As the guest Of honor the colonel
was sent upward with the assurance
that there was absolutely no danger.
But as the distance from the earth
grew greater the colonel leaned out
snxiously.
Pull me I'M" he shouted.
The men who were bailing out the
rope paid no heed to his demand.
Higher and higher went the balloon.
Wilder and wilder grew the colonel.

There the mollusks are kept until

1t is since 1903 that such parental
government solicitude has been ex-
tended to this inmate OF Hollands

suffered evil effects from indulgence
In the ICELAND oyster and for q time
the trade in oysters and mussels was
paralyzed. In parliament and in the
provincial states" as well as in
iceland municipalities, the matter was
taken up and the result was that .
government inquiry was instituted.
This disclosed the fact that the waters
near Hertogenb0sch were contaminat.

by the drainage water from two sugar
factories. The water in the harbor
was simply alive with deleterious bac-
terra and the oyster pits near by got
their water from this very harbor.
All the cases of serious oyster infec-

the fact that the victims had eaten

pits. The government Immediately
had them closed and they have never

A DIsINTEREsTED APPEAL.

The Yom Kippur address delivered
by Mr.. Schoenman at Temple Beth
Israel should be in every Jewish house
vocated should be deeply pondered
on and, at the earliest opportunity,
put into execution.
Too true is the accusation that. in
proportion to our wealth, strength and
position, we are not, as community,
doing sufficient for the upltft and
betterment of "the poor and needy"
at our doors and the helpless ones
thrown upon our mercy by tyranny
and oppression. The very first object
to accomplish is to merge all present
charities under one efficient organ
ization. BY this, the good done will
be doubled, nay, trebled, even with
the funds now contributed to the over
ly many societies. Proper accounts
rendered of disbursement is most i'm
portant. This, viewed periodically by
contributors, would stimulate interest
disorganization.
Everyone's sober judgment must APP

den of philanthropic efforts falls on
