fact, by the numerous Communications made

Jewish Dietary Laws.

Two articles from the pen of DR.. Henry Behr-
end and reprinted from the Je,cislt Chronicle in
the form of Il pamphlet, embOdy great deal of
matter Of the highest Importance to the health
of the community. The revolution that has for
some time past been going on in the ideas
which govern the treatment of various forms of
disease is. as most of our readers must be aware.
OF IA most subvertiye and radical nature There
is now, we suppose. no sort of doubt in the
minds of competent authorities that many of the
most distressing and fatal diseases are common
to men and the lower animals and DIR
Behrend has brought together great many
very striking facts and scientific testimonials
upon the subject 1t is not surprising that
competent ana intelligent Jews should be
rather strong in their convictions upon the
Importance OF this matter. It is a matter of
notoriety. and has been for a long time, that
jewish communities enjoy a remarkable I'M
nluhity. comparatively speaking. from many of
the direst scOurges of people outside their pale
The deaths from consumption, for instance, on
the opposite side of Whitechapel High street.
LOndOn-One side being inhabited entirely by
Jews aud the other by Gentiles-show q very
startling disparity. Similar differences have
again and again been brought out by statistics
bearing on various scrofulOus disorders. DR..
Bei,rend in common with many others. traces
much of their difference to the cOmmunlcability
he feeds ON, and to the further fact that by the
Jews the most rigorous sanitary precautions are
taken against the sale of infected meat. 1t ia
startling and significant fact but it is generally
admitted. we believe, that the latest researches
of science i'm this direction have pointed unmis-
takably to the Mosaic regulations with respect
to the official oversight of the supply Of animal
food If some OF the worst diseases known to
humanity are to be avoided. The writer of the
pamphlet alluded to makes an assertion which
may, perhaps. be too sweeping, but the truth of
which science certainly of late has tended
strongly to establish when he declares. ut is not
saying too much to assert that these laws"-the
dietary laws-''carried out in their in
tegrity, render the consumption of meat affected
with the specific maladies practically Impossible.
and especially eliminate every risk of the infec-
ton of urO-pneumonia, or of the anthrOcoid
and tubercuiOus diseases" There seems to be
every probability that eventually the wisdom of
adopting s8me at least OF the Mosaic sanitary
legislation via bssolae too apparent TO- bs
neglected.
