The Jew Is Not a Natural

By OSCAR 5.

STRAUS, Twice Minister to Turkey

INSTEAD of the Jew being a natural barteror, ho is the most spiritual man alive. lie has been hounded by the ages, Tobbed and maesacred, but he yields neither his traditions

nor HIS IDEALS. Had he been materialistic he would

have sold out long ago and BOUGHT PEACE. If he would join the Greek church he would be safe in Ilussia. Rather than do that he will walk into the jaws of hell. The Jew, denied his civil rights, despoiled of his property, scourged and murdered, has only been made tougher and longer lived. His enemies have given him strength and TRAINED HIM MOST ADMIRABLY for the battle of life, no matter in what part of the world fortune may lead him. Years ago Americans did the rough and heavy work of the nation. Then came tho Irish, and the Americans MOVED UP. By and by the Italians swarmed in, and the Irish graduated from the trenches. When Broadway was much shorter than it is now ALL OF THE NAMES on the signs were American. But those old time merchants became opulent, they no longer desired to be small shopkeepers, and bo they went into the banks and manufactories. 2STow the Jews have their stores. In a generation the signs which hang and swing today in Broadway will bo down and others will be up. Perhaps the names will be Italian. No race goes back in this country, but each, being prudent, industrious and ambitious, goes onward TO BETTER CONDITIONS. I have spoken of tho spirituality .of the Jew, a characteristic for which, in my opinion, he is particularly distinguished over some other races, but generally he is like the rest of mankind. I believe, however, that he is INTENSELY PATRIOTIC, and I am proud of the part ho has taken in the development of this country. I think the Jews to be equal in patriotism to any class of Americans. You hear that the Jewish mind is exceptionally ACUTE. That is an exaggeration. All of us want the things which are withheld. THE JEW, DEPRIVED OF AN EDUCATION IN VARIOUS PARTS OF EUROPE, COMES HERE AND, FINDING FREE SCHOOLS, SATISFIES THE HUNGER FROM WHICH HIS MIND AND HEART HAVE LANGUISHED, HIS INTELLECT IS THE AVERAGE AND NO MORE.

TKEATEICAL NOTES. The Dramatic company at the Chicago opera house continues to add success to success, and has won high praise again this week for the production of "The Little Minister." Thf piece is not by any means new, but ir. the hands of the capable company it has none of the shopworn taints oftf-r found among stock productiun. For the week starting next Sunday afternoon, Oct. 14, the company will turn aside from the paths of dainty come dies and society plays in which it has hitheito trod and will enter the tieic of f-trong drama, producing William Gillette and Conan hoyie's virile plav "Sherlock Holmes." The drama is ont that is full of exciting incidents and thrilling moments from start to fini-h It is a fight between the brain of i: detective, the greatest in his line, ano the brain of a criminal who was known as the Napoleon of crime. Into it thert

creeps a tender love interest, the neces sary note of humanity. William Bram

well will be seen in the role of tin-

great detective in which Mr. Gillette was previously so entirely successful.

Tne play will be given wiio full scenic

equipment. The usual matinees will lie

igven on Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday

and Saturday.

MODES IN BABYLAND

NOTHING TOO EXPENSIVE FOR THE UP TO DATE LAYETTE.

'"Out of the Larkness," one of the prettiest dramas of Kngllsh and Amciican life of the present day, is announced as the attraction at the Calumet theater, South Chicago, for the week beginning with the matinee, Sunday, October 7. In this play Manager Connors feels that he could not have selected a play more to the likeink of his patrons, who now come from all sections of the Calumet region. The play will be staged in a costlymanner and the strongest cast tnat has been seer, at the Calumet this year will be used In the presentation of "Out of the Darkness." There are many very interesting scenes in this pit ce and an abundance of good, wholesome comedy. The playing is stirling and its climaxes aie interesting. The vaudeville will be headed by the world's famous black face comedian, Raymond Teal, tv'ao has no superiors and few, if any equals, in his particular lino of work. Little Miss Rayfkld will sing the Illustrated songs and the kinodrome will have another of those interesting sets of pictures.

English. Farmers Ways

And the American Plan By JAMES WILSON. Secretary of Atfriculture U T is true, as J. J. Hill says, that the British grow on an average i thirty bushels of wheat an acre to ours of less than fifteen. JL, But we can get thirty IF WE ADOPT THEIR METHODS. They fertilize for a root crop every four or five years, and then grow wheat the next year, and that only on the best land. They grow barley and oats on the poorer land. Wheat grew twenty to thirty bushels in Iowa fifty years ago. Now little is grown, because the farmers find STOCK GROWING more profitable. But the Iowa blue grass lands can be turned up today and will produce as big wheat crops as ever. In the Mississippi valley the farmer nowadays works altogether for corn, and his system of rotation is based on the requirements of

the CORN AND LIVE STOCK that he wishes to produce. There need be no fear of the capacity of the soil to feed the population which Mr. Hill expects to see here. And I don't question his figures, either. We will have the results too. But we must have different farming methods. fr TTill'c nhanrvnfinna nn trip snViiprt rtf fnrm

t help are correct. But it is hard to do much for the

farmer at this point. HELP IS EXPENSIVE AND SCARCE. But better appliances make it produce more. A vear ae;o, traveling in the southwest,

I saw this well illustrated. In Arkansas and Tennessee I would see a man cultivating behind a single horse that might weigh 800 or 900 pounds. Going on to Oklahoma, that man would be working with

two horses. Up in the corn country of Kansas or Iowa he would have

Fail of Their Purpose

By Professor W. W. FOLWELL. University of Minnesota

T is highly questionable if our modern schools are doing as much FOR CULTURE as did those of a generation ago.

