The Crafty Brother.

A man had two sons. The elder was vfrtuous and dutiful, the younger wick cd and crafty. When the father was about to die he called them before hin and said: Il have only two things oi yalue-my herd of camels and my blessing How shall allot them?''
 Give to me" said the younger sol thy blessing, for 1t may reform me The eamels 1 should be sure to sell and squander the money"
 The elder, disguising hls joy. said that he would try to be content with the eamels and a plous mind, It was 60 arranged. and the man died. Then the wicked younger son went before tue cadi and said: Behold, my brother has defrauded me of my lawful her itage He is so bad that our father. as Is well known, denied him h!s blessing Is 1t likely that he gave hlm the cam els?'
 So the elder brother was compelled to give np the herd and was soundly baStlnadoed for his rapacity.

BOOMING HIS TOWN.

How Young Board Of Trade P.esidei
 Made Gcod' NI.h the People.
 Systematic town boosting is a fca ture of American business activity which aims at the general good insto ] of persona! profit. One western tow! had q board of trade which had slel,' along for years without doing an.tlain. in particular, except eating some food once year at q banquet and listentii'e to some spread eagle oratory, says tls Plttsburg Dispatch. The organ'zatio'. became noribund. and its presidenc' was an honor no longer sought Tor The directors met and gave the place to young man of the type i've like t encourage" The young man took hss job seriously and went to work. II wasn't long before he grew an idea of his own.
 Every family that moved to town l,e spotted. Employment was provided for the breadwinners where necessary and the new people were made to fee, at home. When this personal atten- ton had got in It's work, a representa-. tive of the board of trade Interviewed the head of the new family. This in. tervIew was incorporated into letter. mimeograph copies were made, put into stamped envelopes and made ready to mail Then the letters were taken to the newcomer, and he was asked to address them to hls friends "back east" The scheme worked like magic and the population boomed. Of tha; idea many new ones were born. The young man has been several times re elected president of the board of trade and he can have anything the people of that town can give him.

SIS the widow going out of favor

the registrar of a populous district
of London.
"Oh, decidedly" he replied. "You
know that fewer people Of every
kind marry now than formerly. Thir-
ty years ago, out Of every hundred
marriageable people about six would
marry in any year: now the number is
less than five. But the widow s
chances have declined far more than
the spinster's.

clearly in figures. Thirty years ago
the widow was exertmely popular
among men about to wed. She was

JEWISH LONGEVITY.
The Reasons for it, Hygienic and Re.
igious. =. >.

Diettic and Hygienic Gazette.
Superficial scrutiny Of the vital
statistics yields the Jew a prominent
position in the sanitary world, if
longevity serves as any index Of hy-
gienic living. With the average
length Of life for all Christian peo-
pie placed at SO years, IL months,
(l9OO,) the Jew may hope to reach 48
years. 8 months.
Neufville, (1855,) inquiring into
comparative duration Of life and
causes Of death of Jews and Chris
tians in Frankfort, learned and one
fourth of the Jewish population was
living beyond II years. while only
one-fourth Of their neigh. '0rs was liv-
ing beyond the age Of SO years, IL
months. Abott claims that they
"hey, i. e., Jews) are much less fire.
quently the subjects Of tubercular
and acute epidemic diseases than any
other race of mankind.'
Why should this seeming vital SUI
periority exist? According to Rich
ardson, "the causes are simply sum-
med up in the term 'soberness of
life The Jew drinks less than his
to,-on Chrietiar.' he takes as rule
better food: he marries earlier; he
rears the children he has brought in"
to the world with greater personal
care. he tends the aged more thought
fully; he takes better care of his
poor and he takes better care of him
self.'' To this might have been ad-
ded that through religious customs
