SATURDAY AND SUNDAY.

The Jewish Tidings, an organ of liberal Judaism, has been advocating the institution of supplementary religious services on Sun day for Jews, not as substitute for the regular services on the Jewish Sabbath, but as a means of furnishing religious instruc- tion to those who are unable to attend the services on Saturday.
 Dr. Israel Aaron, of Buffalo, the Rev. s. H. Scnneschein, of St. Louis, ,and several promi- nent laymen interviewed in the Jewish Tid- ings strongly favor the holding of such ser vices. while Dr. Max Landsbsrg, of Roches- ter. favored holding religious services when ever people could be induced to attend, al- though he regarded the decline of attendance at synagogue worship on the Jewish Sabbath simply as a symptom of the universal want of religious sentiment of which Christians as the attendance at church and temple alikez He says that for the benefit of those who could not or would not attend on Saturday, Friday evening services have been held in his synagogue since 1874, but he has not found that those who neglected to attend on Satur- day hastened to avail themselves of the priv ileges of the Friday evening service.
 The most emphatic expression of hostility to the proposed Sunday services comes from the Rev. E. M. Meyers of Petersburg, Virginia, who says: do not object to week day, or "supplementary" service, as you term 1t. but I do most strongly ob- ject to the selection of the Christian Sabbath; being convinced that even could it succeed for time, whilst the novelty lasts, of attracting . crowd, 1t would either fail in the end, or else would become substitute for the Sabbath of Israel. It is just getting in the thin end of the wedge; and whilst some desire 1t with honesty of purpose, many of It's advocates who are not honest enough to openly advise a transfer of the Sabbath, are insiduously and knowingly promoting such change. Sunday, as Sab- bath, simply an ediot of Constantine, not even a gospel ordination, cannot demand reverence more than any other day; and its special selection for religious service is c quasi recognition of the purpose of it's insti' tuition, viz, the supposed rsscurreotion of Jesus, which we as Jews can neither honor nor recognize.
 This Is an interesting and significant dis eussion. It shows how liberal some of the Jews have become.

 Some remarkable achievements in surgery are reported from Berlin At the surgical congress Professor Gluok demonstrated the successful substitution of eatgut, ivory and bone freed from chalk, for defects in bones. muscles and nervous sinews. The juices of the body are sucked up in the inserted ma terial, thereby establishing the junction of the separated ends, without any shortening of the part. He presented the cases of patients in whom there had been an inser- tion of from six to ten centimeters of catgut to supply defects in the leaders of the hands, to which complete mobility had been re- stored. In the case of another patient Pro- lessor Gluck removed tumor from the thigh, causing considerable defect in the bone. He inserted ivory, and no shortening occurred. In another case he removed large piece of nerve in the groin and insert. ed catgut, and the functions remained com- pletely satisfactory.
 In an account which he gives of visit to Count Ito, one of the most famous of mod- ern Japanese statesmen, Sir Edwin Arnold relates the following incident in the history of the Count: At the time of the fierce st,ife which arose between the partisans of the Shogun and the loyalists, who were for re- establishing the ancient regime, Count Ito was paying his addresses to the lady who is now his wife, and while he was fugitive from his enemies there came a time when they had tracked him to her house. and had chosen band of soshis to assassinate him. The noise of their dogs and the rattling of their scabbards were heard, and the count, trapped like the royal stag in his mountain pleasaunoe, drew his BizsD blade and prepared to die as 8 Japanese lord should. amid circle of dead foes. But while he murmured "Ssynonara" and knitted his fingers round the shark-skin hilt of his sword, the brave lady whispered "Do not die; there is hope still," upon which she removed the hibatoh, or frebox, over which they were sitting, and lifting up the mating and the blanks beneath, induced her lover to conceal himself in the hollow space which exists under the foer of all Japanese houses. The murderers broke into the room-a ferocious band-just as the 6rebox had been replaced and the Countess had assumed 8 position of nOnchalance, They demanded their victim, and when she protested against their intrusion, and bade them search if they wanted Ito, the wretches dragged her about the apartment by her long, beautiful black hair-now touched with silver-and grievously maltreated her, but could not shake her resolute fidelity. Thanks to this, Count Ito, the hero of many another strange adventure, escaped from the chief peril of his career, and has lived to give his country new constitution and to be one of the foremost and best reputed statesmen of modern Japan.

