LIFE STORY OF A
LUMP OF COAL
What have we here?

What have we here?
Why, this is a lump of coal-and
some of its ancestors.
Funny looking ancestors.
Yes, they are-funny as some Of
ours.
They look like ferns and MOSES,
those forefathers of coal.
Right you are. Back in the car
boniferous era-the era in which
the earth was busy canning its car
bon-those ferns were doing bust
ness under the names of sigillariae,
and they were big as a house and
the MOSES were like the lycopodi-
UNI OF our day, only they were 60
feet high and had trunks like the
old village elms your read about.
And round underneath them was
a growth Of little ferns and little
MOSES and what not, and all about
was a moist, hot atmosphere that
made them grow in a hurry. And
as they died they piled up a mass
of rotting vegetation that soon got
thick and waxy and no telling how
deep. Maybe this lasted hundreds
OF years, maybe only decade; but
that is why some coal seams are
only the thickness of a knife blade
and others are 80 feet thick.
Is it possible?
sure. And the first thing you
know the rising waters covered this
once glad field of vegetation, and
then for ages silt and sand settled
down upon 1t and compressed it and
hardened 1t; the silt and sand in
the meantime getting hard and COM
pressed from the weight of more
silt and sand.
And perhaps the waters subsidized
and gave vegetation another chance
and another coal bed was made
which in time became overlooked
again, to lie dormant while layers
of shale and rock and earth formed
above 1t through the centuries.
And prehistoric man?
Oh, he wasn't in on this. There
were mostly encrenities, creatures
that looked like star fish. only the
stars were at the end of a stem
which had roots like rose bush.
They lived at the bottom of the sea.
The remains of these encrenites
form limestone, There were also
some clans and snails and fish. but
the nearest to human being was
a cross between a fish and a rem.
tile. and they called 1t an archego.
saurus, an insult which 1t was new.
er able to resent, poor thing. Some
specimens of 1t have been found
petrified in the shale everything the
ferns and things otherwise known
as coal.
And Is this all the story?
Oh, no. Think of the ancient

dova is included among the list of physi-
clans by the author, who says that he
created what is almost a new Talmud,
and alleges that Richard Coeur de Lion
wished to make him his court physician,
in spite of the edicts of the Popes
Eugenius, Nicholas and CalaXtus that
Christians should not employ Jewish
physicians. In Spain for many years
they were practically the only practi-
TONERS of medicine. Somewhat later the
notorious Pope Alexander XII had as
personal physician a Jew, Bonet de
Lates, who subsequently became attached
to the court of Leo x. The edict against
Jewish physicians was finally raised by
Sixtus V, largely at the instigation of
two then celebrated physicians, David de
Pomis and Ella Montalto. In the latter
part Of the eighteenth century Mendel-
ssohn s efforts in behalf of his compat-
riots were ably seconded by his friend
the physician, Marcus Herr, who con-
tributed much toward the elevation of
the Jews of Germany. In still more re-
cent times Ascher, Steinheim, Erter and
Johann Jacoby have been prominent,

mann, Neumann, Baginsky and Senator.

The Jewish Physician in History
The Healing Art As Practiced by the Levites
in the Early Years of the World.

IL Is pTODdDlC IIldJ ITO OlIlcf race Has
been influenced in it's development and
general progress by members of the med
ical profession to so. great an extent as
has been the case with the Jews. In the
earliest times the practice of the healing
ing art was stamped with prestige and
authority since it lay largely in the
hands of the Levites, and therefore ac
quired some of the distinction belonging
to the priestly order. The functions OF
the members of this tribe, especially in
assisting at the sacrificial ceremonial, no
doubt rendered it especially easy for
them to obtain an insight into the work
ings and function of the organs Of the
animal body, thereby becoming possessed
of knowledge that could readily be APP
piled to the treatment of disease in man:
How intimately at that time the care OF
the body was associated with the rules
of religious observance is evident from
the many regulations regarding public
and personal hygiene laid down in the
Mosaic laws, sanitary doctrines that in
principle are most of them as sound to-
day as then. Somewhat later on in the
evolution of the race it appears that the
practice of medicine became largely an

time received no remuneration for their
services in legal matters, and so took up
the other learned profession as means Of
livelihood. During the later periods OF
disaster and captivity and the centuries
of dispersal and persecution, the Jewish
physicians assumed a conspicuous posi-
ton in striving for the rights of their
race, in assisting their less fortunate fel-
lows, and in influencing rulers to miti-
gate the hardships to which the Jews
were universally subjected. Many of
them became the court physicians and
favorites of powerful monarchs, some
even enjoyed the confidence of popes and
prominent ecclesiastical flnctiOnaries,
others advanced the cause of their people
by writings of literary or controversial
nature. An interesting survey of these
members of our profession is to be OBJ
tanned from a little work entitled

DIAMONDS IN THE ROUGH.

A diamond in the rough
Is diamond, sure enough!
And although it may not sparkle,
1t is made of diamond stuff.
OF course someone must find it,
Or it never would be found:
And of course someone must grind it
Or it never would be ground.
But when it's found, and when
ground,
And when it FURNISHED bright,
That diamond everlastingly
Just flashing out it's light!
o, teacher in the Sabbath school!
Don't think you borne enough;
That "worst boy in the class may be
A diamond in the rough.
Perhaps you think he's grinding you
And doubtless you are right;
But maybe you need grinding,
Just to burnish you up bright!
