A RABBITS ADVICE.
It was two days before Passover when poor
man went to the Rabbi to tell him about his trouble
and asking his advice.
Il have got six children, and have not enough
money to buy matzosfor the Seder what shall do"
The Rabbi replied: "Geht nur helm Ihr werdt
schon matzos haben." (Go home! You will have
matzos right enough
1t was Erev Pesach and the man did not have
matzos yet. Desperately he ran to the Rabbi again.
who gave him the same answer yesterday.
1t was afternoon and there was no trace of matzos

and buy matzos.
short time afterwards he meets the Rabbi who
inquired if he had had matzos for the Seder.

my only two pillows"
"WeIl,'' said the Rabbi, didn't 1 tell you you

SOURCE UNKNOWN.
An ignorant fellow who had the Seder
observed in his native village in Poland, eagerly &C
cepted an invitation from relative of his wife that
she might spend the first night of Passover away
from home He instructed her to watch carefully
what was done, and return speedily as he would
himself repeat it on the second evening
Unfortunately the lady arrived in the midst of
domestic quarrel (for the wife being beaten for
having spoit the supper). Naturally her stay was
very short one. On arriving home, she obstinately
refused describe what she had SEEN and when her
irate husband proceeded to admonish her with a
broomstick for her silence she exclaimed Decever
And you said you had never seen Seder!"

some difficult feat, have been morti-

that whenever Wall Street is in dan
ger OF getting pinched, 1t is the
Treasurer that rushes to the rescue.
He knows that three times within as
many months, Mr.. Secretary Gage
has gone to the relief of Wall Street,
either by anticipating the payment
OF interest on our bonds, or by taking
up the bonds themselves and paying
big premium for the pleasure of
thus pulling the Wall Street ass out
of the pit, the people,-bear it in

for interest and for premiums. And
he will do the same thing again be-

among local Democrats, particularly
in view of the fact that he has been q
close political associate of ex-Gov.
John P. Altgeld. The speaker began
by quoting these declarations Of the
club:
We oppose all trusts and monopolies, in
order that wealth may not gain undue ad-
vantage and that competition shall be free
and unrestrained among the people.
We oppose the single gold standard and
favor the restoration of bimetaliism, regard
less of the action or desires of any other
nation.
Judge Mcconnell said in part:
These two declarations. in my Judgment,
are expressive OF the great mission Of the
Democratic party. am inclined, however,
to believe that the first includes the second
and that the war against monopolies and
trusts means war against the single gold
standard, II the contest is to be waged in
telligently and effectively. am certain, too.
that the first declaration requires and means
hostility to protective tariff laws. In fact,
under the encouragement and aid Of those
laws, the first trusts and combinations en-
croashins upon tree competition cams into
