More than 3,500 Jewish refugees from Antwerp, who fled Belgium when the war broke out, are living in three unique communities estab- lished for them by the British Gov- ernment in London. In these places they enjoy ample comfort, maintain their family ties, and are enabled to get work, waiting for the time when the war will end and they may re- turn home. The Government, at the instance of the Jewish community of Lon- don, of which the wealthy Leopold de Rothschild is the head, provided the three immense homes for them, where they have been taught Eng- lish. The communities are divided among what is now called the Po- land Street Refuge, near Oxford Cir- cus; Lindrick House, in North Lon- don, and a number of flat houses in Whltechapol. In the Poland Street Refuge Ernst Sohiff, a nephew oj Jacob Schiff, the New York banker, is the head. The Poland Street Refuge shelters 1,200 refugees. Many aged couples are housed there, and there are some 750 children in it. The youns; er people are able to earn from $8 to $15 ;i week. Nearly all of the Antwerp refu- gees were diamond cutters, and to find jobs for thai fhurucLer of arti- san in London during war time was impossible. The diamond-cuttin^; industry does not flourish so much in London now as before the war. To- day they are engaged in makin& boots, clothes, antl in other kinds yt work. The average cost to house, feed, and clothe each one of the 3.500 refugees per week is $2.50. Those who work pay for their board, and, if they are able, ior their clothes.- Whatever dehciency there is the British Government defrays. In all three communities the chil- dren are given schooling facilities. Their progress in learning Lnglish is remarkable. Milk depots for the youngsters, witti sterilizing appar atus, have been installed at each re- fuge. A maternity centre has been established at Lindrick House. Hos- pital wards, supervised by physiciao refuse-es from Antwerp, are main- tained at Poland Street.

Some of them fought against liritain in the Boer War, and among them there are several Americano who had made their homes in the African mining fields. One of the most thrilling exploits of the South Africans was the recent act of a youug subaltern. During a night operation he became separated from his company and found himself inside the German lines. After a time he picked up six more men of his Tlieir Chee«c, Made at Oka, is Inter* nationally Famous. The Trappist Monastery at Oka, Quebec, destroyed by fire recently, has had a singrularly disastrous ex- perience, this being the fourth flre from which it has suffered since the inception of this branch of the ord«C back in the forties. The Oka Trap- pists were located at La Trappe, s pretty village situated several miles inland from Oka, which is a st»ppin|P: place for the boats plying the Ottawa River. The one hundred Trappista who comprise both fully professed? priests and lay brothers conduct sv 'farm of several thousand acres and^ I the buildini^s now said to tie con- jpletely in ruins represented th» : labors of their own hands, supple- [ mented by the work of those whout I the monks hire from the outside, for fully seventy men and boys are give© constant employment in summer. The cheese, which is their principal' product, is sold in immense quanti- ties thi oughout Canada and the United States. The group of buildings comprise & large guest house, which is usuall]^ full during the summer season, a h.aidsome chapel about sixty feet 19. width and fully two hundred fe«f deep; the living quarters of tbtf monks, which include a valuable liH- rary, refectory, rest rooms, and thd common room; large kitchens and l^t the top many cells. The quarters re- served for guests w^ere steam heated and lighted by electricity and consid- ering the great care constantly exer- cised by those about the monastery in safeguarding against lire it se«.>ms not unlikely that it ra.iy have been caused by some defect in the wiring. I All the buildings mentioned were connected and were built of stone. I In the chapel were double tiers of ' place were l\(o immense volumes, I at their religious oUices and at every ' place \vh'»re two immense volumes. j each page highly illuminated, and ! bound in heavy wood and brass. The i books wore very valuable and were I made by artisans in ISelaiuin many ' years ago. Around tlia- hi^^h altar j were several other altars in alcoves, which were used for low iaas.';cs and ' in the sacristy were many holy ves- , sels. especially chalices and patens j of solid gold. On..^ chalice u.srd on ' festival occasions was studded with many precious stones and was sai.l ti» be worth $10,000. Vestments, too,, were of a costly character. I'nless some of the outbuildirigs were destroyed there should b.? no in- terference with the making of cheese, us the industry is carried oa in a building some distance away, and as are the several other industries in- cluding bvitter making. Poultry rais- ing is conducted in a valley some dis- tance away from the main buildings. The last lire which destroyed the main buildin.u was in 1902. Only last spring a large barn where were hous- ed m;iny horses and cows and hun- dreds of tons of hay was destroyed, entailing a loss of $50,000. All last summer the monks were busily en- gaged in rebuilding these uf solid concrete and steel.

Look through a window at a house across the street with one eye closed, aud then with the other eye closed. The bars of the window frame will cut across the opposite house in different places. The two lields seen with the eyes .separately, although in the main alike, differ. When you look at the house with both eyes open the two ' fields -seen by the two eyes are com- I biued, and the bouse across the street assumes depth and relief. Although we see a house with each eye, we see only our house with tioth eyes. This makes the stereoscope possible- an instrument so desijiivnl that the two eyes are made to coii- vtirge on a single point and yet lo see two different iiictures. It these two pictures represent a chair as it would app\u- to the ri.itht aud left eyes respectively, they are perceived »s one solid object. Tit Hits.
