Yom Kippur-The Day of Atonement

"Yom Kippur." the day of atonement, is the most solemn holy day iu the Jewish calendar. It is ordained in the Bible fLevit. xxiii-27) to be ob••rved on the tenth day of the seventh month, Ti«hri, which coincides this year with Monday, Sept. 16. It Is a 4*7 of rest, of fasting, of prayer, of penitence and spiritual quickening. Its principal and immediate purpose is to arouse the consciousness of t.S» and to stimulate the desire for atonement and for reconciliation with Ood.

The Hebrew word for repentance is "teshubah.** which mean? literally "refcam." The concept of sin is that the" sinner has strayed from the straight path of righteousness, hap transgressed its boundaries, and his repentance is BJt complete on til be has returned from his transgression to the true way Of life. Confession, contrition and reconciliation with man and God are the e'nmeoU of a proper repentance which le no mere spasmodic or momentary emotion, but a genuine return to the road «t duty, »n selfishness and loyalty.

The duty of fasting is derived from the command, "ye shall ^Lffiict yoursehves** (Ibid. 3S). This phrase is explained by rabbinical teaching to mean the total abstinence from all kinds of food and drink, and from the gratification of bodily desire*. The reasoning underlying this i?. thai the principal source of sin is the gratification of physical appetites, a "return therefore, to thj right way must include an honest attempt to Huppress Srich appetites and encourage selfcontrol. Fasting is an attempt of this kind, hence a duty to fulfill on atonement day.

The day Is very highly regarded among tho Jewish people, and is practically universally and unanimously observed. Places of business, offices and factories are closed. a.nd synagogues both reform and orthodox, are thronged with worshippers. As with Sabbath and all Jewish holidays, the day is observed from "evening to evening," the service beginning on the eve of the day, and on the day itself is Continued the whole day.

Tho day has a most wholesome *T*d spiritualizing influence. Its appeal dons not rest upon any historical incident. It is not a commemoration, but a direct appeal to the human heart and Conscience, an emphasis upnn the duty of personal communion with God, the source of all righteousness, tn the effort to male our human life as godlike as possible, and the doctrine that past misconduct is no necessary deterrent to present goodness of eonduct, for the mercy of the God of justice is ever ready for the genuinely penitent. The promise of pardon is *ver present in the ritual of the day, and the divine forgiveness Is assured to those whose repentance is honest, and whose "return" is complete.

MEN FEEL TIRED, TOO. While much is said about tired wom•n it must be remembered that men al^o pay the penalty at overwork. When the kidneys are weak, inactive ®r sluggish, when one feels tired out and miserable, lacks energy and ambition. Foley Kidney Pills are tonic and Strengthening. Wm. H. Clark, Springfield.
