JEWS NOT EASILY CONVERTED
Sermon to Which They Were Annually
Forced to Listen Failed Of Its
Purpose.

In John Evelyn's diary of January
z, 1915, there is notation of pecu-
liar ceremony which seems to have
been of annual occurrence at Rome.
1t was sermon preached to COM
pulsory congregation of Jews. with a
view to their conversion. Mr.. Evelyn
says they are constrained to sit till
the hour is done, but it is with so
much malice in their countenances,
splitting, humming coughing and mo-
ton, that it is almost impossible they
should hear word from the preacher
conversion is very rare"
The Zionist movement, which has
gone on for years and received a new
impetus by the changes made in mid
die Europe as a result of the world
war, was outlined in poem written
by Robert Browning during his resi-
dence in Italy, probably about the mid
die of the nineteenth century. He
calls 1t Holy Cross Day"

The Irish potato is the most import
ant vegetable in the northern portion
of the United States and is stored in
large quantities for winter use. 1t
may be kept in the storage room in
the basement, in outdoor storage eel
lars, and in banks or pits. When
stored in cellars, the potatoes may be
put into barrels, boxes, baskets, crates,

Not Wholly German DIVERS.

Not only is the Rhine not the
boundary river Of Germany. but neither
It's mouth nor Its source is in German
territory. as Charles M. Pepper points
out In the Washington Star In the
course of discussion of the Rhine as
q factor in peace negotiations. This
has long been cause of modification
to Germany. and to it is partly due the
rise OF the Pan-German movement and
the dream of a Mitteleuropa. The
Rhine flows into the North sea at Rot
terdam in Holland, just as the other
great German river, the Scheldt, flows
into the North sea through Belgium.
Even the Danube pours into the Black
sea, but this fact was not felt as
humiliation by the Pan-Germans be-
cause Of the subservient relation of
Austria to Germany. But for a long
time 1t has been their custom to assert,
sometimes In the most offensive Ian
guage. that Germany must control the
Rhine and the Scheldt to their mouths.

The likeness of certain human types
to familiar animals is a matter of COM
mon observation. Carlcaturists from
the days of the Greeks and Romans
down have made use of its suggestions.
In our daily speech we naturally de-
scribe men as rat-faced, hoggIsh or
foxy in appearance, or say Of noble
looking old man that he possesses a
leonine head.
Still other persons we pronounce
simian, and although few of us would
care to merit a personal application
of that adjective, it need not be
wholly uncompllmentary, as one would
imagine. The dignified and venerable
Charles Darwin accepted it as applied
n himself with no resentment.

# You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason
why it is that so many products that
are extensively advertised, all at once
drop. out of sight and are soon for
gotten? The reason is plain-the
article did not fulfil the promises Of
the manufacturer. This applies more
particularly to a medicine. A medi-
cinal preparation that has real. cura-
tive value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy
is recommended by those who have
been benefited, to those who are in
need of it.
A prominent druggist says take
for example DIR. Kilmer's Swamp
Root, a preparation. I have sold for
many years and never hesitate to
recommend, for in almost every case
it shows excellent results, as many Of
my customers testify. No other kid
ney remedy has so large a sale"
According to sworn statements, and
verified testimony of thousands who
have used the preparation, the sue
cess of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is
due to the fact, so many people claim,
that it fulfls almost every wish in
overcoming kidney, liver and bladder
ailments. correctS urinary troubles
