A few of the epigrams which he then coined concerning the characteristics of the Hebrews are here effered: Tho Jews had no country of their own. They could not possess the land of their fathers in reality. So they made a portable Palestine. They car ried it wherever they went. This was a spiritual country. It could not be as sailed by their oppressors. There have been two conceptions of the Jew-one that he lends money and wants it back again, the other that ho deals in old clothes. The truth is Jews hmve been everywhere. They have been everything except pope of Rome, and they have come near to that. It they dealt in old clothes it waS because papal decrees forbade them trading to anything ese but old clothes and old Lron. Jews in a way were as good as Unit ed States bonds, only United States bonds may be converted, but when a Jew was converted he lost his value. Because Shylock was rich and Jes. siea beautiful all Jews are rich and all Jewesses are beautiful. I wish it were 0. , A good looking Jew was considered the fool of the family, which is conso lation for some of us. The black plague swept over IDurope. The Jews escaped by reason of their different hygienic laws. The Christians charged them with poisoning the wells, end thousands of Jews were put to Oeath for not dying of the plague, C colonel Roosevelt told me that the lows of his regiment were among his bravest soldiers, and when Hobson had to be kissed It took a Jewess to do it. Jews not only furnished money for Columbus' expedition, but his first lieutenant was a Jew. This officer di covered tobaco. which is gaater than Amaerica. Carlyle said the Jews bad no humos but Carlyle was a Scotchman. A beggar stolo a spoon from a wealth ltr member of his race who bad enter tained him. When detected the beggar said: "By taking the spoon I broke the eighth commandment, which says, "Thou shalt not steaL' If I had not taken it I would have broken the tenth, which says, "Thou shalt not covet.' t saw I had to break one commandment anyhow, so I thought I might as well have the spoon." It has always been the desire of Jew. ish fathers, however rich, to have learn ed sons-in-law, however poor. I do not find this custom prevalent today. To illustrate why there are no good Jews in fietion Mr. Zangwll related the story of the lion and the cub. Te cub had seen a painting of Samson vanquishing the lion, and said to Its parent: "i have seen many contests between lions and men, and always the men have been the victors. Why are there no pictures showing lions over-. powering men?' "It is because we lions have no painters," was the par ent's reply.c The Jews have been scattered to theC four winds among all the nations of the earth. They have been of immense 1 service to every country that has lhar-t boredl them. It reminds me of the story of the crocodile which opened its mouth so that a bird might go into it and eat the leeches which annoyed it. There was mutual benefit from the operation. It is not strange that sometimes the Jews find the crocodile's mouth closing upon them. It was natural that Jews should congregate around their syn. gogues. They became to some extent isolated from the people among whom they dwelt. This isolation brought with It suspicion, and suspicion caused more isolation for mutual protection. In mediaeval times the nations of Ilurope had a conception of the Jewish character compared to which Shah. -speare's Shylock was a saint. It was this that brought about the compulsory ghetto, There are two general types of Jews, the German and the Spanish. The Spanish Jews speak a mixture of Hie brew and Spanish. The German Jews speak Yiddish, a mongrel of bad Ger man and every other language In the .world. !The Jews finanoed the crusades vol untarily and involuntarIly.

Young Lincoln's bodily vigor stood him in good stend in many ways. In frontior life strength and athletic skill served as well for popular anusement as for prosaic toil, and at times, iii(leed, they were needed for personal defense. Every eommunity had its eamiipion wrestler, a man of couxiderahie loenl importance, in whose success the neighbors took a becoming interest. There was not far from New Salemi a settleient called (lary's (rove, where lived a sot of restless, rollieking young backwoodsmene with a strong likiug for frontior athletlcs and rough praetlena jokes. Jnck Armstrong was the leader of thse and until Lncoln's arrival had been the champion wrestler of both Mlary's Grove and New Salem. le and iAs friends had not the slightest per Ponal grudge against Lincoln; but, iearing the neighborhood talk about be newcomer and especialiy Offut's mtravagant praise of his clerk, who, uecording to Offut's statement, knew nore than any one else in the United ftates and could boat the whole coun ty at running, jumping or "wrans ling," they decided that the time had nome to assert themselves and strovo .o bring about a trial of strongth be ween Armstrong and Lincoln. Lfti !oln, who dinnpproved of all this "wool ing and pulling," as ho called It, and ind no desire to come to bl1wn with ALs neighbors, put off the encounter ai long as possible. At length even hlo ood temper was powerless to avert It, md the wrestling match took placo. raek Armstrong soon found that Io mad tackled a mani ase strong and skill ul as himself, anmd his friends, uxeig iaimlikely to get the worst of it, w-armned to his assistaeco, almnost suc seding, by tripping n'nd kicking, ini etting Lincoln down. At the unfaIr ess of this Incoln became suddenly nd furiously angry, put forth his en tre strength, lifted the pride of Clary's irovo ini his armus like a child and, olding him high in the air, uhuost hoked the life out of hinm. It seemed or a umomuent as though ma genernl light nust follow; but even while lancon's lerce rage compelled thieir resp~ect his uinkly returning self control won their idmitration, and the crisis was safoly paused. Instead of becoming enemies and leaders in a neighborhood feud, as night have been expected, the two grew to be warm friends, the affection thus strangely begun lasting through life. 'They proved useful to each other in various ways, and years afterwauid Lincoln wnde nmple amends for his rough trentment of the other's throat by saving the neck of Jack Armstronig's son from the haltor ini a memnorablo trial for murder.

