The history of civilization has been
the history of masters and slaves, of
caste, of contempt for all labor and for
useful arts. No wonder that Plato held
that the useful arts were degrading,
for they brought one into the compan-
ionship of slaves, for even in Athens
every freeman lived In luxury on the
labor of several slaves.
The technical professions are all less

HEROISM

The following Il from the Banner of

An interesting article clipped from
THE PRISON MIRROR, appears on our
front page under the above caption.
The conduct of that mother merits the
highest praise from intelligent people.
1t shows clearly the lengths to which
true mother-love will 60 in its effort to
shield and protect its offspring. For
years this woman and her children are
condemned to terrible living death,
through the effects of a disease for
which they are not responsible. The
causes of their great sorrow were no
doubt hereditery, and three in nocent
beings must suffer the consequences of
the wrong doing of their ancestors, of
whom perhaps they never heard. This
is about as near 7scarious suffering as
mortals can come in earth life, and
proves that individuals can never live
for self alone, nor bear in full the con-
sequences of their own acts.
Mortals are bound together by cords
that reach from eternity to eternity.
Their secret thoughts often take out
ward expression in the monstrosities
wearing the semblance of human form
that frequently shock society. Physic-
al diseases are transmitted from gen.
GRAFTON to generation, and vast
amount of suffering entailed upon the
race. We do not hesitate, to applaud
the courage of the Indiana mother,
who goes to ce'tain death for loves
sweet sake. She deserves great praise
for her noble, unselfish act. Will we
applaud that man or that woman who
has the courage to II mankind the
cause of vicarious mental and physical
suffering and is able to demonstrate
the fact that the same can be obviatedP
Ostracism and persecution will be the

The funeral was set for the day fol-

were all aware of what caused "Wrink-

hours he showed signs of life and
thenceforth rapidly recovered and told
the following tale: "Having often OBJ

Moore I conceived the idea of being
able to join the boys in their sprees
without having to suffer the pains and
sickness resulting from such, and pro-
ceeded to carry that idea into effect.
Being fairly we'll off in this worlds
goods, it was an easy matter to make
terms with Moore who was penniless.
To furnish him with the wherewithall
to indulge his appetite on condition
that he transfer to Wrinkles by the
aid of his hypnotic powers, all the SEN
sations resultant of his dissipations-
but an unlocked for result terminated
this most unique compact. Moore
while on prolonged jag was attacked
with Jim jams and gave up the ghost,
and either forgetting or being unable
to sever connection with Wrinkles he
to all appearance followed suit, and
has since resolved not to tinker with
