a good citizen and TO make his
children Americans An old woman
who could speak neither English, Ger
man nor French, told the interpreter who
was with me that she had great pride in
her grandson, because, though he was
only 10 years old, he could write an Amer
lean letter. She was certain that he
would be a credit to the country where
he was living. Further inquiry proved
that they were all saving money to send
him TO college, and that they hoped to
make doctor Of him. ] never heard such
an expression among the Italians or tho
Chinese. 1t was alwaysa rapturous story
of how near they were TO the getting
money enough to go home. They didn't
care one jot for the country in which it
had been made, nor the people among
whom they lived. Consequently, do not
consider them good or desirable citizens.
AS A BUSINESS AND FAMILY MAN.
The faultfnder says that Jew is close
in his bargains. Why shouldn't he be-
That very Pathfinder, If he had the same
financial instinct, would be three times as
greedy, and not one-haf as generous.
The American goes out to have a good
time-for a day by the seashore, or
night at the theater. The chances are
ten to one he goes alone, or with party
of men. The Jew, If it is in the daytime,
takes not only his wife, but all of his
children. And the smallest boy has his
glass Of water, colored with little
claret, so that he gets used to wine early
in life, and / do not think even my fault
finding friend could find jew who is a
drunkard. If the festival is going to the
theater, then mother and any of the girls
who are old enough are taken along; the
best seats are bought, and after the the
ter is over, they go to have a jolly little
supper, and, best of all, they enjoy them
selves, for the Jew, unlike the Gentle, is
easily amused, and can find pleasure
among those of his own household.
THE JEWISH WOMAN is A GOOD WIFE
and good mother; she loves her husband
first of all, and then her children. This
is as it should be. The consequence is,
| you very seldom hear of divorces among
| the Jews, AS people, they love fun and
good living, and are willing to pay for
both. They are the best patrons the thea
tiers have; they adore good music, and
| even among the poorer classes, a little
| money will be saved, that the Oldest girl
may go to a course of fine concerts, and
! hear some really worth listening to.

THE EDUCATED JEW OF TO-DAY

way to exhibit his Christianity is to do
as the Romans did, and cruelty a man. |
said before that we all want to go 10
heaven. We, none of us, know just ex-
actly what it is, but we think of it as q
place Of rest. DO you think there win be
any rest for any of us If we are going to
say to any one of Gods creatures, ''Your
faith is wrong, mine is right" And then
! go through the world with an arrogant
air that announces that the belief held
consists in violent talk about it and no
actions. / have a pronounced belief, but

being who has another belief, and who
lives up to IL. He may be wrong, | may

help every other human being along the
pathway Of life, and to make 10 smooth
