It is not only with regard to litera ture .that esaiesEive strictness of the cen sorship has a disastrous effect. In Bus Eia it is impossible to believe what one reads, for everything bears the impress of falsity. Statistics, published by su preme oraer, are laisined, and no one knows what is going cn in the country, whether the cholera is raging or the peasants are famine stricken. Conse quently the people suffer indirectly far want cf relief during famine, while the cnoiera may ne spread oroadcast over the land. For instance, the writer "visit ed Nijni Novgorod at the time of the great fair there, and found that the cholera was raging, and had been for some time. Notwithstanding this, the government published no statistics of cholera in .Nrjni, but gave that town a clean biU of health, at the risk of spreading the disease, all over Euro pean Bnssia and Asia, and with the be nevolent object in view of not interrupt ing the business of the market. Thus all this secrecy causes raarerial harm. Distress and famine, existing in outlying districts, are kept secret, and the wretched peasants perish for want of that assistance which they would re ceive from charitable people if their re quirementK were made known. Further, no comments are allowed to be printed on the actions of civil or military offi cers, police or any government officials, and there is consequently little to- pre vent them abusing their power, a privi lege of which they frequently avail themselves. Such being the case, and the .Russians being an Asiatic nation in many of their characteristics, it is not surprising that the administration of the country is corrupt to the core. West minster He view. Marriace Ceresaozy la Swedes. Although Cupid runs riot in all climes, his ways and meansjdiffer. And to those foreign to the country some of the marriage ceremony would hardly seem in keeping with so sacred and solemn a service. In Sweden -and Norway the bride is dressed in her wedding garments and placed in the middle of the room, sur rounded by a circle of bright lights. Then the villagers enter, and walking around the bride audibly comment upon her appearance, character and prospects. Occasionally some young fellow will say: "Well, she's to be married at last. About time, I think. It's the first offer she's had since I jilted her." " res, another will interject ; "I pity the man who will marry her." "But doesn't she look old, though?" a third will add, and this rurming fire is kept up far an hour or so. But all is patiently borne by the bride. Finally every one is ordered out of the roo. and then the wedding ceremony is per formed. When it is finished, a tin dish is placed before the bride, and what is known as the 'cradle tax" is collected. Her father places a banknote and two silver-spoons in the dish, and the guests all contribute money or silver gifts. Then a procession forms, which escorts, the bride and groom to their home, each person carrying a lighted candle. Then it's all over, and like the good old fairy tales they lived happily ever afterward at least let us hope so. Grocer's Magazine. .

On the con trary, she took it down to her mother, half crying. "What is it, darling?" her mother asked. And Aggie, trembling violently, hand ed it to her to read When her moth er had read it Aggie laid that fluffy head on her shoulder and sobbed aloud. "Now it comes tothe pinch, mother," she said, quivering, "it seems so hard to go, so hard to leave you and sail alone so far across' the sea. Five years ago it didn't You see, itrs so long since J saw dear Phil he seems almost like a stranger. I can't bear to think I've got to leave you all and go away 5,000 miles to a stranger even though I love him. He may be so awfully changed, you know. His photograph's quite-aMered. -And he may think me sc different now from his own, ideal' cf ne." - Her mother gazed at her in speechless surprise- 'Five-years are not nearly so long at GO as at three and twenty. "But surely, Aggie," she said, "you wouldn't be so ungrateful to our dear Phil as to thrawvhim over now and re fuse to go out to him he who has been true to you so long and behaved so gen erously I It would break his heart, poor fellow? It would just break his heart, for him 1 Think of him there, toiling and moiling and saving and scraping, out in India so long, and dreaming of you all the while and writing- every mail to you I Why, Aggie, what can you mean? You could never refuse him." "Befuse him I Oh, dear no, mother!" Aggie faltered out, quite shocked her self at the bare suggestion. "I didn't mean that.

