a very versatile speaker, and
his address, as Chairman Isador
Tiras expressed it in his intro
duction, came as a dessert for
the evenings exercises.
Mr.. Dannenbaum deplored
the conditions where persons are
actually suffering simply from
the fact that they are Jews. He
thinks that being a controlling
factor in the government of the
country, the Jew should exercise
more influence in bringing about
the rightful interests of his suf-
fering brethren. Mr.. Damien
baum had reference to the Jew
ish population of Russia and
other countries abroad where
the Hebrew is poverty stricken
and without many of the abso-
lutte necessities of life. In eff
feet, it was the idea of this ad-
dress that the Jew should be his
brothers keeper in the sense
that those we'll situated and in
duential in this country should
do something to relieve the suf-
ferings of their less fortunate
brethren who are held in bond
| age in Russia.

Jews barely escaped from being
idolators; not in the sense that
they worshiped images or wood
or stone, but that they almost
gave up their old religion for
the pursuance of things in a
ligher vein.
'This was so in their associa-
tion with the Greeks in the glad
atorial days, and it is the case at
the present time to more or
less extent with our people, es-
pecially the younger folks, in
their love for vaudeville which
has no meaning and no moral"
he stated.
DR.. Barnstein, while making
known that he was in nowise so
biased as to denounce the stage,
expressed himself very strongly
againt the modern vaudeville
theater, as relating to it's inf1u-
ence over the life of Jews, espe-
cially among the younger gen
Grafton. He thinks the Jew
should resent every attempt at
mockery from outsiders, and BY
so doing he will raise himself
not only in his own estimation
but in the eyes of the world, to
the position he should rightfully
occupy.
DR.. Barnstein was followed by
Rabbi w. Wilmer, who spoke on
the subject, "for Sweet Char
ity." DR.. Willner's discourse
was replete with the Jewish
idea of charity, and the many
Illustrations which gave color to
his talk all went to relieve the
central thought.
Rabbi Wilmer dealt with his
discourse in a broad manner,
dwelling long upon no particular
point but spreading his thoughts
evenly over the principal idea of
charity charity in it's Sweet
est" sense. He made frequent
reference to the incident of
Moses and the lamb, wherein the
love of the man went out even
to other creatures.
"It is this broad charity" he
said, (which we should practice
in our dealing, not only with and
among ourselves, but the whole
world" DIR. Wilmer has way
of putting his audience into
such a state of susceptibility
that every word falls upon ap-
preciatiVe ears.

Another Food Fad.

Tea is proclaimed an as intoxicar
by an inspired writer in York, (Pa.,
daily newspaper, who mixes some
facts with good deal of fiction in
explaining his theory. The story
sounds like an emanation from the
producers of coffee substitutes and is
worth reading as curiosity. The
York paper says: Those good per-
sons who are included in the list
of tea and toast philosophers and tea
drinkers generally, will be interested
in the statement of a medical auth
ority that the juice of the tea leaf
ranks second only to alcohol as an
intoxicant
DR.. Charles H. Scott, of the Chicago
board of health, has compiled some
statistics bearing on this subject, and
he finds that all of the patients who
apply for treatment at the chief dis
pensary of that city, fully ten per
cent are tea drunkards.
They are ignorant of the fact, but
the symptoms of their case point,
Enthusiastically, to over indulgence in
tea, and that presumption or inquiry
is confirmed by their confessions.
They suffer from headache, vertigo,
insomnia, palpitation of the heart,
mental confusion, nightmare, nausea.
hallucinations, morbid depressing of
spirits and sometimes from suicidal

The Eccentricity of Salt.

Perhaps the strangest freak that
Mother Nature ever played upon
miner was at Lodi, twenty miles south
of the city of indianapolis So long
ago as 1929 a man named Norbourn
Thomas hored there for salt, and
found at a depth of 250 feet brine
from which he could make thirty
bushels of salt day. Later he bored
to 500 feet, and was able to make
fifty bushels day. Some years
passed, and he took a brother into
partnership and deepened the well
still further They then got 200
bushels of salt daily, and the enter
pris;ng Thomas made large fort
une.
In the seventies came the oil boom,
and the Thomas salt we'll was rebor-
ed in the hope of finding petroleum.
A depth of 1,135 feet was reached
when suddenly the drill was blown
out by terrific rush of water, and
the company was forced to abandon
work. Five years ago it was discov-
cred quite by chance that the still
flowing we'll was producing water
charged with mineral salts of the
very greatest value, and today Lodi
is a rapidly growing and fourishing
health resort.-Answers.

ALL COLORS GOOD.

