monia. However. it stopped as quick
as it came and this was the only rea-
son the weather man was saved from
tarring and feathering.

Light On the Subject.

A fire occurred on premises rented
by Jews in London. The circumstan-
ces were somewhat suspicious and an
agent of the insurance company with
which the property was insured was
sent to investigate, also the junior
partner, as to the probable cause Of
the fire. This was his report: 4 find
that the senior partner thinks it was
caused by an arc light on the second
floor; the junior partner thinks it was
caused by an incandescent light on the
first fioor-but my opinion is that 1t
was caused by an Israelite in the base
ment!"

peculiarly hard. 1t has been the cause

snow on the prairie anywhere will
hold man and in some places team
and sleigh can pass over two or three
feet of snow as easily as on a smooth
street.
