There are good many matches being
made among the girls who sell water,
peanuts, popcorn. rings, fruit, photo.

and thousand other articles, and the
young men who purchase these articles.
Thus, one young man was discovered
with bundle in his hand.
"What have you got there?" he was
asked.

"Of yourSelf?"

And this young man went his way.
The next day, it is probable. he pur-
chased more photographs, and finally he
doubtless desired permission to add her
own to the collection.
There used to be certain fruit seller
at the fair, who has since gone home.
who always sold more fruit than any
one else. She was tall and dark, and
she wore a great shock of curly black
hair that she failed to tie up. Her booth
was iD an exposed position, and breeZeS
from the lake used to toss her hair
about her head. 1t was great sight TO
see. She presided over mounds Ofgold-
ell and purple California fruits, but
she herself was the most beau
tiful fruit of all. There was
Columbian guard who has
also since gone home, and his sta
ton was near the fruit stand-yes, it
was very near it. If he guarded moth
ing else, he guarded the fruit. A fine
looking and pleasant-spOken guard he
was, and he evidently liked his station.
but after the handsome fruit seller went
home, the guard was no longer there,
and an inquiry revealed the fact that
he had resigned from the force. Maybe
her home and his are now the same.
THE GIRLS ARE PRETTY.
These worlds fair girls may be said to
average pretty. Among the visitors
pretty faces are not the rule. Ii for
eigner wishes to see the pretty women,
for whom America is so famous, he
should not be satisfied with what he sees
in the crowds at the fair. Pennsylvania
avenue, or Connecticut avenue, or F
street, shows more pretty girls in an
afternoon than the moving crowds at
the fair show in week. but the girls
who belong IN the fair--who are part
of it, in fact - are pretty. The
truth is, that it is necessary that they be
pretty. Who can thoroughly enjoy

carelessly attired hands it to you? But

TAKING A DAY OFF,

It's too hot for the birds to sing. for by the
splashin' rills
Where shaded honeysuckles swing, they're
coolin of their bills;
For they sang till they were tired in the
blossoms and the sun.
And now they've took day off where the
sweeter waters runl
It's too hot for the cattle in the sweiterin'
meadows there,
Where every sunbeam's like a sword a.
cleavin' through the air;
And so. they've lett the clover, where the
daisies droop and dream,
And they're knee deep inthe branches where
the coolin' waters stream !
Too hot deep in the valley; too hot upon the
hill;
Each lilys nftin' of It's cup for welcome
rains to fill;
But still, the crops are growin' and the clouds
that burn the blue
Are the clouds that did the snowin and
they'll snow again for you!

ERRORS ABOUT JEWS.
A Rabbi on the Changes Caused
by Intermarriage.

n haDDl on the ChangeS caused
by Intermarriage.
Rev. Silverman in Menorah.
Hebrew is the name of an ancient
race from which the Jew is descended,
but there have been SO many admiX-
lures to the original race that scarcely
a trace of it exists in the modern Jews.
Intermarriage with Egyptians, the vari-
Gus Canaanitish nations, the Median-
ties, Syrians, ETC., are frequently
mentioned in the Bible. There
have also been additions. to
the Jews by voluntary conver-
sions such as that in the eighth century,
of Bulan, prince of the Chasars, and his
entire people. We can, therefore, not
be said TO be distinct race today. We
form no separate nation and no faction
of any nation. We form merely an in
dependent religious community. We
are often charged with eXclusiveneSs
aud clannlShneSS, with having only mar
row, tribal aspirations, and with being
averse to breaking down social barriers.
Few outside of that inner close circle
that is to be met in the Jewish home or,
social group know aught of the Jews
domestic happiness and social virtues.
If there is any clannishness in the Jew,
1t is due not to any contempt for the
outside world, but to an utter abandon
to the charm of home and the fascination
of confreres in thought and senti-
ment. However. if there is remnant
of eXclusiveness in the Jew of today, is
he TO blame for il? Did he create the
social barrier? The fact that Jews are.
as rule. averse to intermarriage with
non-Jews, has been quoted in evidence
OF Jewish eXclusiveneSs. The historical
tact is that the Roman Catholic council,
held at Orleans in 533 A. G. E., first
prohibited Christians to intermarriage
with Jews. This decree was later en-
forced by melting out the penalty of
death to both parties to such union.
Jewish raObis, then, as a matter of self
protection, interdicted the practice of

YOU'D BETTER CHERISH HIM.

There are husbands who are pretty,
There are husbands who are witty,
There are husbands who in public are as
smiling as the morn;
There are husbands who are healthy,
There are husbands who are wealthy.
But the real angelic husband, we'll, he's
never yet been born.
Some for strength oflove are noted,
Who are really so devoted,
That wheue'er their wives are absent they
are lonesome and forlorn;
And while now and then you'll find
one
Who's fairly good and kind one,
Yet the real angelic husband, o, he's never
IS yet been bornl
4 So the woman who is mated

As pretty fair. should cherish him forever

THE BIG FIGHT.
National Sporting Club, of London,
VIII Make Arrangements.