"In colors, brown, perhaps, is most

lovely green's, mauves, amethysts, vio-
let and purple. These will all be
seen in solid and combined tones.
Practically any desired combination
of color will be found in the new
striped wool goods. Let this be your
guide in purchasing such goods: To
be really a new weave the stripe
must be hazy, not to say irregular;
and 1t must run up and down and
not crosswise. A mere hint of dag

MESSENGER Boy Detectives.

That messenger boys make good
detectives was the assertion OF the
superintendent of one of the local
offices of the Western Union Tele-
graph Company recently, and when
asked to explain his remark he said:
mot long ago a woman came to
the Office and requested our aid in
locating her five-year-old boy, who,
she declared, had strayed from her
side in Broad street station. For
tunately the distracted mother had
with her photograph of the missing
boy, which we gave to one of our
bright lads with instructions to go
to the station and search for the wan
derer. He departed on his errand.
While we were waiting his return
the telephone bell rang and a VOICE
asked If we had sent messenger to
the station. We replied in the affirm
ative. Thereupon the receiver was
rung up. and shortly afterward the
mother had the satisfaction of clasp
ing to her heart her lost darling.
The embryo detective received a IS
bill for his work, and the woman left
vowing she would recommend our
boys to any one losing children. AT
terward we learned that a policeman
had heard our messenger trying to
persuade the child to go with him.
and thinking it a case of kidnapping
had prevented it until assured by
us that everything was all right

AMERICAS NEW WOMAN.

Whether it is the climate, or the
tradition OF Independence (Which
ruins in forty-eight hours after land
ing the best servants in the world),
or the mental training in our schools,
certainly the American woman does
not think in the same way as the
women Of other races. Mr.. James
questions her pronunciation; but she
continues to discuss every problem
Of creation with unfailing voiubility.
AS to her outward appearance, we
believe that she will approximate
more to the Slavic and the Italian in
fifty years than to Anglos-Saxon or
Celt But there is the solid founda-
tional support of Teutonic and Dutch
health, sanity, common sense, thrift.
More marvellous still is the racial
conquest of the Semitic. In no coun-
try have Hebrew physical peculiar
tiles been SO profoundly modified as
in America. A quarter of a century
ago Or a half century, the German
Hebrews were in the majority of emf
grants; today it is the Russian-Po-
lish. Haggard, prosecuted, of miser-
able physique, exploited even now on
the east side, nevertheless they strug-
gle toward the light They educate
their children They develop their
artistic gifts-who knows? they may
be the artistic leaven in the huge loaf
of prosperous American Philistinism.
The children of the men who reach
ed our shores poor and ambitious
few decades ago may be seen at the
Saturday theatre matinees, at piano
recitals, Wagner operas and picture
galleries. They are dressed like
Parisiennes, but their eyes and color
ing are of the east Their children
will not be puritanic. America will
profit, has profited by this exotic
strain; art has been benefited. In
This conglomerate We recognize Ital-
ian, Semitic, Celt, Slavic, little Eng
lish Or French, much Scandinavian.
Where is the American type? Ask a
century hence. The original Yankee
man and woman, the descendants of
those who fought in the Revolution,
will soon be as extinct as the dodo.

miliar American names. Some day

TWO YOUNG HEROES.

There comes to our table a most
interesting account Of two Band OF
Mercy boys who determined to feed
the half-starved horses and cattle or
a cruel man in their town. They
drew from the savings bank part o.
their little savings and at night, after
the man and family were asleep
loaded their sleds with grain and.
went to his barn and fed the half
starved animals. What they had
done aroused the humane sentiment
of the town and compelled the farm
er to thereafter properly feed and
care for his stock, and the boys re-
ceived several valuable presents from
new friends. Another interesting
account comes to us of how two Band
of Mercy boys in town thirteen
miles from Boston carried in the
night a bag of oats to the stable OF
a well-to-do man who was half staTV-
ing his horse, and on it wrote, "A
Present from Our Band of Mercy.
This became the talk of the town, and
resulted in a great Improvement of
the treatment of the horse.-Geo. +

an automobile to work cream sepa

John D. Rockefeller, J. P. Morgan

That they do some things very
much better in France would be the
verdict Of the American traveller, the
New York American thinks, on read
ing how a passenger over there sue
ceeded in getting even with rail-
road. This passenger, who may yet
be canonized by commuters, brought
suit against the French road because
his train was three hours late from
Paris to Madrid, and he was thereby
subjected to great annoyance" In
awarding the passenger damages the
court held that a railroad time table
constituted a contract between the
road and the passenger, and that the
road was liable for failure to main
tain its schedule.
