C,erfaii1l-teed
COMPETITION.
The Kind That Wins.

In fair competition lies the true
sport OF good business. There Is
no calling, no profession, or occu-
patton, equal to it for absorbing in
tcrest and endless succession Of ex-
citing incident. E;t 1t should be
that kind of, a healthy competition
ard friendly riv,-lry that does not
strain nesShborly relations. On
the contrary, it should tend to
bring those men together who are
engaged in q s'.,,,ar business for
The purpose of free discussion and
publicity CT opinion.
Unfortunately. this does not often
occur. Men engaged in a like bus
ilcss sometimes get too friendly,
combine their interests. and form
a combination, contrary to the laws
OF the realm.
Others enter into o bitter per-
sonal conflict with each other. en-
deavoring with might and main to
throw ignominy upon end disre-
spect for the house of their COM
petitors and their goods.
The Intensity of the competitive
struggle is subject to a great deal,
of variation. At times it may be
characterized as cut-throat. where
tho slashing Of prices has for its
object the elimination of one or
more of tho contestants. Each
competitor lis confronted by the
evor-prescnt threat that il his
service Is poor. or the quality OF
his goods is not up to the stand
ava, some Other house OF business
will outstrip him. But the house
that considers service, high quality
and no more than a fair profit as
tho paramount. factors in business,
IS the one that in the long run is
sure to win.

A DAY OF FASTING
At This Time Hebrews Fast and Pray
TO Eject Reconciliation Of
SOuI With Eternal
Right.

The Day of Atonement, Yom Kip
pur. the hottest day in the Jewish cal
endar, falls this year on the thlftletu
day of September The Hebrew date
is the 10th of Tishri. The festival is
ordained in Levitieus XVI 1884 and
XIII 1882 In both passages 1t is
styled "A Sabbath of Solemn Rect
Special services will be conducted
tonight at 7:45 o'clock at Temple
Anche Emeth The feast will continue
all day Wednesday, beginning at 1880
o'clock in the morning. Services VIII
! be conducted both morning and al
ternoon, with a special sermon by
Rabbi Joseph Jasin.
The purpose of the Day of Atone
ment is clearly indicated by its name.
} 1t is intended to complete and crown
/ the work of the penitential season,

Yea:}. by finally reconciling the soul
with the Almighty. Implicitly trust
ing in the Divine forgiveness, the Is
raelite believes that his contrition, ii
it be really sincere, will atone for
him, will make him Eat one once
more with his heavenly Father The
day, then, is devoted to supreme eff
fort of penitence, to a mighty endeav-
or after communion with the Al
mighty. 1t is spent in prayer and
meditation.
{, 1t is kept, too, as fast, in obedi-
ence to the command given in each
of the two passages above cited where
the expression "afflict his soul" must
4 be understood, in accordance with the
traditional Interpretation, as synony-
nous with fasting.
The chief, the real aim of the Day
of Atonement is the return from evil
to good, or in other words, the recon-
Citation of the individual soul with
the external right which is of God
All the external elements of the
days observance-its worship and
austerities-are intended to promote
this supreme purpose. They cannot
do duty for it. The act of fasting is
partly to serve as self-imposed
chastisement, and partly it has a re-
