In convcrzatlon one day last v.-ee'.t Dr.
l.oo M. Frankllu. now of Detroit, formerly
rabbi at Teniplo Israel tn this city, who Is
lovltltltig friends hero, talked upon tho
ubject of tho Jow of tho twentieth cen
tury. Dr. Franklin Is ono of tho recog
nized leaders of tha reform movement In
ttm Jewish religion nnd his opinion outltues
tlio expectations of tho reformers within
the next century.
"At tho dawn of tho twentieth century,"
bald ho, "tho Jewish religion nnd Jewish
philosophy stand upon tho threshold of
their greatest accomplishments. With tho
Introduction of tho reform movement Juda
ism has thrown off most of Its formalism
and has become n religion of life, rnlhcr
than ono of fulth. In Its Htrugglo with tho
now movement, tho so-callou" orthodoxy Is
handicapped by tho fact thut It cannot hold
tho child. Another generation will find
practically nil of tho Jews In tho reformed
congregation. This Is shown In all of tho
largo cities. In Detroit, because of tho
crowded condition of our Hchool room, wo
found It necessary to restrict tho attend
ance nl our Sunday school to Hiobo children
of persons not mombors of orthodox con
gregations having Sunday schools. Ah soon
no tlto now rulo woe promulgated I received
letters from n hundred orthodox Jowb
pleading with mo to lot their children at
tend my Sunday school, and baying that
If thoy did not attend my school they would
loavn tho faith entirely. Then wo enlarged
tho room and divided tho classes.
"Tho formalism of tho orthodox congre
gations docs not nppcnl to tho young, and
they may bo depended upon to become moro
liberal In tho faith or to Join other socie
ties. Thoro is In tho Jew n quality, the
result of centuries of training, which com
pels him to remain a Jow. Ho may Join
a Christian church, but at heart ho Is not
chauged. This being tho case ho comes
to us, whoro ho Is frco from tho narrow
forms of tho old organizations nnd yet
retains tho faith of his fathers.
World In IIcciiiiiIiik Imliil.eil.
"In my opinion tho world Is becoming
Judalzed. Talo tho thinkers of all other
denominations and wo find them becom
ing moro liberal. While tho orthodox
Christian churches retain to a largo de
gree their nominal membership, wo 'Hurt
tho spirit of that membership changing.
As n result creeds arc being questioned and
tho minds of men are becoming broader,
Take tho Unitarian church, an organization
which has within It tho most enlightened
minds of tho age. It Is, In Its last analy
sis, nothing but tho Juwlsh faith without
tho history of that people. Tho Jew bo
llovna In tho religion of action, tho Chris
tian In tho religion of faith. 'Bollove nnd
bo saved,' Is tho watchword of oil of the
Christian churches, and as a result by a
system of proscription they condemn nil
persons not members of their church. Tho
low would say, 'Do what you beltevo to ba
right, bo sluccro In your belief nnd honest
.vlth yourself nnd nil mankind, and you
.vlll enjoy whatever salvation thcro Is to
come.' For this reason the Jew does not
'bellovo In missionary work. Wo do not
strlvo for prosolytcs, and would rather
havo poopln hollevo as wo do under wliat
ever name thoy may bo pleased to associate
thomsolves together than to havo them ac
counted Jews.
"With an Increase lu liberal thought men
are mora and more coming to tho Jowlsh
Idea of salvation by works rather than by
faith. This Is what is giving an impetus
to our cause, which Is greater than any
work which can bo dono by mero theorists
Not only in America, but In ull countries
this Increasing liberalism Is npparcnt.
With Its history of centuries tho Jowlsh
religion stnnds out aa ono which lllls all
tho requirements of tho highest phaso of
human life. Every man has within him
the1 elements of salvation and from within,
not from without, must como tho force
which Is to make tho Individual linppy
hero and hereafter.
In Van of Itclluloii Tliouulit.
"For this reason tho Jow of tho twentieth
century In tho movement which wad begun
lu tho present, will find himself tn thu van
of religious thought and of religious effort.
Recognizing this fact, tho leaders of tho
reform movement nro paying moro atten
tion to tho religious Instruction of tho
child. Formerly ho left the Sunday school
when ho was young nnd his Ideas half
formed. Today wo follow tho training of
tho young child with Instruction wilch is
pursued for years. Tho young men and
young wotnon nro called upon to take part
In religious services and to learn tho reason
for their faith. They arc taking hold of
tho work with n will. Tho notlo principle
In reformed Judaism appeals to them as
much as tho formalism of orthodoxy Is
repugnant and therefore wo nre having n
revival such as was never known In the
modern history of tho Jewish people. As
the older generation passes from the field
of nctlou tho old observances will pass with
them and tho twentieth century will eo
Judaism renewed, stripped of Its cold" for
malism nnd filled with nn nctlvo spirit of
humanity which will placo It as ono of tho
lending forces In the religious nnd phllo
oophlcal world."

