How Many Jews There Are.

The fifty sixth annual report for 1878
of the Berlin Society for the Promotion
of Christianity Among the Jews, has
lately been published. In the appendix
some interesting details are given re-
specting the distribution of the Jews all
over the world. The total number of
the Hebrew race to-day is about what
it was in the days of King David-be
tween 100000 and 100000. There
are in Europe, according to the latest
statistical information, about 100000;
in Asia, 100000; in Africa, over $4,000;
in America, from 100000 to |, 100000.
More than half Of the European Jews
-2,621,000-reside in Russia; 1,375,OO0
in Austria, of whom $4,000 in the
Polish province of Galicia; $4,000 in
Germany-61 900 in the Polish prov
ince of Posen; Roumania is credited
with $4,000, and Turkey with 100000.
There are 10000 in Holland, $4,000 in
England, $4,000 in France, $4,000 in
Italy; Spain and Portugal have be-
1000 and 1000; 1900 in Sweden,
twenty-five in Norway. Nothing is
Sdlu dOOuG D0IlLldrk OI OW1tZoTlduu.
The number OF Jewish residents in
Berlin is given at 45,000-nearly as
many as in the whole of France, and
more than in Italy, Spain, Portugal and
the Scandinavian peninsula altogether.
The majority Of the African Jews live
in the province Of Algiers.- But they
are to be found in Abyssinia and all
along the north coast, and even in the
Saharan GASES, frequently acting as in
termediaries between the Mohammedans
and Christians. Of the Asiatic Jews,
10000 are assigned to India and $4,000
to Palestine. The population of Jeru-
salem is given as 1000 Mohammedans,
5000 Christians and Ii, 500 Jews. These
last are classified as German, Spanish
or Arabic Jews. The report gives no
details concerning America, except that
in New York there are thirty syna-

LOcusts as Food.

St. Mark describes the diet of John
the Baptist as consisting of "locusts and
wild honey" Some commentators
have explained "locusts" as denoting
some kind of bread or wild fruit. This
is an error, for locusts are eaten as food
by many people in the East. A recent
writer on the curiosities of food accords
to the locust the first place, in the pure
~ insect world, as an article of diet.
He says:
from the remotest antiquity the
locust has been used for food witness
the sculptures of Assyria- and at the
present day they are devoured in enor-
NOUS quantities by many different races.
Yet there is wide divergence of opin-
ion regarding the value of locusts as
food. t3s
"Some travellers describe locusts as a
desperate makeshift; others as passa-
BILE; others, again, as resembling
shrimps in delicacy and flavor. They
compete with meat in the market of
Bagdad; they are called "terad" in
Yemen, and "anne" in Dancali, and they
are frequently used as food by the wan
dering tribes of Asia and Africa, who,
after broiling them, separate the head
from the body, and eat them as Western
nations do shrimps. In some parts of
Africa they are ground and made into
bread. In Senegal they are eaten by
the highest classes. They are the main
support of the bushmen of South
Africa."

In Districts Formerly Ravaped

Byfever and ague, immunity from the dreadful
scourge is enjoyed by those who have rendered
their systems malaria-proof with Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, the best preventive and rem
edy. Quinine cannot compare with it in eff
cacy, and is anything but safe. Physicians
recommend the Bitters for its remedial and re-
suscitanng properties, and the closest analysis
reveals nothing in the composition of a deleter-
ious nature. 1t does not deteriorate, is an
agreeable cordial as well as potent medicine,
and when mixed with brackish or unwholesome
water neutralizes it's hurtful properties. The
denizens of malarious localities, not only in the
United States but, the tropics, regard il as an
Invaluable protection, and in hosts of families
it is kept constantly on hand. AS the tide of
emigration spreads further westward the de-
mand for it among those compelled to encoun-
ter the vicissitudes of climate constantly ILL
creases. atE, 4..

The world of her thou lowest

Thy smile is her delight;
