found that the common saying of ''Do
as say, not as l do, is usually reversed
in the actual experiences Of life.
All persons are more or less apt to
learn through the eye, rather than the
ear; and, whatever is seen, in fact
makes far deeper impression than any
thing that is read or heard. This is es-
pecially the case in early youth, when
the eye is the chief inlet of knowledge.
Whatever children see they unconscious
ly initiate, and they insensibly become
like those who are about them. Hence
we see the vast Importance of domestic
training. For whatever may be the eff
cheney Of our schools the example set in
homes must always be of vastly greater
influence in forming the characters OF
our future men and women. The home
is the crystal of society-the very nu-
cleus of national character; and from
that source be it pure or tainted. issue
the habits, principles and maxims which
govern public as well as private life. The
nation comes from the nursery: public
opinion itself is, for the most part, the
outgrowth of the home, and some of the
best teaching comes from the freside.

The Colored Jews of India

In ''The Jews Of India and the Far
East the Rev. j. ii. Lord writes fasci-
natingly on fascinating subject. Ac-
cording to the census there are 1925
Jews in India Gncluding Burma) and,
of this number the great bulk would APP
pear to be along the western coast. In
the Bombay Presidency and its native
states, there are 1879, and in Malabar,
Cochin and Travancore, 1888. Calcutta
accounts for 1899 and there are scat
tered about small number throughout
the various provinces But western In
dina contains the largest proportion and
the largest number. The Jewish colony
in India is threefold in division: The
Beni-Israel in Bombay and western In
dia, the white and the black Jews of
Cochin, and the European Jewish ele-
ment in the larger towns. Mr.. Lord S
book deals mainly with two great prob
lens in connection with the Asiatic jew,
namely, his origin and his color Mr..
Lord gives all the various principal the
ories on each Of the points, together
with his own views, which are ingenious
and most interesting. In addition, the
book teens with information on other
points, and, in fact, constitutes on the
whole a most valuable addition to our
too scahty literature on the Jewish ele-
ment in the Indian population.

M0dernize the
Synagogue

Mr. Louis Marshall addressed meet
ing recently at the Educational Alll-
ance in New York on the subject OF the
Synagogue. He gave expression to the
following important suggestions:
1.-The synagogue has from time i'm
memorial been the center of Jewish
life and activity. The elder generation,
trained in European communities, fully
recognized this fact and required no in
structiOn with regard to the Importance
of the synagogue. In this country, how
ever, there is a tendency among the
growing generation, to absent themselves
from the synagogue and to become
weaned from religious life, because the
orthodox synagogue, as generally con-
Quoted, not only did not appeal to them,
but actually repelled them. They have
been accustomed to the orderly and de-
cOrous methods of conducting assemblies
which prevail in America; their Obser-
vation in schools and at public meetings,
has indicated to them the Importance
of these qualities, and, consequently,
when they attend the services at an
orthodox synagogue which afford a
striking contrast so far as order and de-
corum are concerned to what they see
about them in other assemblies at which
their fellow citizens congregate, they
they are impressed with the improprie-
ties which they behold in the synagogue,
and a sense of shame impels them to
abstain from further attendance.
In addition to this, the younger gen
Grafton is not as familiar with Hebrew
rs their parents are, because they have
no opportunity or desire to study their
ancient language, and, therefore, under
stand but little of the service and are
unable to participate therein. Then,
too, many Of them feel that when they
attend the synagogue they should be
given an opportunity of learning
through a discourse, the principles Of
their religion and of having inculcated
in them the doctrines for which Judaism
stands. But finding nothing in the SER
vice as now conducted in the orthodox
congregations which appeal to them, they
become unchurched, and become either
entirely Indifferent to the Jewish relig-
ion or become agnOstics and atheists,
and adherents to the latest fad in So
called religion, economics or ethics.
What is true to-day in community
in which a large majority have been
born abroad, will be true with tenfold
force in years to come, when the ma jor-
ity of the Jews in this community
will be of American birth, to
whom the methods which now obtain in
the orthodox synagogue will appear to

perly If others than those to sail were
allowed to swarm over the vessel.
In such crowd substitution might
easily be done. A sick person might
remain in his bunk while friend or
visitor impersonated him; or one man
might report twice for inspection The
sailing of the vessel would be needless
ly delayed, and business interfered with
all around.
There never was the slightest appre-
hension that the friends and relatives
of those departing were likely to infect
the vessels; nor any possibility of in
lection being tracked on board by the
dirty feet of stevedores and coal pass

correct number and make the proper
inspection of those who were to sail.

Cholera has not invaded this port

of the U. S. Quarantine regulations

Immediately isolated.
A port like Honolulu is peculiarly
adapted for the development anC
spread of cholera. The harbor is small
and landlocked. There is the great ex
panse of reef, on which are found thu

shell-fish and seaweed which are eaten
raw by numbers of natives who roam
there Let a ship enter the harbor
with one case of cholera aboard. Let
the discharges that single case find
their way into the water of the harbor,
and the mischief is probably done. The
shell-fsh and seaweed become infected
Natives eat these and develop cholera.
Some are taken sick in their shacks on
shore. Some may be taken sick on
the reef and contribute more infection
to the animal and vegetable life there.
On shore the discharges are accessible
to flies and other insects and soon the
epidemic is general
For the protection of this port the
measures to be taken therefore, to
prevent the introduction of cholera
from a vessel infected or suspicious,
must necessarily be rigid and severe.
In such a contingency there could be
no temporizing, no adopting of precau-
tions to the interests of business or of
persons. The risk would be too great
and the penalty for carelessness too

case of the disease brought here would
be enough The process is as follows:
Let a case develop while in port, or

few Stegmyna. 1t is only during these

first three or four days that a case
seems capable of injecting a mosquito.
The poison develops in the infected
insects for about twelve days, when
they acquire the power of transmitting
the disease by their bite to human be-
ings. In the meantime the original
patient has either died or practically
recovered. The infected insects now
bite a number of other persons. Some
where within FIVE days all those bitten
develop yellow fever. These in their
turn are bitten-in unscreened rooms
by thousands of new mosquitoes all
of which become infectious in twelve
days. BY that time the disease is
firmly established probably never

island steamers, or by human cases

veloping in the other islands. Thou

This is a gloomy picture but is not

case of yellow fever pass through the
! lines of quarantine.

The reason for holding the vesse

first, so that any mosquitoes on boarC

before fumigation would be unable to
fly to the shore; and second, so that
after fumigaton any possible cases
bitten by infected mosquitoes before
fumigation could not be bitten by and
infect island insects.
We believe it unlikely that this dis
ease will ever get in here through the
strict quarantine that is being enforc-
ed. But an unforeseen accident may
be the means Suppose a vessel with
infected mosquitoes aboard were to be
wrecked on one of the reefs on a dark
night, when the wind blew shoreward
No human power could then avert the
catastrophe. Take the case of the

There was nothing to prevent her

be different. A mosquito once infect
ed probably remains infected for the
rest of it's life. Yellow fever consid-
cred by Guiteras to be a chronic dis
ease of mosquitoes and an acute dis
ease of humanity.
