 It became vaguely difficult to keep

 The religious conceptions and as- pirations Of the New Years day and Of the Day Of Atonement which fol- lows ten days later were undoubtedly evolved in part after the time Of Ezra, The lofty ideas which arc associated with these holy days were gradually interwoven in various eras and under different influences.

 The rabbis have conceived the first day of the holy month of Tishri as a day of dEine judgment when God metes out to each his destiny in &C., cordance with his deeds as recorded In the Book of Life.
 The stirring notes of the Shofar (ram's horn) sounded on this day call the congregation of Israel to repent and to improve their ways. The three blasts of the Shofar which tra- dition has fixed for the liturgy of the New Year proclaims three supreme conceptions of Judaism, namely. that God is King of the world; that he is Judge who judges men and nations in | according to their deeds and thoughts and that He Is Ruler of history.
 The day of judgment is thus set by the Jewish religion In this life and not in an after-world. The main purpose of the New Year is to render It a day of the renewal of the heart, 50 that man may put himself en rar- port with God who inhabits eternity. That the worshipper may restore his Tagging faith in man and lift the clouds of despondency that .engulf him are among the many salutary purposes invoked on this holy day.

 Just what you told the servant that she is to walt for the second table. Ned, you might as we'll make 1t clear in the beginning. otherwise 1t will be problem all through the trip. Wait till she comes in. then tell her"
 Ned agreed, and they waited for the sound of Bess' step on the stair. Mrs. Hardenworths large lips were set in . hard line: I.enore had curious. eager expectancy.
