PUT RELIGIOUS DUTY SECOND.
Stern Laws Of Business Como First
Says Austrian Court.

An interesting case at law, which
centered on the observance of an old
Jewish custom, was decided in Vienna,
recently. A merchant, says the Ameri-
can Israelite. discharged clerk on ac-
count of neglect OF duty. Among the
charges against him was that he came
to the store late in the morning be-
cause he attended service at the syna-
gogue In order to say Kaddish-the
prayer for the dead-for his father.
The clerk argued that 1t was his privi-
lege and his duty to say the prayer for
his departed father, while the mer-
chant, who was also religious man,
maintained that ''if Moses had known
that man had to pay 5000 gulden n
year rent he would have made differ
ent laws" The judge would not allow
such an argument. but decided in ia.
vor of the merchant, because the
daily attendance at the synagogue
could not be considered the right OF
the clerk without the consent of the
employer"

Religious influences in Palestine
are vitality alive and active. Tomor-
row will demonstrate this fact to any
stranger who may be fortunate enough
to attend any of the local churches.
The weather permitting large congre.
cations will be at all of the churches,
and a degree of originality and per.
sonality will characterize the ser.
vices. At the Christian church to.
morrow evening, the pastor, Rev. L. d.
Anderson. will preach a sermon based
on answers to the question, What do
you regard as an ideal career for wo.
MANI" The answers to this question
have been sent in TO the pastor by
many people during the week. This
is an original way to get up a sermon,
but it is necessarily bound to interest
a great many people to hear their own
answers used to SO important a ques.
ton. And at the Y. NJ. C. A. mems
afternoon service a very interesting
topic will be discussed by the young
men, namely, How can best help
other young men to live correct
lives?" Surely this is a subject worth
discussing and worth hearing discuss.

A wood hauler has handed an ad-
vertisement to the Herald today, eau
tioning the people of the city against
the methods being employed by some
wood haulers in short-weighting their
customers on every cord of wood put
in, and the writer of the ad says no
one should pay for cord of wood I'M
til it has been corded and measured.
This man says the custom has been
practiced to such an extent that he
has become disguised, and that while
he has been furnishing full cords he
does not like the idea of other people
putting in short cords. 1t might be
worth while to take this piece of ad-
vice. OF course, every man who hauls
wood is not a cheat, any more than
every man who sells any other pro-
duct, but if there is a smooth artist
unloading short cords on his custom
ers he should be checked up. Wood
is high enough when a man gets what
he pays for.
