the law is regarded, is shown by

the number and worth of the acces-
sories used, which include a beauti-
ful Ark as a receptacle, with a hand-
tritely embroidered
"paroket" or
curtain before it. The scroll itself is
g,reled with a strip of silk, robed in
a Mantle of the Law, and laid on a
"niappall" or desk-cover when placed
in the alumnae. for reading. The
two rollers are of hard wood, with
Hat round tops and bottoms to sup-
port and protect the edges of the
parchment when rolled up. The pro•
"coding handles of the rollers on both
sides, and especially the upper ones,
are usually of ivory. The gold and
silver ornaments belonging to the
scroll are known as the sacred vessels
and somewhat resemble the orna-
ments of the high priest. The prin-
cipal ornament is the Crown of the
Law. which is made to fit over the
motor ends of the rollers when the
scroll is closed. Some scrolls have
two crowns. one for each upper end.
Suspended by a chain from the top
of the rollers is the breastplate, to
which, as in the case of the crowns,
little hells are attached. Lions, eagles.
flags and the Mogen David, either
chased, embossed or painted are the
principal decorations. For domestic
use or travel the scroll is placed in
a case. In the East this is almost
invariably of costly wood, sometimes
