Tn the Slums of New York.

He who would see Mulberry Street in
the picturesque aspect it wears beyond
any other pointin these haunts of the
wretched, must approach it from Bay
ard Street, the chosen home of Jewry,
bristling with Hebrew signs, and vocal
with all the strange tongues the He
brew may choose to make his own,
the strangest of all being their own
"Jedish, the lingo made upon princi-
pies the philologist may not define,
and nsed in printing as well as speech.
Up to The moment in which the cor
ner of Mulberry Street is reached, one
is in Hebrew land; but, presto there is
sudden transformation. Southern
Italy and one of its market places lies
before one, and in spite of the fact that
sordid tenement bouses line either side
the illusion is complete. Saturday
morning above all is given to the open
air market, in which trucks and bar
rows of every description line the side
walks and fill the narrow streets. Ash
barrels often serve as counters from
which extraordinary commodities are
dispensed. The Italian scorns the house
save when it rains, choosing the street
as persistently as the Polish Jew avoids
it, and now they form never ending
procession, filling every available foot
of walk and street.
What do they sell? Tainted meat;
stale eggs bought by the pailful from
the marketman, who is glad to get rid
of them at any price, and bought here
by the spoonful for omelets made sa-
worry with oil and herbs. Here we find
poultry blue with age and skinny be-
yond belief; wilted vegetables; half
rotten or moldy fruit; fish long parted
from the water; strange weeds doing
duty as salads; all offering their share
toward the unspeakable odor that rises
to Heaven, and seems grateful to the
nostrils of the buyer. Stale bread
abounds, nor is it found in just such
fashion at another point. The sacks
containing it are old mattresses, at
least they are of bed ticking, and foul
as such antecedents would make them,
and in them are loaves of all sizes and
ages, sold weekly by down town bakers
at so much sackful. 1t is mot un-
wholesome" the health officers say,
only disgusting. g.-From I'm Mulberry
Bend and Beyond, in Demorest's Fam
lily Magazine for March.

A Time Worn Bible.

When Mr.. Roddenbury of Thomas
presented to the house of representatives,
the old time worn Bible that was used
in the days of long ago at the old capi-
tol down in Milledgeville, Mr.. Turner
of Putnam was sitting by the speaker
and picked up the book and began
turning its pages over.
Presently he looked up, smiling, and
turning to the speaker said: II do de-
clare, here is the handwriting of my
grandfather, who was clerk of the
house in these days. ] would know it
was his handwriting if saw it in Hall
fax. 1t is his own" On the page in
the front of the book was written.
''The law for those who make law.
The Bible was used in 1885. 1t was
printed in 1917 and is quaint old vol
ume. 1t has many curious inscriptions,
some in Latin and some in English,
Itwas found at the old capitol by
Captain J. Cotton Lynes, who for a
long time was the commandant of the
military department of the Middle
Georgia Agricultural college, which
now occupies the old capitol building
at Milledgeville.
He is now at Thomasville, college and
sent the book to Mr.. Roddenbury to
be presented to the house of represen-
tative. 1t was taken in charge by
Speaker Atkins and will be kept
sacredly by the head of the house in
days to come.-Savannah News.
