HOW a JEWESS SAVED HER LIFE There is a very pretty story told how a lovely Jewess in a Russian town saved her property and her life during the recent attacks upon the Jews. A great hulking ruffian entered her shop and bought a loaf of bread. After swallowing a couple of mouthfuls, he threw himself on the ground outside the shop door and began to howl piteously that he was poisonedj— the Jews had poisoned him. Of course an infuriated crowd instantly assembled, and it would have fared ill with our Jewess if she had not dashed out of the shop and snatching the bread from the imposter’s hand, began to eat in sight of them all. The crowd stopped, thunderstruck. A broad grin dawned on every countenance. One of them called out to the Jewess: “ Alosho, lend me your knout; will you ?” Then the impostor started to his feet and scudded off, pursued by a mischievous but no longer sanguinary crowd.
