Ancient Ethics.
fB? --j 'v ?
Some 2,000 years before the
Christian era, or, to bring it
' - atronger to our minds,. 4,000
5 - years ago Hammurabi wrote a
code of moral laws, upon this
code the laws or decalogue, of the
Hebrews is based. When we
. - read the following code the ques
tion arises: Have we of the
twentieth century anything in
law-making and justice over the
people who lived 4,000 years ago?
Listen to the law:
1 Thou shalt not spread abroad
a false report.
1 Do not enter into conspiracy
with a wicked man to be an up-
righteous witness.
3 Thou shalt not follow the
majority in doing what is wrong.
4 Thou shalt not bear testimo
ny in a case so as to pervert jus-
. tice.
5 Thou shalt not show partial
ity to a poor man in his case.
4
- , 6 Thou shalt riot prevent jus
" tice being done to the poor in
his cause.
7 Keep aloof from every false
- matter.
8 Do not condemn the inno
cent nor him who has a just
cause.
9 Do not vindicate the wicked.
10 Thou shalt take no bribe,
for a bribe blindeth the eyes of
those who see and perverteth the
cause of the righteous. Mason

Rheumatic Pain Stopped.

Rheumatism quickly yield to Sloan's
Liniment. It stimulates circulation
to the painful part. Just apply as di

a short time the pain gives way to a

A nation is madejgreat, not by

America was agreat land when
Columbus discovered it; Amer

in liberty and dedicated to the
proposition that all men are cre

they fought the greatest of ex
isting world empires that they
might realize this vision. A
third of a century later, without
a navy they fought the greatest
navy in the world that they
might win for their Nation the
freedom of the seas. Half a cen
tury later they fought through
an unparalleled Civil War that
they might establish for all time
on this continent the inalienable
right of life, liberty and the pur
suit of happiness. A third
of a century later thsy fought
to emancipate an oppressed
neighbor, and, victory won, gave

The Living Wage.
It has been said that certain
well to do land owners in this
country pay the men who work
for them on the larm such a
small wages that the man of a
family can hardly buy the nec
essaries of life and as a conse
quence the poor man, his wife
and children enjoy few of the
comforts of life and are often
the victims of diseases brought
on by exposure and the lack of
sufficient substantial food and
proper medicines when needed.
We have in mind no specific
case but it is a matter worth
considering; for besides the fact
that the laborer is worthy of his
hire it is bad business
To thus treat human, beings.
The Golden Rule should be ap
plied. A man who would con
demn a corporation for under
paying overworked shop girls
should not assume a holier than
thau attitude while doing the
same thing in another way.
Live and let live is a good motto.
Every man who does honest
work is entitled to a living wage.
