JEWISH HoLLiDAYs.-The whole of the
present month is series of holidays with
the Jews. The first ten days which follow
the new year, including Monday, the 10th,
are called the ten penitential days, and are
observed more or less by fasting and prayer,
and strict religionists paying the utmost
attention to the observance of this period.
The tenth day is called Yom Kif'ur-a day
of atonement. The synagogues are open
the night previous and during the entire
day following, during which time there is
fasting and prayer. On the 10Th of the
month comes Succoth, the Day Of Taber-
naeles, which is observed by fasting and
rejoicing. This continues for nine days
the first two and the last two being OBJ
served as holy.

CITY ITEMS.

To tho Many Friends of the cor.
phans' HOme.o
The cold and inclement season of the
year is Just upon us, and we find ourselves
lacking needful funds to meet the necessi-
ties Of the poor children committed to our
care. This being the case, we call earnest
ly upon the benevolent among us to come
to our help.
There are in the home ten children, all of
whom need clothing and food. The con-
slant rise in prices has used up our little
fund and thereby prevented our purchas-
ing supply for the winter, and we ask all
who have anything in the way of cast off
clothing, or surplus provisions Especially
farmers coming to market, who could and
would leave the remnants of their stock
with these orphans if they were aware Of
the benefit they would confer), to remem-
Der us. o avs II
We know there are constant demands
upon the public benevolence, yet our Home
is an institution of our own making, and
shall we by lack of doing, suffer II. to lam
guish and die, and the poor children to be
turned adrift upon the worldp No! Surely
there are enough that will come to our re-
lief If they knew our necessities.
Contributions can be left at No. - West
