antism has enough to do to mind its own
business. He fatty refused to baptize
a young Hebrew into the Christian de-
nomination espoused by the superin-
tendent of the tent, and as consequence
there was row in the camp, the super
intendent maintaining that DR.. Peters
was not doing "Christ s work. the lat
ter, however, firmly believes that by re-
fusing to baptize Jews and proselyte in
general he is but following in Jesus
footsteps. At any rate, the result of DR..
Peters refusal was that he was COM
PEELED to illegally cancel his contract for
the tent and betake himself again to the
theatre.
DR.. Peters breaches to thousands,
made up of all creeds and classes, very
many Jews being in his audiences; but
he never tries to convert any from their
tenets to his own faith.
As is well known, DR.. Peters has been
the consistent, unswerving friend OF the
Jewish people. His voice has been al
WAYS raised on their behalf, and when
the horrors of Kishinetf shocked the
world he was one Of the first Christian
ministers to come forward and denounce
the prosecutions and appeal for help Tor
the victims In pulpit and on platform,
and with tongue and pen he has de-
Tended the race of Israel He has often
been invited to lecture IN the syna-
gogues-American HebreW.

The Schlemiel
BY Rev. A. Green.

Not the least interesting feature OF
Jewish anecdote is the place occupied
bv the Schlemiel. The Germans have
proverb, "Schlemiel bleibt Schlemlel,
and the Schlemiel is in truth so thor
oughly Schlemieldig" that we are un-
able to settle with any definition upon
the meaning and origin Of his name. The
popular explanation of the term Schle-
miel derives the name from Schlumlel,
the son of Zurishaddi, who is. mentioned
in the Book of Numbers as the prince
of the house of Simeon. He is Identified
bv the Midrash with Zimri Of the same
tribe. who was slain by Phineas, the son
of Eleazar, the priest, on the occasion
when the Israelites were tempted by
INDIAN. This in itself is hardly suffi-
cient, since Zimri was a criminal, pun
ished for distant otfense, and not
type of the well known Schlemiel OF the
Jewish anecdote. But it happens also
that during the festival Of Chanukah
there is read, as the proportion OF the
law for each day, the Bible account OF
the offering Of each of the princes IN
turn at the conservation of the taber-
nacle The offering Of Schlumiel, the
prince of Simeon, was made on the fifth
day, and the fifth is the only day OF
Chanul1ah which can never occur on

cried the angry parent to the teacher,
teaching my boy to say Kaddish for
me when I IN not dead yet?' "Don t
worry yourself my friend" said the
school master, eff you don t die till that
boy can say Kaddish you III live to be so
old that you III wish yourself dead"
There are not very many anecdotes
about the schoolboy Schlemiel, and for
a very good reason, since all those who
have ever tried to teach are aware that
if the pupil is Schlemiel he is not so
great a schlemiel as his teacher, and
takes second place accordingly. OF
course, it very often has happened that
man Of ability is saddled with a son
who is a Schlemiel. In this connection
good story is told Of a Raw Of great re-
nown who had a son a Schlemiel. The
Rav's house was naturally the resort
of many learned men, and the rabbi was
continually put to the blush by the
'malapropos" remarks Of his son, who,
too old now to be kept away from the
guests, and who was continually cover
ing his father with shame by the ignor-
ance and clumsiness Of his observations.
On one occasion some noted rabbiS were
on a visit to the town, and it was the
duty Of the Raw to entertain them. He
called his son and said to him very
kindly: ''LoOl here, my son, / am COM
PEELED to entertain these people, and you
have put me so often to the blush that
shall sink with shame if it occurs again
On the day they come you must go out
and spend the day elsewhere -
''Father,'' said the Schlemiel, "don' t
be hard upon me. These strangers are.
sure to notice if your son is absent, and
then it will be worse for me and for you.
If you let me stay I'll give you my sol
emn promise not to utter word.'' To
this the Raw agreed, and when the event
full day arrived he faithfully adhered to
his undertaking. While the guests were
assembling several Of the strangers ad-
dressed some courteous remarks to the
son of the house, but the Schlemiel was
a man Of honor and turned his back upon
them. AS fortune would have it, he was
placed at the table between two dis
tinguished rabbis, who, each in turn, at
tempted to engage him in conversation
In vain did they try; the Schlemiel ate
placidly on and would not commit him
self Pleased with his own strength of
mind and pertinacity, he began to beam
with delight, which puzzled the visitors
even more. At length one remarked to
the other in whisper: ''This young
fellow seems to be a bit Of Schlemiel.'' -
Father cried the Schlemiel, from the
bottom of the table, cit s not my fault;

fortunate position Of never having his
offering announced on the Sabbath day
This disability-which it must be con-
fessed, does not strike me as being par
ticularly great-has been sufficient to
warrant the assumption OF phllologlsts
that his being crowded out of the honor
Of being named on the Sabbath makes
him the prototype of the man who
missed his opportunities.
1t has been suggested that the word
Schlemiel is the corruption OF the Ju-
d9o- German expression "schlimm-maz-
eel" which means bad luck. But this
is hardly likely to be the case, since the
word schlimm- -lhazZel has retained It's
form uncorrupted as the Jewish term
for misfortune, and conveys a sugges-
tion of calamity far more serious than
the mishaps which continually beset the
Schlemiel and tighten his fortunes with
a touch Of real humor 1t will be at
once recognized, by anyone familiar with
Jewish terms that while we can laugh
heartily at the Schlemiel we cannot even
smile at the genuine schllmm- -maZZel.
Again, it has been suggested that, IT.
respective of any historical bearer OF the
name, the Schlemiel is really a Schlu-
miel, the name meaning "God is my
peace" The Schlemiel is so unfortun
ate, so unsuccessful and so incapable OF
earning any peace of mind derived from
security in life's undertakings, that he
has no other philosophy wherewith to
reconcile himself to his continual ups
and downs than his religious trust in
the Providence to which alone he looks
for ultimate rest. AS the Schlemiel is
never vicious and always harmless, it
may possibly be that the name was orig
inally applied to those who had no
worldly security except the resigned
feeling which bade an unfortunate man
say 81 have no luck among men; my
peace is from God.
The Schlemiel in Jewish anecdote
commences life very early. He is Schle-
miel almost from cradle to grave. We
find the traces of him at school, when he
is made the scapegoat for the offences
of others, and is voted by his parents
and teachers a bulldog There is a
story Of the young Schlemiel who was so
dull that his rabbi could do nothing
with him, could hardly even teach him
to read. The worthy pedagogue did his
very best to drum something into his
head, but finding all efforts of no avail,
at last began to teach him the Kaddish.
The study Of the Kaddish proceeded
laboriously for some time, until at last
the father called at the school to see how

ried on account of being in debt, for
they won't pay when they have the
money, if there is any possible way
to get around it. People who are SEN
sitive about such things, and are wor-
ried because they can't pay, would
find comfort in the future If they
would learn well the very important
lesson that one of the worst things
they can do is to spend their money
before it is earned that is, to go in
debt; buy on credit Promises to pay
are oftimes full of trouble. The sane
and safe way would be to spend less
than you make; at least to learn to
live within your income. 1t would be
better to deprive yourself of some
thing than to go in debt for it, espe-
cially if the prospect of meeting the
obligation at the time expected is not
very promising"

We heartily endorse the following
which we clip from the Georgetown
Times:
Now that settling up time has
again rolled round, some people who

barrassed to meet their obligations.
