A Broken Patient.

profits should reach 100000 year.
Talking the other day about total

four miles to a patients house. On
his arrival the patient said: Doctor,

DR.. Chester examined the man,
felt his pulse, listened to his heart.
Then he said:
"Have you made your will ?"
The mans face fell and be turned
pale. "Why, no, doctor. At my
age-there seemed time enough yet
oh, doc, it amt true, is it that"
"Who is your lawyer Dr.
Chester interrupted.
"Higginbotham. "
"Then you had better send for
him at once" said DR.. Chester, curt

"Ths Rev. Kellogg NJ. Brown" the
patient answered ID low, tremulous

The patient began to blubber sof :

DR.. Chester looked at him hard

Are You Worth Itr

A farmer boy nsm,d Steve went
away from home to the city and in
the course Of years became very
successful railroad man. One warm
summer day he found himself at home
on little vacation. He was seated
under the old apple ire with half of
a r., hearted watermelon in his lar.
His father, busy with the other half,
paused now and then to ask Steve
about his new job and what he paid
for his fine new clothes Presently
he wanted to know what they call d
boy on the ros,d-conductor, brake
man, or what.
They call me the general freight
agent, father, said Steve.
"That'sa mighty big name. Steve.
Eyes, father, it's rather big Job,
too. for me.
But YOU don't DO it all, Steve.
You must have hands to help you
load and unload?'
"Oh, yes, have lots Of help"
And does the compa ~ pay them
ALP"
YES"
How much DO they pay you, Steve
80 day ?"
Steve almost strsngled on piece
of melon. and the old gentleman saw
that he bad guessed too low.
Three ?" he ventured.
"More than that, father
You don't mean to say that they
pay you as much as fve?'
"Yee, father, more than twenty
five.
The old man let his watermelon
fall between his knees, stared at the
boy and whistled Then serious
look came in the old mans face, and
then leaning forward he asked ear.
neslly,"Say, Steve, are you worth it 2
Every man should ask himself The
serious question concerning every
success that comes to him in life,
whether he is giving value received
to the world in services for the sue
cess it confers upon him.

THE LAW and
The SALOON.
A New Phase of the Liquor License
Question Based on the Ethics
of Law.

In 'sThe World Today for April,
Judge 5. r. Artman, a Circuit Judge in
Indiana, has decided that the legisla-
ture has no legal right to license the
sale Of Intoxicating liquors.
He holds that the licensing Of a saloon
by a state is an endorsement OF such an
evil that the license is unconstitutional:
He cites cases of the court Of last re-
sort of the different states and Of the
Supreme court of h United States,
which he claimed upheld his position,
especially a decision of the Supreme
court OF Indiana, which declared that
a law permitting prize-ighting was un-
constitutional because "il was opposed
to the spirit of the constitution
By the same reasoning he held that
the states had no right to license the
evil of conducting saloons. The appll-
cant for license in this case did not APP
peal, so a direct decision on the case
could not be had from the court of last
resort; but the friends of prohibition
are in hopes OF having the same point
raised in other cases which will be tax
en- up for final decision.
This is an entirely new point" as
the lawyers say;but it is quite in keep
ing with the fundamental principles OF
ethics upon which the right to enact
and enforce laws is based.
We shall all watch the elimination
of his issue with intense interest. In
the meantime, all honor to Judge Art
man.
