Why Jews Cannot Be Christians.

The divine origin of Jesus can never find acceptance with our people. His claim also as the greatest teacher of hu- manity can never be substantiated as long as we have Moses and the prophets, Job and the Psalms Our laws come through the son of Amram, our exhor- tations to righteousness from the sacred seers, our submission to God s will from the dweller of Uz, our sweet sentiments of love and gratitude from the, royal |. singer ThesOld Testament indeed places emphasis on the element of righteous ness, yet love finds expression through out these writings particularly in the Psalms. Nowhere can we find a better definition-if definition be possible-of religion than in Micah's utterance, "He hath told thee, O man, what is good and what the Lord requireth of thee; only to do justice, to love kindness and to walk humbly with thy God" Hillel also taught the golden rule before Jesus. Have we not, for this and still better reasons chosen him as the exponent of Jewish ideal and practice? In studying his life and pondering upon his sayings can we not learn much of loving kind ness, gentlepess, humility and piety? The ethics of the fathers set forth what the Torah took us its premise, He that loveth God loveth his fellow beings; he that loveth his fellow beings loveth God. "-American Hebrew.

Cause of Legislative Decay.

All the great modern democracies have to contend almost for existence against the popular disposition to treat elective offices as representative and to consider it of more importance that they should be filled by persons holding cer- tain opinions than by persons most com petent to perform their duties. The dis tinction between representing and ad- ministering seems plain enough, and yet the democratic tendency has been ev- anywhere since the French revolution to obscure it. This has not unnaturally led to the idea that the offices are re- wards for the persons who have done most to propagate or defend the views which they represent and ought to be given to them independently of their fit ness. To this confusion of two distinct functions I must ascribe the deteriora- tion which has been remarked so ire quently in the legislatures of all demo- cratic countries in modern times. The number of men of experience or special knowledge as well as of conspicuous men which they contain seems to de- cline steadily, while the interests com- mitted to their charge as steadily seem to increase.
 This disregard of special fitness, com bined with the unwillingness to ac- knowledge that there can be anything special about any man, both of which are born of equality, constitutes the great defect of modern democracy.-E. L.. Godkin in Atlantic

Long Term Pastorates.

One of the advantages of long pas torate is that it compels the preacher to dig into the depths of gospel truth, to avoid sameness and repetition. This is exactly contrary to the popular impress sion. We have often heard men say that by change of pastorates they would gain time for study and more thor ough investigation of the great Chris tian themes. As matter of fact, the men who change pastorates every few years do not usually study as broadly and deeply as those who remain in one place for years. The former find that they can use their old preparations and that there are d good many claims upon them besides those of patient thought and investigation. The latter are forced to study. There is limit beyond which old sermons cannot be preached to the same congregation

A Strange Island.

Saghalien, on the eastern coast of Si- beria, presents a very curious anomaly of climate. The island is bathed by two cold ocean currents, and in winter noth- ing protects it against the icy northwest winds coming from Siberia. At the sea level the snow falls continually and stays on the ground till the end of May, and the seashore is very cold. Farther inland, however, especially as we go higher up, the climate is moditied-just tho opposite to what is observed else whera It has often been observed in Si- beria and ill central Europe that in win ter the cold is greater in the plains and the valleys, and that the highlands have a sensibly milder temperature. It Is as if the denser cold air accumulated in the lowlands. This fact is very often ob- served in our climate. There are several very good examples of it. All the trees and shrubs of a valley have been known to be killed by frost, while above cer- tain level, very clearly marked out, on the hill or the mountain, the vegetation has not suffered at all. The cold air often flows from the summits toward their bases. This is what takes place at Saghalien. The cold air accumulates in the low regions of the island and on the coast. The higher regions have a more elevated temperature. So 1t happens that the lower parts have an arctic veg citation, while the intermediate attitudes have the vegetation of a temperate zone, sometimes subtropical.
 The birch, the ash, the pine, the fir abound in the low regions and form often impenetrable forests, but toward the center of the island appear bamboos, hydrangeas, aralias and other plants that one is greatly surprised to meet and whose presence can be explained only by the altogether abnormal climatic conditions of the island.

YES"
do you provide bicycle for your

Yes, certainly. We have one for her

Elaine Goodale Eastman

They say the shyest woman in Amer
lea is Mrs. Elaine Goodale Eastman, the
poet. who long worked for the Indians in
the west, and then interested the gossips
very much by marrying one of them-a.
Harvard graduate, however. Her inti-
mate friends it is who declare her shy;
to the stranger it simply seems that she
is as distant and untalkative as the sta
tue of Liberty in the bay. She is statu-
esque in more ways than one, for her
features are classic in cut. She likes
Indians, Indians in general, and one of
her intimates declares it is because it
loosens her tongue and puts her at ease
to encounter a greater taciturnity than
her own. Her very beautiful 5-year-o!l
daughter, by the way, shows nothing OF
the inexpressiveness to which she is en-
titled by her fathers race and her moth
ers idiosyncrasy, but is a very bright
and constant chatterbox. = Leslie 5

The Beauty of the Cabinet

People who are we'll acquainted with
the daughter of Secretary Wilson tell
those whom it may concern that WASH

of the cabinet as yet. Miss Wilson is the
one, according to their opinions. She
has light hair and baby blue eyes, with
all the delightful accompa niments of
that style, and it is said she will be able
to give points to even the Washington
bellies. When she comes here in June SHE
will select the house in which the family
are to live, as the secretary says he
would not attempt to make a choice OF
his own for fear she will disapprove of
it, and he adds she just bosses me all

Ing" says an excellent salad maker, so
many keep the quantity of oil, vinegar,
pepper and salt in mind, but the manner
of using them seems of no consequence.
1t is of consequence if you do not want
the vinegar on the leaves and the oil
at the bottom of the salad bowl. In the
first place, it must be remembered that
a wet leaf will repel oil, therefore the
lettuce or other salad must be dried be-
fore it is sent to table. Now it is' quit e
evident that if a leaf wet with water
will refuse to retain oil one wet with
vinegar will do the same; for this rea-
son the leaves should be covered with oil
before the vinegar is added, or the salad
will be crude and very unlike what 1t
should be if properly mixed.-Pittsburg
