The Independent, Il weekly maya
zine published in New York, is pub
fishing a series Of articles concerning
the "Civil Code Of Hammurabi,"
which has recently been discovered
and deciphered. Hammurab was a
king Of Babylon about $3.50, b. c.,
nearly a Thousand years before the
time of Moses, and there seems to be
little doubt as to authorship lof code.
This being true the "COde of IIammu-
rabi" is the Oldest known. The articles
are very interesting, many of the laws
being given. A comparison OF these
with the biblical parallels ought to be
of great interest to the bible student.

A Thought on Reciprocity.

1t is custom Of all good local news
papers to advocate the patrOnizing OF
home industries. This is right.
Every live business firm helps to
make up the community, and adds
materially TO its progress. The mer-
chants ih your home town are entitl-
ed to your trade If they treat you
fairly and PhillipSburg merchants
will do that. 1t is true that one can
save a little money sometimes by
ordering from large mail order con-
ems, but they add nothing to the
progress of our community. They are
building up foreign business firms
and contributing to the support Of
other states. Now if the newspapers
are expected to aid in the support of
our home business enterprises, they
ought to reciprOCate and give their
printing and stationary orders to the
local papers. a newspaper man could
save five dollars or more by ordering a
suit from u wholesale house. We do
not do it. Yet we know of business
men who order envelopes and paper
from wholesale houses because they
can save fifty cents on an order for a
500 hundred lot. Remember that
the conscientious printer seeks to live
as do others of tie profits of a legit =
mate business.

A new cure for blood poisoning IS
said to have been discovered. The
new remedy is formalin and it has
been used with seeming success in
few cases of late. FOrmalin is a
powerful antiSeptic agent and ger
micide, but it is not very irritant to
living tissue. This furnishes the
ground for hope among medical
practitioners. 1t is applied by injec-
tion in a very dilute form.