"No!" blurted the boy. "It phon-a the

"I suppose you'll be sorry when the time

tho Episcopal church, nnd a, few Sundays
sinco sho wa token with them to tho serv

Tho mother, wondering what tho llttlo tot

Alice answered! "They kept snylng, 'In-

When sho camo to tho "Amen" she uttered

cookery that usually produces the least
pleasing results, because bo generally mis
understood. Failure In this line Is always
so very apparent and leads to tho wnsto of
much good material. The principal reason
why our coolti so often fall In trying sue
cossfully Is that thy have no detlnlto Iden
of tho distinction between tho two methods
and mute, or dry fry, everything.
Saute, or dry fry, should be employed In
cooking omelets, liver and bacon, some
kinds of fish, chopped vegetables and pan
cakes. Sauto means to cook food in Just
sufficient quantity of fat to brown nlcoiy
and provent tho articles from burning.
Articles that nro sauted must bo kept In
constant motion nnd turned frequently to
provent their being greasy or sticking to
tho pan.
Wet fry constitutes real frying tho term
so abused nnd misused by most cooks. The
first conslditatlon Is to have sufficient fat
to cover tho artlclo entirely, in ordor that
the heat may be conveyed to every part In
uniform manner nnd at the samo time
above and below; tho cooking dono quickly,
to that tho flavor of tho food Is not de
stroyed or the fat allowed time to penetrate.
Considering tho two mothods from an
economical standpoint only, tho uso of a
qunntlty of fat for frying Is not extrava
gance, especially when tho vegetable fats
aro used, for these fats can bo employed
again and again and tho sntno fat will
answer for a very dlvcrso class of materials,
Tho small quantity of fat used for Bautlng
articles In tho usual manner gets scorched
nnd Is always thrown away as unfit for
further uso, while the food cooked In thla
manner Is far less Indigestible.
Successful frying will produce! an oven
color from a golden to a rich brown, ac
cording to uhadn desired, while articles
badly fried will have a mottled appoaranco
and are sodden, greasy and altogether un
attractive. To attain perfection In this lino
of cooking requires but llttlo knowledge
and skill and by tho observance of certain
rules falluro Is Impossible. Ily this mothod
ono cau produce so many dainty creations
from materials that have already graced tho
family board In a well known form. A
delicate, dainty ontreo need not necessarily
Incur an additional expense for new ma
terials, as left-overs furnish tho foundation
for many llttlo surprises In this clnss of
dishes.
Itcmcmbor this ono point In- particular:
Thnt nothing will fry crisp that Is wet, and
both fnt nnd food must bo dry tn order to
get good results, rty dry fat wo mean per
fectly frco from water. Tho artlclo to bo
fried -is, ns n rule, first dipped In beaten,
diluted egg nnd then rolled In lino brend
crumbs. All the dipping nnd covering
should bo done beforo beginning to fry nnd
tho articles allowed to get dry on tho sur
face. When Hour Is used for tho covering
of the food Instead of egg and crumbs fry
nt once.
Tho expression, boiling hot fnt, is too
frequently used and leadB many to supposo
that tho fat docs bubblo and boll lu tho
kettlo when at the proper temperature.
Tho ebullition of tho fat while heating and
after food Is immcrsod In It Is caused by
water in tho fnt and In the articles placed
In It. As the fat nenrs tho proper torn
pcrnturo It becomes silent, though not en
tirely motionless, as will bo seen by watch
ing It closely. Only lard must be heated to
tho smoking point. Vogotnblo oils aro
lighter and free from all heavy substances
nnd reach nn Intense hent before. the smok
ing point Is attained; for this reason, as
well as many others as satisfactory, tho
vegetable fats aro much preferred to tho
animal. Tho former nro not greasy, cannot
burn unless heated to a point whoro they
will scorch the food before It can be heated
through, and docs not throw out tho strong,
heavy odor wo get from lard.
rteclpcs to tho contrary, fat must not
boll, but must bo hot enough to Immedi
ately contract tho tissues of tho meat, or
harden tho albumen of the egg and car
bonize tho crumbs which nro used for cov
ering and protecting tho food from tho fat.
Tho quicker tho food can bo fried tho moro
dlgestlblo nnd less greasy It will be.
Tho ordlnnry, slmplo tests nro reliable,
though, of course, Judgment must regulate
tho temperature somowhat according to tho
slzo of the articles. Fo'r oysters, croquettes
nnd such foods ns do not require much moro
than to be thoroughly heated through, test
by throwing a pleco of dry bread crumb In
the fat. If It browns Immediately tho fat
Is hot enough. Do not placo too ninny
articles In tho fat at ono time, as each ono
Iower3 tho temperature nnd must llo soak
lug lu the chilled fat whllo It reheats. If
frylus raw potatoes, tost with n piece of
potato, giving It time to cook mealy and
dry without getting too brown. Tempera
turo for raw doughs and batters can be
tested In like manner. Thcro is nothing so
easy or satisfactory ns frying, If you know
how to do It, and tho art Is acquired In
much less tlmo than It takes to oxplaln tho
process. If every Individual woman would
determine to learn "Just how" to do tho
things that seem such stumbling blocks In
her dally round of household duties she
would soon look upon theso dutlos as ac
complishments of which sho might feel
Justly proud, Instead of regarding thom In
tho light of trlnls and tribulations to bo
avoided if possible, and, If not, dlschnrged
with scant ceremony.

