such lofty ethics which are so conspicu-
GUS in the works of other distinguished
lawgivers-ethics which even in this
age command the attention of the
world. Is it any wonder that students
of history are skeptical as to whether
such man as Lycurgus ever existed
outside the realms of mythology
1 have stated that Sparta established
her supremacy through. the agency of
the system which Lycurgus foisted up
on the state. Theoretically this may be
true; but believe Sparta could have
forged to the front without Lycurgus'
system. At best there was little to
commend itself in his code. Perhaps
that is why it disappeared so utterly
after short, tumultuous period. S.

thing would drive one mad who had
had taste of the strenuous life. The
struggle for-an existence is what gives
joy to life, the work one finds to do
and the doing of it makes life glad.
Long may that peaceful Iowa colony
endure and prosper, for the Amanites
show us that there is better plan to live
upon than the old struggle of the world
at large. Perhaps some day the world
will gain wisdom from its humble ex-

The Amanites.
Paper Read Before tnecnahtouqaa Circle.

~ EVERAL papers have been read
within the last quarter on ques-
y tions pertaining to the social
system of the republic. No sug
gestion was offered that would lead one
to believe that the present peculiarities
of American society are not ideal and
necessary. No other mode or method
of living was described to show that
people can and do live happily other
wise than upon the American plan.
There is a colony of people in Iowa
who live happily according to their
own ideals. Their mode Of living is
somewhat different from the battle
against fate most Americans think nee
essary to an ideal existence. This col
ony consists of seven small villages
and many acres Of rich farming land.
The people call themselves Amanites
and are perhaps the most contented
people in the whole world. They are
prosperous, sober and intelligent; and
sltho they have existed as a colony for
over half century not one of them
has ever been convicted of a crime.
There are no paupers, insane, weak
minded or drunkards among them.
These facts are not CLEANED from
books or hearsay. lived with and
worked for these people some years ago
and make this statement from knowl-
edge obtained during my stay in their
colony. The Amanites are not prud-
ish, they are honest, generous and pa
triotic. They are sincerely religious,
yet you cannot find fanatic among
them. They worship their God in their
own manner and do not scoff at men
who differ with them in religion. They
have no churches or gilded palaces
wherein to chant hypocrisy and display
fine apparel. Their houses of worship
are plain buildings without spire OF
ornament, and religion to them is q
living truth, not a shallow belief.
The colony is run upon the co-opera-
tive plan; every member has q share in
the enterprise and all unite in working
for the welfare Of the whole communi.
ty. They have large wooden mill, al.
so -four mill, and the products Of
these mills are always in demand BY
the outside world because purchaser
is sure of getting his moneys worth.
These people have lived happily anc
have been prosperous for over half
century, The world outside this con
tented community has found itimpera
tive to increase the size of its prisons
insane asylums, poorhouses and hospi
tails. This is q fact that cannot be ex
