SPIRITUAL TAXATION.

Spiritual Taxation" was the subject Of
the lecture delivered by Rabbi Sonuen-
schein before tue members of the Auxil-
larry Association of the Congregation
Ohabai Shalome and their friends last
evening
Taxation" he said. sis we'll understood
by all, but spiritual taxation is, perhaps,
an unknown quantity to many if not all Of
you.
The spiritual welfare of an individual
or a community depends on certain
wealth Of spiritual possessions, and these
spiritual possessions are Of a threefoId ma
tuTe-mOral, mental and sentimental The
moral is not only To know the Golden
Rule, but TO practice it: not only to know
the true creed, but TO live it. The mental is
to know what Is true and what is false: to
distinguish between what IS supernatural
and what is reality. and between that
which is hearsay and that which has been
proven. The sen timen tai is the law of the
beautiful, the harmonious. the sweet and
pleasing-the esthetic law which appeals
to our taste. our Imagination and our feel
iugs. The possession of these is spiritual
wealth, but as communities and lDdivld-
uals have to give of their material wealth
a portion in the form of taxes so do they
have 10 give a part of this wealth uD for
the sake OF those around them, and this is
spiritual taxation"
Illustrations of the preceding points
then followed, what is known as "white
lies" being explained TO be IN many cases
spiritual tax which man of undOubted
honor and probty is sometimes forced 10
pay for the sake Of society or Of some in
dlyldual for whose welfare he is respon-
sihle.
In conclusion the rabbi urged his hearers
to bring 10 the altar Il sacrifice of noble
impulses and true righteousness which
WOULD rebound TO the credit and insure
the spiritual prosperity OF the whole con-

prosecutions IL the recent investiga-
ton Of Prof. Ely by the regents of
the University Of Wisconsin has

which places its author in an alto

dent merely goes to show that there
is altogether too much latent jeal-
onsy, it not active hostility, between
the faculties OF the different Ameri.
