Russian Customs —Many Muscovite celebrities never think of going to bed. They do not know how to "o to bed, most of them. An exof St. Petersbnrg, and a minister of state were both discovered between sbeet3 at one of the late emperor's palaces in full uniform, with their jack-boots and spurs on. A Russian peasant scarcely knows what the use of a bed means. He rolls himself up in his sheepskin anywhere and everywhere, and sleeps till he is hungry. He has no fixed hours of rest: and is as likely to be asleep at noonday as awake at midnight. A Russian household is never all asleep or all awake at the same time.
