Beef for Hebrew Consumers.
There Is a Rtf-nt deal of meat killed hero
for tlio consumption of tho Jewish popu
lation, and tho method of killing is very

fastened around their heads, and the!
ooscs thrown up bo that their throats aro

This operation Is nlways performed by an
Jofficer of thy Jewish church, who alono
Uiandlcs tho meat and prepares it for the
market Uo must bo a skillful man, not

matter to hauulo tbeso big cattle and cut

mutilated beasts will not bo eaten by tho

After tho killing, tho knlfo Is cleaned
until it Is absolutely spotless, and It Is
then wrapped in eovcral layers of cloth
and put away where no Gentile hands
may touch It. All this killing and dress
lng is dono according to tho laws of the
Jowlsh church established and adhered to
Xrom tlmo Immemorial. Tho person who
iperforms tho olllco Is vested with tho au
thority of tho Jowlsh church, and it Is for
Jinn to sco that tho beast, In every part

X Strango niocniio on the l.ltlln Inland of
St. Kllilu Another Story.
Tew portions of tho habitablo earth
havo received moro attention during tho
past threo centuries than the littlo island
of St. Kilda. which lies off tho coast of
Scotland No poirpio aro so strongly at
t ached to their homo as tho inhabitants
of this lonely place. Benovnlcnt persons
In tii-eat Hritain havo repeatedly oilereu
to move them all to Austml!a or Lanaua,
and to provide for their wants till they
could get established. I hoy have, how.
over, always declined these propositions.
Tho climatoof tho Island Is so severe that
ttls scarcely endurable, tho sea about It Is
so tempestuous at most times that vessels
cannot approach It, while tho soil Is so
sterilo that It will prouueo iituo out

and Isolation. It Is also allirmed that
they suffer from tin) visits of strangers,
oven those who como on errands of mercy.
All writers on St. Hilda affirm that tho
arrival of a vessel Is Immediately followed
by a peculiar sort of liilliieiiza which ar
forts all tho people Rev. Aulay Mac
aitlay, great grandfather of tho distin
guished historian, wroto a work on St.
Kilda, in which ho speaks at length of
this strange disease. Martin, who wroto
au account of tho Island and Its inhabi
tants nearly two hundred years ago, also
refers to ft. In giving evidence before
tho crofter commission, tho minister of
tho island, who Is represented as a gen
tleman of great learning, enumerated tho
"Strancers' Cold" as among tho principal
ullllctlons of tho people, and ono for
which there was no relief
Dr. Samuel Johnson, who was much In-
tflPoDtn.! In tlm ill. . l.l.iti. tu .if iitt I. mil nt.fl

dispone of tho "Strangers' Cold" by means
of an argument. In an essay ho wroto
now can there bo a physical oliect witn
out a physical cause? Tho arrival of a
shipful of strangers would kill them, for
it ono straiurer trives them ono com, uvo
strangors must give them two colds, and
so on in proportion. llio lojric was ex
cellent, hut it did not prevent tho poor
pcoplo of bt. ivilda Iroin suilering lrom a
bovoro cold for eight or ten days after tho
arrival of everv vessel. A writer in a
recent number of Chambers' Journal de
clared that tho dlbeaso actually exists,
and that It Is folly to attempt to deny tho
fact, lie states that tliero Is a mass ot
evidence to establish tho occurrenco of
such a disease alter tho arrival of every
vessel that cannot bo disposed of, es
pecially when thero Is no contradictory
testimony.

the St. Kilda ease Is found In Tonga and

a small island on tho west coast of Africa,
that "it is a singular fact that any vessel
touching there from St. Helena Invariably
brings with It a diseaso resembling Inllu-

Impossible for tho inhabitants of an Island
