InentS

Chicago, Ill., March l6- One OF the
most noteworthy things in railway ac-
tiyity which has been announced this
year Is the elaborate program for
beitermenis laid our by the manage
ment OF the Rock Island lines Mil
lions Of dollars have been expended
N the last few years for track improve
nient, block signals and new equip
ment The work Of ballasting and
track widening will be carried on this
year on large scale and about 81 $780,
700 will be expended for this purpose
II is expected that approximately 500
miles will be entirely rebalasted in
tile most approved method which will
place the Rock Island in a most envi-
able position among the railways ia
tho United States
Special attention VIII first be given
L the line between Chicago and Den
yer and Colorado Springs. where some
200 miles win be reballasted or re-
surfaced as conditions warrant, and
the entire line win be made as nearly
perfect as money and skill can make
The new work includes the resur-
facing and strengthening on The Illi-
nois division to meet the requirements
o' constantly increasing traffic ana
will proceed as fast as the l00-pound
steel rails are laid
The remainder Of the work will be
done in Kansas, Oklahoma and Arkan-
sas. where the management is anxious
te still further improve it's facilities,
being given to those To-
calities where the demands Of traffic
are most pressing.
TO insure the best results every
where, several kinds Of material viii
be used in ballasting Rock will be
given the preference and used to a
very large extent but disintegrated <
burnt clay and gravel win be
ased where conditions show that the
best possible roadbed win be obtain
ed by their use.
In addition TO these operations some (,
100000 are being expended up on the
ST Lous-Kansas city line of the Rock I
Island, and the work Of making this .
one Or the best pieces of road in the
west is rapidly nearing completion

forth no effort, still grumble that they
are considered of no Importance to
those about them. To both of these
classes few words of advice will not
be amiss.
Change your mode of living. Infuse
little more unselfishness into your
daily transactions. Take an enthusi-
astic interest in the communal and re-
ligious life about you: Encourage,
(even if it puts you out of pocket a
few dollars per monthly any worthy en-
terprise that is brought to your notice
Join some of our organizations and be-
come identified with their best efforts
This may mean a little self-sacrifice,
but the feeling of doing your best is
ample compensation. Your example
will be contagious. Nothing commune
Gates itself so readily as vim, hustle,
energy. Join the hustlers, the boost
ers, swell the army that is doing
things, not entirely for themselves,
but for others. The Talmud strictly
enjoins us against sharing too little in
public affairs. (Aboth H. 81 You can
attain your greatest happiness only
in proportion as you forget 'self" and
become a "giver" and litter" An
alyse these two words and let each
one endeavor to realize what is truly
meant by becoming a "giver" and a
litter" They will give you the key
to all power, to all beneficial influence
and the blessings to be derived there
from.

A prince said to Rabbi Gamaliel:
Your God is a thief; he surprised
Adam in his sleep, and stole a rib
from him." The Rabbits daughter,
overhearing this speech, whispered a
few words in her fathers ear, begging
his permission to answer this singular
statement herself. He consented. The
girl stepping forward and feigning
great terror, threw her arms aloft in
supplication, and cried in dismay: my
liege, my liege, Justice! revenge!"
What has happened?" asked the
prince "a wicked theft has been COM
mitted. A robber crept in on us, car
ried away silver goblet, and left
golden one instead What an up
right thief" exclaimed the prince,
much amused. would that such rob-
berries occurred more frequently!" 'Be-
hold, then, Sir, the kind of thief our
Creator was; he stole rib from Adam
and gave him beautiful wife in
stead" well said, indeed" avowed
the prince.-Talmud Sanhedrin.
The Jewish herald. (Houston, Tex.) 1908-1914, 1910-05-12

A great truth, which is generally
overlooked is the injustice done the
real religion of Judaism. The super
fetal student is prone to judge it by
the Mosaic law, which, great in itself
as it is, but foreshadows the spirit of
true Judaism. The true Jewish reli-
gion is the result of the growth, eX-
pansion and proper incorporation of
the forces inherent in the Mosaic code.
Its thousands of years of existence GER
tify it's right to live. The race, from
which it sprang, has made so profound
an impression for good on humanity,
that, all caviling to the contrary, our
faith easily takes most honorable place
among the religions of the world.