The little American college, with its unadulterated classical

course, the "'female seminary,'' the select school, and even the common school of earlier days did LITTLE FOR LEARNING, but much for taste and manners. The American university in its present estate, being merely the American college multiplied by ten or twenty, can make little elaim to superior advantages for culture. But the outlook is hopeful. It can bo seen that the American university is SLOWLY ascending to a higher level. When it shall have relegated to the secondary school the elementary studies of its first two years it will be liberated for its proper

Comedy rules again at the Chicago opora house this week and the dramatic company has scored another whirlwind success in' Jerome K. Jerome's merry play, "Miss Ilobbs."

A NEW CAP. gether with the daintiest of hand work -but very little trimming is seen, and what is employed is in tiny babyish designs wrought as delicately as frostwork on a window pane. This delicate stitchery is what makes the little garments so costly, and the woman clever with her needle can fashion equally pretty wear for only the cost of the material. For ceremonious wear when baby is on parade the robe illustrated is an excellent example of the best baby modes. Of sheer linen, with real Valenciennes let into the material and dainty touches of embroidery at intervals to help out the design, nothing could be more charming. The bottom is edged with a frill of the Valenciennes surmounted by the insertion, and bows of soft ribbon ornament the shoulders. The first baby caps are very pretty, made of fine handkerchief linen daintily embroidered and edged with lace. These are worn over a little silk lining, wadded or plain, according to the temperature, and can be readily fashioned from fine French handkerchiefs if one does not care to buy them outright. The cap illustrated is a very new design and

How to Judtje ?VIelon. The first point in judging your melon Is the weight. A heavy fruit is a good fruit, and if heavy, says the Pittsburg Dispatch, only the question of ripeness remains to bo decided. A good riptness test is the odor. A ripe fruit is fragrant, spicy, tempting to the nostrils. Mnskmelons with deep furrows and' rough surfaces are sound and sweet. The color in the furrows is also worth noting. If very greeny green It is underripe; yellow, and it is apt to be mushy. A very smooth surface often means that tho melon is overripe. It may be sweet, but It will be too soft and dry for perfection.

How to Manage an Oil Store. To take care of an oil stove, thoroughly clean and refill every time after using. If you allow oil and dirt to accumulate on it.

are going to light It again. Remember that the top of the part up and down which the wick runs needs to be kept

thoroughly clean. Give It a rub insida

How to Clean Japanese Fnrultnrr, To clean Japanese furniture mix together one pint of strong cold tea, one pint of linseed oil, the whites of two eggs and two ounces of irlts of salt.

Take a pad of old soft linen, pour a few drops on to this after well shaking the bottle and then polish It up with an old silk handkerchief.

Mr. Milward Adams, director of the Chicago Auditorium, and the Klaw A: Erlanger company, controlling the pro

duction of General Lew Wallace's "BenIlur", have arrangedto take especial care of theatre parties from out of town points during the engagement of "Ben-Hur" at the Auditorium theatre, beginning Monday evening, Oct. 15th. Since the announcement that this mighty play was again to be staged at the classic Ciiicago temple of amusement, the management have received so many inquiries as to railroad rates and requests for special prices for admission from educational institutions and fraternal organizations desiring to attend in a body that they have decided to make reduced rates to theatre parties, either from educational institutions, fraternal organizations, or from the general public. The various railroads entering the city of Chicago have agreed to cooperate by granting special rates. Full information will bo furnished on application to Mr. Edward G. Cooke, Auditorium theatre, Chicago. The regular scale of prices that will govern the "Ben-IIur" engagement at the Auditorium are as follows: Lower floor on evenings and Saturday matinee. $1.50 and fl. 00; Balcony, $1.00 and 75 cents; gallery, 50 cents. Wednesday matinees, entire lower floor, $1.00; entire balcony, 75 cents; gallery, 50 cents. Seats are now obtainable. Requests

for reservation of seats must be accompanied by remittance and self-addressed, stamped en elope for reply, in order to avoid errors, and will be given prompt attention.

Match marks on the kitchen wall, which have been caused by carelessly striking matches on them, will disappear if rubbed first with the cut surface of a lemon, then with a clean cloth dipped in whiting. Afterward wash the surface with warm water and soap, and then quickly wipe with a clean cloth wrung out of clear water.