HOPE FOR TEE FARmER,

"VF1I r Oxt - 1S Y EAx&MkHx
 It is pretty generally admitted that the present depression in farm products Is due to overproduction. This being the case>the farmer cannot expect permanent relief until consumption has caught up with production. It seems that we produce in excess of what we need corn for 5, 5,50O, ,000 people, wheat for 14,000,O00, cattle for 5000, 900 and swine for 11,000,000. But in all these the maximum has either been reached or the rate of in- crease has been so diminished as to show that the limit is not far in the future. The best lands are already taken up, and there is continual progress from the one.crop style of farming to 8 perm ansnt diversity of pro- ducts. This is especially true of the corn lands of the Missouri val- ley, where an unprecedented low price of corn prevails. Further exten- 6 ion of this production must be mainly by way of irrigation of arid plains. The same is true of wheat to a great extent. The mar vicious wheat fields of the Dakotas have already absorbed most of the desirable lands, and wheat culture has already passed the zenith of it's glory. In regard to cattle, farmers are continually providing the cattle men from their ranches, government re- fuses them their former privileges, storms have made sad havoc among the herds, and financial distress has compelled excessive marketing; all of which has cut down the rate of increase to such figures that rate of decrease may soon be looked for. The pros duction of swine may be expected to adjust itself to that of corn.
 Corn area is in creasing at the rate of one and two.tenths per cent. annually; wheat land is already dimlnishing; cattle are i'm creasing at the rate of only two and four- tenths per cent. as compared with six per cent. ten years ago, and even the present in- crease is mostly of miloh cows upon farms; while population increases at the rate of two and seven-tsnths per cent. annually. Soon, therefore, the disproportion that has ex- isted will be wiped out and the farmer be more prosperous and cheerful.

THE LADIES, LUNCHEON.
1t Frequently Rivals in Elegance th(
 Dinner of Ceremony.

Dinner of Ceremony.
 By process of evolution, almost as grad ual as that of the development of the human species, the early dinner has become merged into the luncheon, so that instead of the old formula of breakfast, dinner and tea, we have the modern one, which calls for breakfast, luncheon and dinner, the old-fashioned sup per being almost thing of the past, ,says the Jsnness-Miller Magazine.
 For many years after the luncheon became an established institution,it was the informal meal of the day, hurriedly eaten, and mostly composed of what had been left over from tho dinner. The luncheon of Sthe present, even en famille, has but little affinity with that of the past, often being as ceremonious and as carefully prepared as the late dinner. few men posses sufficient leisure to enjoy this rspast in their own houses.
 America can claim the honor of inaugural. ing the lady's luncheon, with its 10 courses, it's hand painted menus and its fower-be- decked tables. These lunches frequently ri- val in elegance and ostentation the diner de hauts oeremonie, the sole difference being that the ladies do not como in full dress. On these occasions they wear handsome visiting toi-
 
 course, removing the gloves, Dresses of heavy texture should be eschewed ,as the apartments in this country are generally overheated; the smaller and lighter the bonnet the more comfortable one is apt to be and there seems really no reason why it should be worn at all.
 As gentlemen are excluded from all parti- cipation in the ladies luncheon; 6 delightful absence of formslity is the result, and in con sequence the liberty of saying just what ono pleases is frequently abused. Often choice dish of scandal is served up with sauce piquante, but in the best house tho hostess frowns upon all unkind and fipant remarks, and if she is possessed of tact, she can readily turn the tide of conversation into some less dangerous channel. To discuss the short comings of one's servants and tho cute say ing of one's little ones Is both uninteresting and in very bad taste, when there are 50 many matters of current interest upon which one can converse.
