According to Rupert Hughes. writ

generalizing from single sentences Is
far too general and influential. One
would think. from some Of the gen
civilizations, he says. that the monop-
olists OF money, for example, had
also monopolized vickedness. yet
the news Of the day will tell OF
preachers caught in plagiarism or
adultery. OF druggists selling poisoned
soda water, OF bakers vending unclean
bread. of theological students cheat.

RESENTED EVEN WISE ADVICE.
Legend illustrating Superstition Of
Russian Peasant.

An almost superstitious value is at.
tached to the possession OF land by
the poor Russian peasant. There Is
parallel In the old eastern story Of
Nasr Eddin Hodga. He met peas
ant one day with donkey, over
whose back hung two sacks. one filled
with stones, the other with wheat,
the stones having been added to bal.
ance the wheat. why not divide the
wheat into two parts instead?' Sug-
gested Nasr Eddin Hodga. Delighted
with the idea, the peasant did as he
was advised, and hung the two sacks
Of wheat over the donkey's back.
"And where are your lands, O wise
Stranger" he asked hunbly. II have
no lands" answered the other. Your
estates, then, and your palaces?' In
quired the peasant. Il have nome"
said the other. Then your houses.
your gardens. your orchards?" persist
ed the man, amazed. what" cried
the outraged peasant. do you, who
have no lands and no posses sions,
presume to give advice to me?" and
he unioaded the donkey. rearranged
the wheat and tones as tefore. and
proceeded on his way.