Aft or a few treatments the road begins to take on a perfect form and the rain lo shed from it as water is from a duck's back. In a year or two there is formed a gumbo cement crown or crust over the road from six inches to a foot in thickness, which is almost impervious to water, and simply because the wa ter cannot peietrate this crust the road remains good. The cost of such a machine is not to exceed $2. T'ihe cost to treat the high way in the mainer indleated Is not te exceed $3.50 per mile per* year. Dirt and gumbo roads so tre.ted last year were firm and good roads thh sprIng when all other roads not treated were almost impassable. The secret of the success of this method lies in going over the road fro quently, after every rain at leait. This prevents the road from getting bad rather than repairing it after It is bad. The formation of this puddled cement ed crust over the road secures distribu tion of the travel over its surface and prevents the formation of ruts, which are always the beginning of future mudholes. The most astounding results have followed the adoption of this method in Missouri. Whole neighborhoods have taken it up and secured fine country roads where before it was not possible for theni to be worse. The plan prompts the farmer to make his own drag and operate it on the highway which borders his fari ide pendent of road tax or road boss, and the rewards are so pleasing that he re gards the work as a pleasure. Back and forth over the road about twelve times during the year does the work. The first year's work Is the hardest, as most highways lack conformity to an oval type. This comes little by little, and the work Is easter each succeeding year. One of the leading railways of Iowa was so impressed with the practical value of this new method of treating the dirt roads that it organized a good roads campaigi by which the people on its line have been reached and the method explained and practically deni onstratOd. The e.Tort met with the greatest encouragement, and at every town visited .iarge sums were sub scribed by the busineas men to be of fered as prises to the farmers who would care for the ronds under this plan. It really looks as though a prac tical solution of the problem of unak Ing a good earth road had been found at last. COST OP PRODUCTION. Ieonomy In the pro(.nct!on of farm crops has been but ltte conaidered up to this time. But few farmeri know what their crops cost them. They draw on the latent fertility of their soils just n a man draws on his ae count at the bank, only most of them forgot to make deposits to draw against. The manufacturer does differ ontly. He regards It as a most vital thing connected with the success of his busliees to know Just what his product costs, and if thero be any way where by such coat of production may be0 re duced he very quickly avails himself of it. Some men raise corn at an expense of but 15 cents a bushel, wvhile it costs sonme other men 5 0 cents. One man will feed a beef animal and mnake men-1 ey on It; more foed cattle and lose mon oy in so doing. Ignorance of the busi ness lie, at the bottom of failures In farming, because what one man does another man could do if lhe only knew how. More men want to know how thani ever before. MOLASSES AS STOCK PEED. At ail the sugar refining plats' the ,molnsnes has always been a waste product in a large sense. It has been used for fuel and for the mnaking of roads, whiie endless quantities of It have been dumped as garbage. With in a few years the value of molasses as a stock food has been developed, and some very surprising results have been obtained. It has been found that with the heavy draft horsea of Newv York etty a ration of ten or twelve pounds of rnolaapse per day has effected a sav ing of 25 per cent in the cost of feed ing such horses, with an added umn provemont in the general health and effectiveness~ of the horse so fed. In sonme parts of the south it was most ad vantsgeously fed to mules, reducing the cost of their keel) 50 per cent. It is now being used in the northern states as a mixer for ground alfalfa hay, mak lng an admirable dairy ration for the milk cow. The best inventive genius of the country is at work on the utiliza tion of Its products with wonderful A DIFFICULT CROP, We are asked about beans as a crop, whether it pays to raise them as a fild crop.
