Living. Yet Dead.

In a German law journal may be
found a curious account of a woman
who. though actually living. is legally
dead. Some years < she disappeared
from her home. and after three years
had elapsed the court formally pro-
nounccd her lead and turned over her
property to her next of kin. Soon after
ward she returned TO her native place.
and as there was no question as to her
identity she naturally thought that she
would have no difficulty in recovering
her property. The court. however. nat
ly refused to comply with her request.
"You have been declared dead" it viz
tually said, and 1t is impossible for us
to regard you as living"
Thereupon the woman appealed TO a
higher court, but her labor was in vain.
for he verdict of the lower court was
upheld, and. moreover. an official no
ttce was issued to the effect that TIE
plaintiff, having formally been de
clared dead, could not now be restored
to life. as the law understands that
word and must remain dead until
doomsday.

Why ShouId We Work.

Work is activity in some phase OF
our life. Life is manifested in activi-
ty, and inactivity would be stagnation,
which would be fatal 10 life.
In the universe wherever there is life
there is activity. This is true in the
vegetable, the animal and the human
worlds. This activity Is IL necessity
which runs through all organic life,
The life hat is not crowned with en-
nobling work of some kind, either for
ones own livelihood or for the good of
others, is an empty life-an abnormal
life.
Work is natural. idleness unnatural.
Work builds up, and Inactivity tears
down. Idleness is a violation of our
being. Hence il is immoral.
There are manifold reasons why we
should work and no reason why we
should not. Those who are not Obliged
to labor for their daily bread should
choose work of some kind in obedience
to the universal law that we see run
ming all creation.
He who was of the opinion that 1.-THE
man who does not work should not
eat realized the demoralizing influence
of a life spent in characterization