Fm trying to picture him now as five years will have made him." -airs. Oswald gave a sign or aauues relief- It wouldjreally have been terri ble if Aggie had lost five years of her life and the best years, too on this clever young fellow in the Indian civil and then thrown him overboard. At 23, after such a long engagement, her chances of placing herself would be se riously impaired. And though she had other opportunities, and was made much of everywhere, yet Philip was really a very eligible young man and a depcty collector! Mrs. Oswald set herself forthwith to check, by every means she knew, these vague misgivings. Aggie must not be encouraged in her doubts about PhiL She must be made to feel she was in honor bound to go out and marry him. CHAPTER HL While he waited for his answer at his up country station Phil Gilman hfm.cpTf had half hoped Aggie might by this time see things in the same light as he did ; she might perhaps be willing-to release him from an engagement which had ceased to be a reality to either of them No doubt she, too, had changed a great deal meanwhile, and there Phil was quite right; Aggie had deepened and broad ened from a girl into a woman. She was no longer tno mere Jignt nearted, fluffy headed coquette, leading a butter fly existence in. Bayswater ballrooms. Pretty and rosy cheeked and cherry lipped as of yore, she bad developed meanwhile three additional features a mind and a will and a decided con science. These very acquisitions, however, fur ther strengthened as they were by her mother's exhortationsled Aggie tc sac rifice herself, a modern Ipbieenia, oa the altar of duty, and to write Phil Gil- man a letter in return, all replete with ardent expressions of delight and con st ancy.-1 E was a letter to thrill a lover's heart with joy. Phil Gilman. read it with very modified rapture. Not that he was quite sure he wasn't in love with Aggie even now. Till he saw her how could he say? He might be, and he mightn't He had been in love with the Aggie he had left behind ; he would perhaps be in love with the Aggie who was coming out to him. But after fiva ang years and at zJ, too you muse confess it's a lottery. So he waited in no small tremor of doubt and misgiv ing. What a terrible thing if he had to tie himself for life, out of pure chival ry and to prevent disappointing her, to tangled mass of fluffy brown hair, with nothing else inparticular an earth to recommend it I When a man thinks like that, you may be tolerably sure his affections have . somehow declined a trkSe from their youthful ardor. However, PhU put the best face upon it, like a gentleman, and waited vwith outer calm at his up country station. He waited a week; then, reflecting that he must meet his bride at Bombay, he ap plied far a month's leave, hi the time honored way, "on urgent private busi ness:" His excellency was pleased to grant the request, and Phil Gilman went down to Bombay, accardimgly, jsruch trembling in soul, to meet his -Mgie. j Of course ht couldn't go to the house j cf the friend with whom Aggie wa to j stop in the snort interval between her arrival and her marriage, so he put up with, another acquaintance of official Itxk.

He had been. Irriag- for three years in z up country statica, where he had never GBce seen a real live white woman, and "BBder sach circumstances the mere sight of one s feTow countrywomen (believe ee who has "'tried) is a delight and a icy to one. And then she was so beau tiful, with such a high type of rntellec tml beauty; no mere fluffv haired schoolgirl, with red cheeks and lips, hat a genuine woman, with soul in her face and a pervading sense of grace and dignity in all her movements. When she stepped forward and smiled and held out her hand to him, Phil!s heart sank instantly. To think that in a world which incloses such infinite possibilities as these he should have tied himself down blindfold for it was really blind fold to 53 years cf pretty Aggie Os wald! The vision of beauty stepped forward and held out one frank hand "Mr. Gilmanr" she said inquiringly. "Ah, yes, I thought so. My uncle's so sorry, but he had to go out, and he ask ed me to receive you. You've heard my name, I dare say; I'm his niece iliss Trevelyan." '"" Phil accepted the proffered hand with some slight misgivings he was so very dusty and I blnsh to write it, but something much like a little thrill of delight ran through him at touch of her slender fingers. If poor Aggie (at Port Said) could have seen her lover just that moment, she would have turned back that very day and returned by the homeward bound mail to London, though, to be sure, poor Aggie herself was that moment engaged in a very desperate and heartfelt flirtation with but I will not anticipate. Phil looked down, at his coat and stammered out feebly some inarticulate apology. I'm really not fit for ladies1 soci ety," he murmured, with a glance at the landed estate. "From Punna here Freda Trevelyan smiled.- "Oh, we've all done it ourselves," she answered. X came from Punna last week, so I know how to sympathize with yom. One feels as if the Indian ocean didn't hold enough water ever to wash one quite clean again. I won't ask vou into the drawing room now and keep you sitting there m discomfort. You'd better go up to your own room at once, and as soon as you've goTHd of the first few Livers a cup of teal! be ready down hare for you." She Eaid it with a friendly smile thai wae the warmest of welcomes. Phil Eurabled up stairs as best he could, and 3penS.his portmanteau. He was a good looking fellow, with a most manly mus tache, and I'm bound to admit he took more pains over his dressing that even ing- than was strictly necessary or in deed desirable in Aggie's interest. He endued himself with care in his best afternoon coat and Ms newest imported European tie, and he surveyed himself approvmalvin the glass before he de- Eendedwith slow steps to the drawing room. I ra sure I den t know what an encaged young raan could mean by tak ing so ranch pains over his personal ap pearance; he could certainly have taken no more if it was Aggie herself, not a strange young lady, who awaited ftfm in the drawing room. When he went down he found Freda Trevelyan already seated before a most hospitable teapot You must have- lived in a hot climate as least once in your life in order thoroughly to appreciate the art of tedriukiiig.

