The present tendency on the part Of
Christians to take unto themselves
Jewish women as life partners, which
seems to be a cause Of contention In
orthodox Israelite circles, should be the
most applicable occurrence OF the con-

girls cannot be resisted even by the ir-
reducible benedick.
What is there in the female Israelite

BRAND, the celebrated French author,
whose Catholicism was SO intense as to
be baptized as fanaticism by the critics

1T was all owing to a special gift from
Jesus Christ as a token of His appre.

Him during His sojourn Al this earth-
ly abode. /,
The truth is that the spiritual beauty
of the Jewish danes is demolishing
more than any other factor here in
America h barrier of religious preju-
dices and ace bigotry. 1, for one,
must confess that the remarkable virs
