popularity; the warm breeze of freedom
compels him to take it off.
The national popularity of the Jews
has been especially preserved in the
Orient and East Europe tits unneces-
sary to give the reasons for they are 80
glazing. The spirit Of the tribe does
not belong to the Jew in the Orient.
One can find it more or less among all
the Jewish religious communities that
form like 80 many nations Of which each
has her laws and her customs. The
jews Of the East of Europe remain in
this regard half Orientals. Even to. day
the habit of banding together betrays
itself among them in different ways, and
often it placards itself in some way even
to the dress. In many European coun-
tries, in Asia and in Africa, in Poland,
in little Russia, in Rommania, in Pales-
tine, in Tunisis, the Jews wear parti-
cular costume, as if to DO distinguished
from the other inhabitants of the coun-
try from the Christian and Musulmans.
This is also, one can say, an Oriental
custom. In the orient, the costume is
like profession of faith, or q national
flag, Which everyone unfurls in bright
daylight the leaving off Of the costume
would almost mean apostasy. A book
treating on the garments, among the
Jews would make curious book which
ought to tempt the amateurs of the pic
turesque; one could find no doubt,
rich Israelite who would defray it's ex-
penses. The way they dress has varied
strangely, in accordance with the coun
tries and epochs. One could not say
that they have a ma ional costume.
They have only local costumes, for I
have seen in the Orient, Jews and Jew
esses of different origin in the same
town wear garments of different shapes.
The shape and form of their garments
has changed repeatedly, nearly every.
where often it was forced upon them.
For the most part the actual cosiume of
the Jews is but the old costume of the
land wherein they dwelt or the country
whence they came. The Jew has pre-
served it, when everyone around it has
left it of, true to the old usages he did
not follow the fashions. Also in this,
the conservative spirit of the large Jew
ries has been manifested. But there ia

Rheumatism, Kidney. Hears and Lung
Difficulties,
as we'll as all other diseases which afiict hui
mainly. From many years experience, ex-
tending through the various epidemics,
among which is that dreaded La Grippe, he
is enabled to so build up the constitution and
bring the various organs in such harm onious
relation each to the other, to form bar
rier against the approach of those insidious
diseases which have made such snd inroads
upon the human family during the past few
years.
Drugs and alcoholic stimu1ants form no
part of the remedies applied. he depends
entirely upon the VEGETABLE KINGDOM
for the production of those Roots, Banks and
Herbs, the administration of which has
dered his name familiar household
words.
The doctor still continues to give a thor
ough and complete diagnosis in each case of
all diseases and their cause without previous
