Bottlebinding.
You can't judge of the quality of a book by the binding,
nor tell the contents by the title. You look for the name
of the author before you buy the book. The name of
Robert Louis Stevenson (for instance) on the back guaran
tees the inside of the book, whatever the outside may be.
There's a parallel between books and bottles. The
binding, or wrapper, of a bottle is no guide to the quality
of the medicine the bottle contains. The title on the bottle
is no warrant for confidence in the contents. It all depends
on the author's name. Never mind who made the bottle.
Who made the medicine? That's the question.
Think of this when buying Sarsaparilla. It isn't the
binding of the bottle or the name of the medicine that
you 're to go by. That's only printer's ink and paper I The
question is, who made the medicine? What's the author's

The "Jewish I'ulput" print a sermon
recently delivered at Detroit by Rabbi
Louis (Irossman, II. I)., wherein he In
sists upon the vitality of the distinction
between "a beatitude, a philosophy, an
Idealism or an ecstatic pleasantry" and
"laws, fommrindiiients and ordi
nances." Religion," he says, "If Moses
would have known of the term, would
have been for hlrn another term for the
art of teaching. Religion ought to drill
rather than exact; to build up habits
rather than deter from vice. Religions
should be the most many-sided educa
tional Itilliiencpa In the world. Unless
they are that they forfeit every right
to be, except as a pastime for senti
mentalists ninl as exercises lu halls of
philosophy. Judaism Is never abstract;
lis doctrines are not transcendental; it
has no catechism. Hut It bus laws;
and In these It hna energized Itself."
Judaism Is righteousness In life; and to
attain this righteousness there must
be training, and latv and discipline are
the instruments. "Let the churches

ASSUMED NAME.
How a Hespectable Citizen I'nt Him
self Under the Hon.
A respectable citizen of a small Weal
Virginia town Is under suspicion and
his domestic relations are badly strain
ed. It all came about from n visit he
made to Washington a few days ago.
He had read nboiit confidence men
and was determined that he should not
fall Into their clutches. Hence, when
ho got off the train at the Halt I more and
Ohio station the countryman was not
greatly surprised when n man accosted
him with "Good morning, Mr. Smith."
"My name hain't Smith. It's Per
kins." Then the old man chuckled to him
self. "Now, there'll be another fellow
along and call me Perkins. They won't
find out my name is Hadley."
a the Capitol another man accosted
him. "Good morning, Mr. Hadley."
The countryman was amazed, but said,
"My name hain't Hadley; lt'a Perkins."
Then to himself he murmured, "Won
der how them fellers found out my
true name, but I won't have no truck
with 'em."
Hut the Individual at the Cnpllol was
not a confidence man, but a former
neighbor whom Hadley failed to recog
nize, and he went back to the little
West Virginia town nnd told that the
respected citizen was skylarking
around Washington under an assumed
name. When be returned be was In
formed by his wife that the story of his
misdeeds had preceded him nnd that
she wauled to know who the woman
una he canio to Washington to see. His
business partner suggested that when
he was ashamed of his name nnd want
ed to sail under n Horn do plume he hnd
belter go further away from home, and
so far Mr. Hadley has failed to find
any one who believes his story about
the affair, although it Is strictly true.
Owney, tlm I'oHtofflcn Dog.
(wiiey's pedigree Is not worth brag1

: s u mongrel, but he has signs of some
inner blood. Neither Is he a linndsoim;
dog, but ho hns excellent quallt'efl, nnd
Ik kindly and intelligent.
When Owney found himself nil tin
ciilled-for package, lie did not begin to
whine or bark or fear he was uuwel
.nunc, but sought to make himself agree
able and to win friends. Finding that
1,'nclo Sam wns willing to keep lilm In
comfortable quarter;, Owney gladly
arcopted the situation. And now, no
matter how far away ho may travel,
ho Is known as "Owney, the Albany
Postofllce Dog," nnd Is everywhere con
sidered as a popular member of the flo-pcsi;meut.
"How do you know w fieri Owirjr tin,
gone on a irlpV" I asked the man wl
especially look after Owuey's inter
esis.
"Why, when the cat wmin In the of.
fice, we know that Owney Is awfcy," In
replied. "And the dog Is away from
home so much, that the cat is seldom
obliged to move out."
'Tell me how lie logins a journey.

"Know? Of course he does. JU
knows a postal ear as well as any pos

and stays there until the last bag it

But moisten the bread with water, and see the result,
in a short time it is covered with mold. It is just so
with consumption. Its germs will not grow in the
lungs unless everything is suitable to them. Weak
ness, poor blood, loss of appetite, coughs and colds
often prepare the ground for the development of the
germs of consumption. To destroy germ -life the sys
