trying 10 decide tho questio, .e ~
whether valentine mea; Juice is a food
or medicine. Upon their decision VIII
rest the future OF the celebrated pro-
duct.
y the meat juice is a food. the con-
tents OF each bottle must appear on the
label. II IL IS a medicine. the formula
need not so appear.
Representative John Lamb had a long
conference with Secretary Wilson and
Dr. Wiley this afternoon Captain Lamb
contended that the meat juice is both
food and medicine, and Secretary Wilson
seemed 10 incline 10 this view. which
would admit OF the sale Of the prcpsra-
ton without the Publication of the for
mula on each bottle or other package
DIT Wiley appeared somewhat inclined
10 the opinion that the meat juice is
food. IN which case the formula would
have 20 be placed on the bottle. Dr. WILEY
apparently was inclined to take Captafn
Lambs view. however. after hearing the
latter discuss the subject
The decision will he rendered Tomorrow,
probably, when Captain Lamb sees tho

The counts demand for an "aIimentary

on the ground that the guilty party In a
divorce loses all the advantages accorded
either by marriage contract or the

the court refused TO allow not only the
counts original claim Of 50 90 per an

offered and which it now seems the count
claimed to have accepted October 25th.

PASSING OF coNFUCIAN1sM.

PASSING OF CONFUCIANISNf.
 Confucianism, like Buddhism, is dead in Japan, killed by the breath of the new learning, and one wonders what will be it's fate during the next thirty years in China, now that it Is no longer bolstered up by the compulsory study of the classics
 There are many who hold that the Japanese have no philosophical gifts though that remains to be seen. At any rate. there was a time when the Confucian philosophy, in it's dryest form, was supreme among the scholars of Japan as of China. Buddhism, too, has had its heyday in Japan, though now disestablishPd and declining. It was in the sixth and seventh centuries of our era that, Chinese civilization, along with Buddhism, was introduced into the island kingdom.
 The feudal system found in Confuo- ianism exactly what it wanted. When that system was finally consolidated by Tokngawa Ieyasu, who died in 1916, he looked around for some sanction for the order which he had established by force. This he found in the Com funcian classics, with their doctrine of loyalty to rulers. These classics up to that time had indeed been studied in Japan, but only by few. In fact they had never been printed. Ieyasu had them printed with diacritical marks for Japanese students. From that time until the revolution confucianism four ished. Temples to Confucius were err rooted in connection with the schools founded for the study of his works. Of course, it had its defects, just the same as in China. Prominent among these were the hazy religious sanctions and ideas which it contained. There was no certainty, in so much that some have called Confucius an agnostic. Then there was no word of the SUI preme value of human life as such, and hence no adequate conception of the worth and nature of woman. These last two ideas are the roots of much of what is best in our modern civilization. The Japanese showed some originality in that they laid the chief stress on loyalty and not on filial piety. as in China. The distinctively Japanese morality was derived not from Budd- hism, but from Confueialism, and 80 1t
