The Dead Sea, Israeli lake
noted in current headlines be-
• cause of the ancient scolls dis-
covered nearby, is a body of
water on the Israel-Jordan
border. The Dead Sea is 47
miles in length and 10 miles
wide.
I Its name derives from the
1 fact that no living creature can
exist in it due to its large
concentration of salt. In He-
I brew its name is "Yam Hame-
lech," the 'Salt Sea."
Bathers cannot drown in the
Dead Sea, since they easily
can float on its waters. It is
rich in many valuable minerals,
particularly potash.
Since its surface level lies
about 1,300 feet below that of
the Mediterranean, it is the
lowest body of water on the
earth.

The greatest magician in the
world during the 18th century
was a Jew who learned many
fascinating arts of magic by im-
mersing himself in the study
of the Cabbalists and other
books of Jewish mysticism.
He was Jacob Meyer - Phila-
delphia, son of one of the first
Jewish families who settled in
Philadelphia and Provincial
Pennsylvania in 1726. All were
poor people, fleeing Russian
persecution in Galicia.
His family surname was ac-
tually Meyer, but Jacob adopted
the name Philadelphia after his
native town. He also went by
the name of Philadelphus Phil-
adelphia.
Word of his experiments won
him early fame, and he was
summoned to the court of the
Duke of Cumberland, where he
spent several years winning
fame and fortune in the triple
role of astrologer, alchemist and
conjuror. -
After the Duke's death, he
lectured before learned bodies,
attracted world-wide attention
and appeared before Catherine
II of Russia, King Frederick and
Frederick the Great of Russia. •
In 1777, scheduled to lecture
at - the famous _ University of
Goettingham, he refused to
appear after the town had been
placarded with 'anti-Semitic
posters.
The following year, while in
Nuremberg, a local artist,- C. W.
Bock, engraved his portrait
which now hangs in the Museum
of the Pennsylvania Historical
Society. At the bottom is the
inscription "In raris rarissi-
mus," indicating he was one of
0 the great men of his time.
Actually, by today's stand-
ards, Philadelphia's magic is
obsolete. His fame stemmed
more from his fascinating per-
sonality and mysticism than
from his simple magic.
