roof. The sanitary conditions indescribable.
Weavers in Kolomea attend to two three looms
tor twelve or thirteen hours day for weekly wage
of fifty to seventyfve cents Not content with this,
their employers demanding that they shall
attend to six loo MS for the sum. Workmen in
the petroleum refinery earn 81 so per week for the

hands girls of from twelve to fourteen years of
age. They work from $50 A. M. to 8 p. NJ, with
one hours pause at midday, aud ten cents

at the rate of one penny per thousand. The acto-

of absolute opposites Were Judaism aught but spirit
ual, it had not survived the and tear of CEN
turies and the constant attribution of friends and
enemies. 1t is not ways easy to distinguish be-
tween the last two, for its worst enemies are often
wolves in sleeps SKINS though sometimes uncon-
sciously We have right to question the sincerity
of the reconcers but it proper that the skin be
stripped off and the wolf be brought to view It is
true that Christianity is the daughter of religion
and that we SHOULD be the best possible terms
with Christians But though mark the points of
contact the points of difference are too striking to
be ignored That Judaism is elastic is it's happiest
feature, giving proper room for anathema
communication-but there is limit beyond which
too much stretching must break it. We believe that
it IS due to the preaching OF the doctrine of human
BROTHERHOOD, to the exclusion of the Individual and
special means by which this ideal is to be attained,
which misleads of our young If they read
the prophets more closely, they would find that they
stood upon Jewish platform which none could mis-
take for any other. The Jew who does not know
that he is Jew, and why he is Jew, is pretty
poor kind of Jew after all. We have within
synagogues and temples for all kinds of Jews,
making little space for the Conservative, but
the profession of Judaism must be of that unmstak-
able kind which know and misunderstood.

Few. but Slick.

Rural life in certain sections of Indi-
ana is simply incomprehensible to those
who have not seen it. and many phases
of it are incomprehensible to outsiders
who have.
A farmer drove up to the village
general store" alighted from his buck
board. hitched his horse and accosted
the proprietor by calling out:
w hut's strawb-ries to-day, SAM"
We're payin' cents for good ones,
fresh picked
Couldn't make it 6, could YEP"
Nope. The rains have brought 'em
forward nightly, and the prices he'd
to tumble"
The farmer sat down on a salt bar
rel in the shade in front of the store
and waited, At the end of half an
hour he came to the door and said:
'Mandy'll be put out about it. She
reclxoned they'd be about now
Sorry, jim" replied the storekeep-
er, but I'm sellin' 'em for ~
The farmer sauntered down to the
blacksmith shop and pitched quoits for
an hour. Then he came back
Split the difference" he said, ''and
call it five and a half"
All right, was the reluctant re-
joinder. Let it go at that. How many
have you got?"
Bout four quarts and a half" he
said, and they're jest as slick berries
as ye ever set yer teeth into. Chicago
