BIG JEWISH FEAST
 BEGINS ON SUNDAY

The feast of Rosh Hashanah or Newyear's day, which inaugurates the most solemn season of the Jewish re- ligious year. begins this year on Sum day evening and lasts till sundown next Tuesday. This holiday opens the Jewish calendar year 5675. The ob- servance of these days as holy sea- son is commanded in two passagess of the Pentateuch, namely, Levfticus 'xxiii: 24 and Numbers xxfxs 1. Tn neither passage is there any specific command as to how the day is to be observed beyond the injunctions to blow the trumpet, to hold a holy con- vocation; and to engage in no servile occupation. During the morning Ser vices of Monday and Tuesday the sho- far will be blown. The shofGr is an Instrument made of a rams horn, and the injunction to blow it on this day was to cen the people to remembrance before the Lord. This ceremony of blowing the shofar is now the central feature of the elaborate religious ser vice coNducted on that day.. The sound of the shofar Is to arouse the Hebrews to their shortcomings and to their duties in which they may have failed The day is called on this ac-

UNIFoRsETfTY ~ MEMS DRESS

One of fhe humorous phases Of the clothes question is the uniformity of men's styles. This varies in inverse proportion to age. Your little man ject to this rigidity. If all the other boys are wearing caps. it is a. terrible trial to him to appear in a hat.
 You may prove to him that your selection is the latest New York style But if the boys of his home set are not wearing it. it becomes obnoxious and hated His feeling is 5udfcious trifle from the accepted form in his particular circle. it is sure to find it's way to the mud puddle, and that speedily
 When you get to the age of the college boy, the same spirit is nearly as powerful. All hoys will be found wearing the same thing under the same circumstances. If one is wear ing derby hat on the opening day. all of them are doing so. At uegH- gee hours, all are roaming about in most nondescript knockabouts.
 Men sti1I have certain rigid epochs of dress. The straw hat is supposed to be very largely called in on September s15. Within a few days. they nayster- tously disappear as if by universal agreement. On the stock exchanges. an offender against this code is as- s1sIed to cOnIorIn esl0 Ine unlVerSa1 practice. In other circles, the wear ing Of a straw hat a few days too late, makes one the subject of derisive re marks.
 AS men grow older. they have more individuality in dress. And this in dividuality is growing The soft hat. for instance, has wider vogue than if had a few years ago.
 Any man can improve his appear ance by fitting his clothes to his own personality and physique. Some few years ago, thin men were made ridiculous by conforming to the rage for tight clothes. Now 8 slender man can present a rather rugger appear ance. by well fitted suit built on full lines.

Rumor of. 3 New Telephontc Device Gives the World a ohilI.

q
 Once more that insidious rurnor bobs up. We refer to the statement that a device has been perfected whereby we can see each other over the telephone.
 But isn't this about the last thing we desire to do2 Imagine the case of ty line phone Monday morning to houses up the street. Would she want her uncombed dishability Not per ceptfbIy.
 Think of the fussy little man who rips and rants at the phone because he can't get 8 discontinued number. to gigg1e at his infIamed face. his popping eyes, his sandy Wisps of wIiskers Surely not.
 Would 1t add to the comfort Of a nagging wife to glance through the tell-tale wire and get look at the powdery peachiness of huloby's stem ographer? Don't think of it.
 And when the sentimental man hears the beautiful voice over the phone and builds romantic bungalows around it, and paints. in fancys the charms that might be supposed to go with 1t. would it do him any good to discover the exquisite voice was in close company with a squint and extra size freckles
 If mental Ignorance is bliss, optical Ignorance is no less so. To give up two senses to the talking wire is quite enough. Cleveland Plain Dealer

The answer is GOING.

In towns made "wet" by the
