Exclusive Furnishings

It is of such things that interesting homes are
made.

An extraordinary chair, an uncommon sofa, a re-
markable table, an unusual lamp or shade, rare draperies,
infrequent upholstering materials, a peculiarly beautiful
breakfast room, dining room or bedroom set, unusual
rugs, unique objects of decorative art, etc.—Dean exclu-

STEPHEN S. WISE COMES
FROM FAMILY OF RABBIS

The Jewish Encyclopedia makes
Dr. Wise a good deal older than 50,
assigning the date of his birth to
March 17, 1812. This is surely an er-
ror ,unlecn it he that the Rabbi carries
his years with preternatural youth.
He comes from a family of Rabbis.
His grandfather was Chief Rabbi Jos-
eph Hirsch Weiss, and his father, who,
arriving in America from Ilungary in
1874, adopted the name of Wise, was
a protagonist of orthodoxy. It is in-
teresting to know that Rabbi Wise's
eldest son also is destined for the pul-
pit, thus maintaining the tradition to
the fourth generation. The Rabbi is
one of the few "Reform" Rabbis who
espoused the cause of Zionism while
it was even yet unfashionable, and ral-
lied in support of it to the side of
Herat who, finding his most strenuous
opponents among the very class of
Rabbis to which Wise belonged, was
wont to refer to him as the brand
plucked from the burning.

The famous actor and theatrical

manager, Ludwig Barnay, recently
died at Berlin at the age of 82. A na-
tive of Hungary, Barnay achieved
fame as an actor in Germany and was
for many years connected with the
Stadt Theater at Hamburg. Ile visited
England and America and met with
great success. One of hie most famous
roles was that of Uriel Acosta.

PLAYS IN SOUTH AFRICAN FILM
Dore Davidson, a noted Jewish ac-
tor who appeared to marked advan-
tage in the American film production
of Humoresque, the story by Fanny
Hurst, is the leading figure in a photo
play entitled "None So Blind," which
is being shown in South Africa. The
film is described as dealing with so-
cial problem. as they affect the Jew-
ish people.

All crankshaft and con-
necting rod bearings are extremely large. That
adds materially to their endurance. The camshaft
is oversize. That prevents distortion or deflection
from cam action. Axle housings are of malleable
iron rather than pressed steel. This insures per-
manency of mesh, exact alignment of gears, and
'enhances operative quietness. These and count-
less other mechanical features will sell you solidly
on this Nash Four Touring Car.