"That won't do," she answered again. "I hope my lover, if I ever get one, won t talk like that. I never could stand it. I shall require him to be des perately, wildly in love with met If he tries to be philosophic, why, he'll have to go elsewhere !" Phil was just on the point of answer ing, "Ah, but if a man was in love with you that would be altogether different," but politeness, to say the truth, rather than loyalty to Aggie, prevented him from voicing the thought that was in him. "Besides," Freda went on, "if you were very much in - love at least as I count it you wouldn't have said you'd bring her photograph down, when you nextwent up. You'd have rushed up for it at once, that very moment, and ex hibited it with pride and joy and confi dence. And you wouldn't have said it was kind of me to want to see her. You'd have taken it far granted everr human being was dying to behold her beautiful face, and you'd have consider ed it a great favor to me to show me her portrait." Phil langhed inspire e himself. "You're quite right," he said frankly. That's just how I felt some four or five years ago. But ono. can't keep it up to that white heat, you know at least not" 'At least not, when?" Freda put it as herresitated. Well, at least not when you don't see the girl you love for five years or thereabout,'.' Phil answered, with rare candor. Oh, ilr. Gilman, " Freda cried, "I'm afraid you're very fickle!" No; not fickle," Phil answered. growing hot and red. He couldn't bear to be called perfidious by such beautiful hps. He couldn't bear such lovely eyes to look so reproachfully across at him. Then he leaned forwird gravely. "Hiss Trevelyan," he said, with some earnest ness, "your-mustn 't thing or me use that. I really cculdu't bear that you should imagine me wanting in due sonsideratiau far Aggie. But, remem ber, wo were young we were both very young when I went away from Eng land Aggie was 18, and I was one and twenty. Naturally I hardly know what sort of girl she may have grown into by this time. Naturally she can hardly know what sort of man she's going to marry. He paused a second Then he spoke still more seriously. "At the time we both loved one another dearly. It was heartrending to part. If we'd married then and there, we should no doubt hrrve gone on loving one another just as dear ly to this very day. But then we should have seen a great deal meanwhile of each other. As it is, conceal it as we may from ourselves, we must meet as strangers. My first anxiety will be to see what kind of girl has come out to marry me. Aggie s nrst anxiety will be to see what kind of man she has come out to marry. May I speak to you frank- ly only in self defense, you know, and to repel your charge cf fickleness? Well, till the moment arrived when I could send home far Asnrie, mv one feeline was a longing to be able to marry her. I locked at her photograph day and night with a distinct rapture. I looked at it often. It gave me a thrill to look at it It was only on the very day that I wrote home to ask her to come out to me that another side to the question first occur red to me. Then I thought to myself, all at once, it's not the Aggie of today Fm looking forward to see at all, hut the Aggie of five years ago. "What reason have T to think she will he to-me now at all the same person? I loved the girl of 18 when I TeftFuglaad. and if that girl could come out to me now I would love her just equally. But how do I know I shaH love the girl of 23 who now bears the same naae? And if I find her altered cut of all recognition what a terrible thins for her! What a terrible thingfarme! What a blow for both of us I Hew appalling to feel you're mar rying a woman you don't really lave I How appalling far her to be marrying a man who can't really love her I We're taking one another sow in the dark, put the best face you can apoa it." "You're too frightened, Mr. Gflnura," Freda answered, with that fTiarmfrrg FTaile of hers. "The moment yost see her, the moment she sees you, all your old love wfll return again with a rush. Fm sure it wfflf because I can see you're in earnest.
