Seals Again Plentiful.

Under the precautions taken to pre-
vent the extinction of the fur seals In
Alaska and the Pribilof islands the
species has multiplied so rapidly that
the bureau of fisheries now recon-.
mends that the killing of male seals
be resumed.
Ever since the signing of the pc.
lagic treaty between Russia. England
Japan and our own nation. prohibit
ing the destruction Of COW seals upon
the high seas, the government has
taken an occasional census Of the
seals. The last of these fixed the
number OF seals owned by the United
States at 3O1 ,S44. as against less than
twenty thousand in 1906.
Besides fur, other possible use of the
seal is being considered by the bureau
OF fisheries. The scarcity OF the
worlds meat supply and the tremen-
dous increase in seals as revealed by
the last census suggest the shipping
OF seal meat to the United States for
food. Those who have tasted It say
that meat from young seal is deli.
cious In flavor and that seal steak
would be popular addition to a fash
ionable hotel menu.

WAR-CRIES USED BY THE JEW
They Are Many and in All Tongues,
But Another One Is Said to
Be Coming.

THE Jew has as many war-cries as
there are tongues in Europe, for he
fights with them all; and then he has
his own war-cry, that eternal tearful
cry of his that in these days is rending
the heavens over Russian and Galician
Polands," q r. Lipsett writes in the
Century.
And still there is another and a
newer cry coming, the war-cry of the
neutral Jew. To arms! to arms! Is
rael! has arisen. the sudden thunder
ing. cry throughout the length and
breadth of the New York Ghetto and
all the other Ghettos in the larger
cities of America.
I'VE know. of course. what are the
arms of the Ghetto Jew; they are
| tongue and pen. By means of these
it is intended to raise the Jew from
the depths of his ashes and make him
live nation again. A congress of
American Jews Is to be called and 1t
is to demand, at the conclusion of the
war, or before it. the return of Pales'
tine to its ancient owners For the
Jews are nation. and they must have
a land and Palestine is theirs.
THAT is to say. in brief, that while
nearly three-quarters of million Jews
on the European battlefields are at
one anothers throats. in vindication
each of different nationality. the
Jews far away from the bursting shells
and glittering bayonets are calling out
to them: No, you are all in the wrong.
For you are all one.'
1T is not for us to determine
not for one man to tell another what
he should be. One is what one feels

The gasping was more pronounced
and Sandry. his face like ashes. raised
the old man higher in his arms. hold

He glanced appealingly at Doctor Cen
try, who shook his head. Then the
son smiled down bravely in the bright
eyes upon his face.

son. A man-and a good-son. I'm
satisfied-nay-mo bless ed.
Amen. A"
The word trailed off suddenly, leav'
ing the lips open. There was a long
breath. broken abruptly The eyes
closed naturally, slowly. The white
head slid gently down from Sandry' q
shoulder.
With cry that rang through the
room. Walter Sandry sprang up. lifting
the body.
"Father!" he cried once terribly
Then he laid it back upon the bed
turning away with shaking lips.
He clasped his hands hard behind
him, while Doctor Gentry came silent
ly and laid an arm around his shoul
ders.
In his soul was waging seethinr
turmoil of emotions-anguish and sol
emn Joy shame and triumph, certainty
and uncertainty.

AT peace and content" while before
