An old Jewish Custom.

At the home of a welI-known Jewish
citizen was recently seen n tiny flame
burning in handsome goblet. Exam
ination showed the goblet to. be half
filed with water, on the top of which
hoated about an inch of pure olive OIL
A miniature float of corl1s, fastened on
either side of metallic ring, rested
upon the oil. On the ring was placed a
wax taper. hardly thicker than a
thread, passing through a small circle
of thin wood SO that the lower end of
the thread dipped through the ring into
the olive oil. The upper end of the
taper was lighted, as above men
toned. The oil drawn up through the
wax-covered taper served to keep
il alight for several hours

When that taper burns nearly out we
will substitute another, so that the
fame, like the vestal fire, never goes

attend to these lights with great care,
thus keeping alive the memory of our

EXPENSIVE REcREATIoN.
4 Man who Built Houses MS . Means Ol
e

Diversion 49, .+5, -..ft
A prosperous merchant who had meyer
given himself any recreation and had
thought of nothing but business, dis
covered awhile ago that he had fallen
into a rut- His health was impaired
and he was beginning to worry; he
needed rest and he got it by taking up
more work. He owned some land in
the suburbs. and he thought he would
build house. ~
After the plans had been drawn"
he said, 81 decided to superintend the
building myself. I had never built a
house, and, as anybody who ever has
built one will understand, had, while
engaged in the work, ample occupation
to the exclusion of all other cares. When
/ went to the house, which was at some
distance from the railroad. walked
from the station and back and got
more exercise than had had IN years
Altogether, the building of the house
was great help. The change was re-
freshing, and found myself going at
my regular business with new vigor. 0
81 sold that first house as soon as il
was finished. Since then I have at diff
ferent times built ten more, and have
sold all but five; of these, four are rent
ed. I have made a little money on the
houses, but the real profit has been in
tn diversion which the building of
them has afforded. ''-N. Y. Sun.