To Women who Work.
What tragedy for the wage-earning woman is hidden
beneath the wordfi " I am not well enough to work " !
Every penny of her slender income is needed for tho
necessaries of life for herself and others. Seldom, indeed,
is it that the girl or woman who works in a factory, or in
some business office or storo, has merely herself to support.
Nearly always there is an invalid mother or sister, perhaps
a brother or father.
Sho taxes her endurance, therefore, to the last limit be
fore giving up.
Sho knows her place will be filled by some one else.
Sho has no money laid up. Her wages have been in
sufficient for her pressing needs and she has spent money
on doctors, trying to keep at work and h61d her place.
But it's no uso she has reached the limit. In her fight
with female troubles sho has como off second best, as
myriads of women have before her.
What will happen, now that she has lost hor placo and
has broken down in health ?
Theso heart-stirring stories are being lived all around
us in large cities, and, every one of them might havo been
a story of health and energy, if the young woman had but
written to Mrs. Pinkham when she first felt ill. She would
have been told just how to make herself well and strong, as
many other women have, and this advice would have cost
hor nothing.
And it is not alone in factories and business places that
women are forced to. give up on account of ill health. It is
quite av. ofton tho woman who does hor own work at home.
This moans, generally, doing the work for a housohold of
sevoh or eight.
She also compels herself to attend to the daily round of
duties whon sho ought to bo in" bed, and does not know
whoro to look for that reliable help that will put her on her
feet and stop those awful aches and pains.
Tho sure help for all ailing women, who work at homo
or elsewhere, is JLydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com-'
pound. Women who have used it testify to this with ono
voice.
When tho periods are painful or too frequent; whon tho
backaches and headaches drivo out all ambition; whon tho
hoart-breaking, "dragged-ddwn" sensation attacks you;
whon you aro so nervous that every trivial thing excites
you, you may be cortain that there is some growing trouble
fastening itself upon 'you. Do not lot disease make head
way. Write to Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass., for her free
advice, and begin at once tho use of
Lydm Em Pinklmm's
Vegetalile Compound.
From Women Cured by Mrs. Pinkham.
" Dear Mns. Pinkham : I write to thank you
for tho gopd Lydla IE. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound and Sanative Wash have done me.
It is now six years stneo I was taken sick. I

am (now well. If you like, you may uso my
lottcr for the benefit of others." Miss Katie P.
Junqlas, New Sulem, Mich.
" Dear Mrs. Pinkham : It ufTords me a great deal of pleasure to ex
press my praise of your valuable Vegetable Compound. Words cannot
tell what your medicine did for me. It saved my life. I wus so weak
and nervous, would have very bad hemorrhages. I did not do anything
for a year, not even attend to my own family. I fluttered beyond de
scription ; hiy physician said I could not get well without an operation,
which 1 refused to have. I tried all kinds of medicine, but they did me
no good. A friend recommended Lydla E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound. I used it and the Sanative Wash, and am now onjoying the best
of health. Ihopo that all suffering women will tuke your medicine."

" Dear Mrs. Pi.nkit'am : I havo been so delighted
with your Vegetable Compound I thought I would
write and thank you. My system was entirely run
down; I suffered with terrible backache in thesmalL
of my back and could hardly atand upright; waa
more tired in the morning than on retiring at night.
I had no appetite. Sinco taking Lydln E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound I havo gained fifteen pounds,
and am gaining every week. My appetite has Ira
proved, have no backache, and 1 look belter than I
ever looked before. I shall recommend it to all my
friends, as it certainly is a wonderful medicine.'
Mrs. E. F. Morton, York St., Cincinnati, O.
" Dear Mrs. Pinkham ; I had been in poor health for twenty years,
having Inflammation of ovaries and womb trouble. Although treated
by physicians, I could not seem to gain any strength, and could not do
my work, and was so low spirited and tired of life. A friend advised mo
to take Lydla E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. The lit bottlo
strengthened me nnd I wrote you. After taking six bottles, can say that
1 am well und can oven do my washing. 1 cheerfully recommend your
Vegetable Compound to every ono with any female weakness, and cannot
praise It enough." Mus. M. W. Mh.lkr, 1033 Canal St., Oulfport, Miss.
"Dkar Mrs. Pinkham : It is with pleasure that
I add my testimony to your list, hoping it may induce
others to avail themselves of tho benefit of your val
uable remedy, llefore taking Lydla E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound I felt yory bad, had terrible
slckheadaches, no appetite, gnawing pain in ntomuch,
pain in my buck and right side; wus tired and ner
vous, and so weak I could scarcely stand, I was not
able to do anything, hud sharp pains all through my
body. llefore I had. takon half a bottle of your
medicine, I found mytelf Improving, I continued its
use until I had taken four bottles and felt so well that
I did not ueed any more. I am llko a new person."