LONDON, Oct. q. - Inquiry at the
residence of the manager of
the National Sporting club today
elected the fact that he
was confined to his room suffering from
lumbago. The manager, when asked if
the club would take any interest in the
New York cablegram asking what
purse would be offered as an induce
ment for Mitchell and Corbett to
fight in this city, said he was
unable to say definitely what the club
would do. or what 1t would offer, with
out consulting the directors. He added
that the meeting of the board of direct
orS which was to have been held to-
day had been postponed until tomor-
row on account of his sickness. when
the telegram received from Dave Hol-
laud. the New York sporting man, will
be taken up and acted upon.
The manager admitted, however, that
he had cabled to Mr.. Holland that all
arrangements will be kept secret, as the
club does not want the police to inter
fere with its negotiations for a match
between the two pugilists.

TRINITY CHURCH.
At Trinity church, Sunday morning, Rev.
A. II. Webb, the pastor, preached with par
ticular reference to Christmastide from
words found in the thirty-second and thirty
third verses of the first chapter of Luke:
He shall be great, and shall be called the
son of the Highest; and the Lord God shall
give unto him the throne of his father
David; and he shall reign over the house of
Jacob forever; and of his kingdom there
shall be no end" The greatness of the
kingdoms of Caesar and Alexander were re-
ferred to and compared with the impTegnable,
imperishable kingdom of God which stands
in the light of the Eternal One, with victory
perched upon its banners, eXulting in the
prospect of grander triumph. In closing,
the speaker gave an earnest eXhortatiOn to
his hearers to look to Jesus, who is able and
willing to save his people from their sins.
In the evening, musical service, entitled
" The King in Zion" was finely brought
out by a trained choir under the direction of
Wesley G. Tapin. Rev DR.. E. NJ Smith as
sisted the pastor in the responsive readings.
The musical service included quartette
and chorus singing and solos by Mrs. Wal
ter j. Taplin and w. G.. Tapln. The vestry
was packed on Monday evening, when the
cantata, Santa Claus is Coming" was adj
mirably brought out, The principal parts
were taken as follows: Santa Claus, Bruce
Mcdonald; Jack Frost, Freddie Keegan;
Queen of the Fairies Claribel Hunt Teacher,
Albert e. Niles, A chorus of twenty five
little folks was intelligently directed by
Wesley G Taplin with Mrs. j. f. Water
man as pianist and Miss Fannie Parmenter
rs viOlinst. The patient training of the
children by Mr.. Taplin was manifest
throughout the entire entertainment. The
cantata included solos by Katie Fuller,
Marian Marvin, Annie Mavo, Nellie Par
menter, Alice Sherburne, Ethel Hayden,
and recitations by Susie Stearns, Myrtle
Thornton, Ina Brockwell, Jessie Marvin,
Alice Sherburne, Freddie Keegan, and Earl
Williams. The distribution of gifts from
two trees was by far the most interesting
part OF the programme to many in the
audience.

Farmers Meeting at Ryegate.

A most successful farmers meeting was
held at Ryegate, December u and %, by the
state board of agriculture, assisted by Hon.
NJ. w. Davis of Westminster, former
member of the board. The meeting was
called to order by Secretary Winslow, and
L. A. Meader was elected chairman. An
address of welcome was given by Rev..
Daniel Harris, when the subject of roaf<
building was taken up by j. o. Sanford Of
Stamford. Mr.. Sanford is thoroughly alive
on this subject, and advocates following
the custom of railroads in giving one man a
small section to look after and hold him re-
sponsible for the result.
In the afternoon the DAIRY Cow was
taken up by III. w. Vail of Pomfret Mr.
Vail confessed that he was only a student
in dairying, but the manner in which he
handled this subject proved that he was
pretty far advanced in that line of educa-
ton, and the fact that he is one of the larg-
est breeders of thoroughbred Jersey stock
in the state made his remarks doubly inter-
estiug. The remainder of the afternoon
was taken up by NJ. w. Davis in one of his
practical talks on the winter care and man
agement of the dairy in which he sand " ich ed
in pro'e against the practice of dehorn-
ing, The evening session was attended by
large audience, and l.. c. Fisher of Cabot,
who has the champion dairy of the state,
with V. |. Spear of Braintree managed to
entertain the crowd in highly interesting
manner.
The forenoon of the second day was taken
up by G. M. Winslow OF Brandon on The
Outlook for Horse Breeding" Mr.. Wins
low is thorough Vermonter, and is there
fore in love with Morgan horse, and no
argument in favor of western horses will
make him disloyal to that love He con-
tends that the future looks bright for the
best types Of the Morgans, but always will
be duh for the culls. In the afternoon Pro-
fessor j. l.. Hills, director of the experi-
ment station at Burlington, gave an illus
trated lecture on milk testing, and tested a
few samples of milk brought in by farmers.
This was very interesting feature, and the
people of the state have reason for con-
graduation in having such "a man as Pro-
fessor Hills at the head of the experiment
station AT the evening session, Ii. NJ.
Arms gave very instructive lecture on
vermont at Chicago" touching ON the va
rious exhibits, not forgetting that state
building. He was follow ed by NJ. W. Da-
Wis in one of those all-around-talks which
only he knows how to give-amnsing
as well as instructive. These were inter-
spersed with music, songs and readings,
which held the close attention of the audi.
ence until late hour.
