THAT EBREW JEW.
BY HKF.T IIARTE.
There once was a tradesman renowned as a screw,
Who sohl pins and needles and calicoes too,
Till he built up a fortune?the which as it grew
Just ruined small traders the wholcciiy throughYel
one thing he knew,
lletween ine and you,
There was a distinction
'Twixt Christian and Jew.
Till he died in his mansion, a great millionaire?
The owner of thousands?hut nothing to spare
For the needy and poor, who from hunger might
drop,
And only a pittance to clerks in his shop,
liul left it all to
A Lawyer, who know
A subtile distinction
'Twixt Ebrcw nnd Jew.
This man was no trader, but simply a friend
(If this (lent who kept shop, ami who, ncaring
his end,
Handed over a million?'twas only his due,
Who discovered this contrast 'twixt Kbrcw and
Jew
For lie said, "if you view
This esse as I do.
There ?' ? a distinction
'Twixt Kbrcw and Jew. t
"For the Jew is a man who will make money !
through
Mis skill, hisy/MMsc, and his capital, too, t
And an Ebrew's a man that we Meiitiles can t
'do," j
So you see there's a contrast 'twixt Kbrcw and ,
Jew
Fibrew and Jew, *
Jew and Fibrew, t
There's a subtile distinction I
'Twixt Flbrew and Jew."
So lie kept up his business of needles and pins,
I'ut always one day he atoned for his sins, C
Mut never the same day (for that wouldn't do)
That the Jew faced his Mod with the awful
Kbrcw, 1
F'or this man lie knew, I
Met ween me and you, (Tlicre
was a distinction j
"Twixt Fibrcw and Jew.
C
So lie sold soda-water, and shut up the fount s
Of ft druggist whose creed was the Speech on
the Nlount,
And he trntlickcd in gaiters. ami ruined the
trade
Of u German whose creed was by Great I.utlier
made.
But always he knew, a
Between me and you, J
A subtile distinction f
'Twixt Ebrew and Jew.
Then he kept a hotel?here his trouble began-- <
In a fashion unknown to his primitive plan ;
For the rule of his house to his manager ran, |
"Pon t give entertainment to Israelite uiuu."
Yet the manager knew,
Between me ami you,
No other distinction
'Twixt Ebrew and Jew.
"You may give to John Morriscy supper and
wine,
And Madame N. N. to your care I'll resign : u
You'il see that these Jenkins from Missouri Flat
Aro properly eared for; but recollect that
Never a Jew
Who's not an Ebrew
Shall take up his lodgings
llereat the Grand l".

You'll permit the Vau Pains at the waiters to
swear;
You'll llllnw \lis? IWnlluIn In Itii-1 .,i> ll.n -t..!.. .
MuL us to uii Israelite?pray have a care, ^
For, between me ami von,
Though the doctrine is new.
There's u business distinction
"l'wixt F.brew and .lew."
Now, how shall we kuow ? Prophet, tell us,
pray do,
Whore the line of the Hebrew fades into the
lew ?
Skull wo keep out Disraeli ami take Rothschild
iu ?
Or snub Meyerbeer and think Vordi a sin 7
What shall wc do ?
< Hi, give us a few, r
Points to distinguish
"i'wixt Ebrcw and Jew.
There was One?Heaven help us!?who died in
man's place,
With thorns on Ids forehead, but I.ove iu his
face, ~
And when "foxes had holes" and the birds of
the uir
Had their nests in the trees, there was no spot
to spare
For this "King of tlie .lews.'
Did the Romans refuse
This right to the F.brews
Or only to Jews 7
Tiik Hkst Lkuacy foi^ >So.\s.? Every
parent is anxious about the. future of his j
children. This is a natural instinct. Hut .
iu the days of luxury and speculation lathers
make fatal mistakes in regard to their
sons. Even self-in ado men who have won
success through toil and hardship, by amistaken
affection, withhold the discipline that
made them what they are, and which is ab.

of their boys. Ft is well and wisely said '
that the host legacy a man can leave his
children is the ability to take care of them- 1
selves. Fit them for active business or useful
labor and you secure tliein an income for
all time to come. This income is as much
greater in value than the same income derived
from inheritance, as useful employment
is better than idleness. A practical I t
knowledge of some useful business, art or
trade, scorns indcpeusablc in these days of
sharp competition and hardship. And in
selecting employment for your sons, one
thing should be clearly understood?the
market is largely overstocked with clerks _
and salesmen, who expect large pay for littie
work. Success and affluence must ho
looked for in other field*. And those most
promising in good results arc identified with ?'
the demands, growth and development of
the country, where the profits may be small
but sure. ' Small, steady gains lead to competence
and peace of mind." (live a young
man good moral habits and a practical
knowledge of some useful business, and the
chance is that he will not be long in work
iug his way into a position where ho will J
realize ?1,0(1(1 a year?an amount about
equal to the interest on & 15.000. Now a
young man who earns ?1,000 a year is in a
far better position than a thoughtless and ,
idle young spendthrift wln? | ese-se ?15 j

What IIk Would Likk.?As Deacou
\., on an extremely cold morning iu the old
iincs, was riding by the house of an Infidel
eiglibor, Mr. l'otter, the latter was chop>ing
wood. The usual salutations were exihauged,
the severity of the weather briefly
liscusscd, and the horseman made demontrations
of passing on. when his neighbor
lotaincd him with?
"Don't be in a hurry, Deacon; would you
lot like a glass of Jamaica this morning?"
"Thank you kindly," said the old gentlenan,
at the same time beginning to dismount
vitli all the deliberation becoming a deacon,
'Don't care if I do."
"Ah ! don't trouble yourself to get off,
Deacon," said the neighbor." "I merely
isked for the information. We haven't a
Irop in the house."

?where it had lain forgotten fifty years?a

I'crbatim, many passages of the language
ivhieh he sincerely uttered.^ would he not
cad it with more wonder than almost any
itlicr writer could at his ago inspire? lie
vould lose the assurance of his identity utiler
the impression of his immense dissimiarity.
It would seeui as if it must be the

Mr. S, luVgoon has taken the velocipede
into the pulpit. Tu a recent sermon he said:
"these new inventions which the lads were
riding down vur streets, would not keep up
unless they were kept going; the moment
they were stopped they fell down, and in
this they were exceedingly like the Christina
church, winch would fall unless it was
constantly moving on."

A learned sergeant was once accused of
having disgraced the bar by taking silver
from a client, the etiquette of the profession
requiring that his fee should be in gold.?
"1 took silver," he replied, : because I could
not get gold, but I took every farthing the
