feast Of Tabernacles, which also lasts
eight days, during the Second Temple
lighting of lamps and torches was
prominent feature of the celebration
(Mishna Sukka, 81.
According to the Shammaites on
'Hannukkah eight lamps were kindled
on the first night, and their number re-
duced on each successive night. Ac-
cording to the Hillelites one lamp was
lit the first night, increasing the number
till the eighth night (Shab. 21). jose

According to modern critics, 'Hannuk-
kah had been celebrated as the winter

with the great victory Of the Maccabees.
On the other hand the twenty-fifth day
of Kisley was also sacred to the heath
ems before it became Jewish festival.
In the prayer "Al Ha Nissim,
Mattathia is designated as the ''high
priest" which is a mistake.
The main Importance Of 'Hannukkah,
according to Rabbinical law, is the kind

ject in view, however, is not the illu-
minatiOn of the house within, but of the
house without SO that the people pass
ing by could see it, and the great mira
Gle should become manifest. Therefore,
lamps should be set up near the door
leading to the street, and when house
had doors on several sides, lamps were
placed in front of each door. For every
person in the house lamp was lit, as
the object of the light was merely to
make known the great miracle Max

Of reading or work was prohibited
(Sabbath, 2D. This was doubtless the
reason why games, riddles and other
pastimes were INDUCED in on 'Hannuk-
kah evenings. The best known and
most popular game, especially in Ger

fled Dictator Of Argentine.
One of the strangsst of natural
wonders of South America, is the
swinging rock of Tandil Ola piedra
hovediza). says the Philadelphia Rec
ord. The stone lies about half an
hours walk fran the city of Tandil.
province Of Buenos Ayres. Argentine
Republic, upon the highest summit OF
little rocky ridge. When seen from
the ravine 1t has the form of a giant
pyramid. while from another view II
resembles o. enormous cone. 1t Is
twenty-one feet long and twenty-eight
feet high. and its weight is judged to
be about 1880 hundredweight, or
about 627 tons. From the distance the
stone presents n peculiar aspect 1t is
SO highly roised on the rocky slope
that II seems as If we were watching
stone roll down the hill and resting
for second upon very small base.
But when we approach this swinging
rock we are astonished by new
wonder. We can set the stone in mo-
ton by merely pushing it with the
hand. Very often the traveller Is
spared even the trouble OF pushing
the stone, as the wind will cause it
TO swing.
Early In the nineteenth century the
Argentine Republic was ruled by the
dictator Rosa with unparalleled cruel
ty for about twenty-five years. To |
show his supreme power the tyrant |
ordered that the stone be encircled |
with ropes and many horses to be |
1arnessed to these ropes-but the
'tone could not be moved one inch
rom its resting place.
