In speaking of the great number Of
successful chess players Of the Jewish
race, and of the contest between the
two Jews. Lasker and Steinitz, for the
championship of the world, The Jewish
Chronicle dwells upon certain traits
which are prominent in the Jewish char
acter 1t maintains that the Jews are
the best chess players because of their
possession of mental qualities which
have always been useful to the race
such, for example, as quickness of APP
prehension, tenacity of purpose, readi-
ness in the application of resources, the
power of estimating probabilities and
an intuition which enables them to seize
the opportune moment for developing
action. These traits of mind have been
marked in all the Jews who have won
fame and fortune in the playing of

Second Wind.

The following is an explanation Of
the athletes second wind, +" from Out
ing: When we are walking about, we
only use our lungs partially, sometimes
only one, but when we commence to
hurry or run we draw our breath faster,
causing both lungs to gradually develop.
During the time that this process is go
ing ON we get our second wind. Now,
should man not use his lungs in run
ming for length of time they will get,
so to speak, rusty, and it will be with
great difficulty that he will get his
breath properly, If an athlete is proper
ly trained, he will not feel the least
difference from start to finish in a long
race. Directly he commences to run
both lungs will open to the full.
Experience In long distance running
proves the above correct. have noticed
after each cessation of few weeks that
my lungs were not so free; consequent
ly underwent the process of getting
my second wind, " and as l practiced
and got In better trim my lungs opened
better, and breathing became easier with
each run Second wind" is the full
use of both lungs.

TIE ARAB AND TIE JEW.
An Oriental Critics View of Two of the
Weekly Papers of New York.

An Oriental Critics View of Two of the
Weekly Papers of New York.
A Jewish professor who is versed in
the oriental languages looked over two
weekly papers printed in this city, one
of them in the Hebrew language, with
Hebrew characters, and the other in the
Arabic language, with Arabic charac-
tiers. Look" he said as he placed the
two pretty sheets together, lat the
peculiarities of the type used i'll them.
Take notice Of the power, breadth,
depth, rectangularity and solidarity of
the Hebrew type Take notice of the
Saracenic delicacy, the ornateness, the
subtlety, ingenuity and curvedness Of
the Arabic type.
1.-THE contrast between them is very
suggestive. Again, the reader who
studies the style of the literary compo-
sitions in the two papers will notice
that Hebrew thought is broad, strong
and upright, like the Hebrew charac-
tiers, while the Arabic thought is sinu-
GUS, tenuous and ornate, as the Arabic
characters. The differentiation Of the
Hebrew from the Arabic, both in the
forms of the type and in the expressions
of the mind, will strike every critic
who places the two papers together, looks
at them closely and makes a study Of
their contents. Yet both the Hebrew
and the Arabs belong to the Semitic
race and are monotheists. History and
circumstances must be taken into ao-
count when tracing the characteristic
differences between the two branches Of
the family. New York Sun.
