. This
gives an effective finish to a gown,
however simple its character, and is
generally becoming. Velvet, satin or
moire ribbon, with picot edges, aro
also laid in flat rows over the plain
outlines and border! ngs of gowns made
of light-weight summer wools in alba
tross vailing, camel's hair and the
like.
Although the price of a genuine
Irish poplin may seem very high at
the time of its purclrase, it - must be
remembered that in point of wear, it
outlasts two silk gowns, and as this
material, when made up. requires lit
tle if any trimming, it is on that ac
count undoubtedly economical. The
garnitures requireJl for many fabrics
are often more expensive than the ma
terials itself. Poplin of 4he modern
weave is so soft, flexible, and rich look
ing, falling in such grateful folds in its
drawing, that it needs no extraneous
additions. Its charm lies in itself, and
when unadorned it is adorned the
most. Many women prefer the very
finely-ribled qualities, thinking that
they wear bctler lhan th heavier
cords. For dinner gowns or wedding
loi.eissome oi me paie nau-ums are ,
exquisite, the sheen on their surface i

TREATING THE TJROHG DISEASE.
Many times women call on their family physicians, suffering, ss thry imagine, one from dyspepsia, another from heart disease,
another from liver or kidney dis-ase, euother from nervous exhaustion or prostration, another with pain here or there, and tit
this way they all present alike to themselves and their easy-going and indifferent, or over-busy doctor, separate and distinct disc,
for which bo prescribes his pills and potions, assuming tliem to be such. when, in reality, tbey are all only sympftm caused by sodw
womb disorder. The physician, tiniorant of the cause of suffering, encourages his practice until hu?re bills are made. The sufferiuat
patient gets no bettor, but prolwbly worse by reason of the delay, wrong treatment and consequent cntnplittitioiM. A proper sixlu,
like Dr. Pierce's Favorite Irrcript Ion, drrTfcl tn tns raurr- would have entirely removed tbe disott.se, thereby dupeiUAu ail tooeo
