CODE OF LEGAL ETHICS.

The American Bar Association at
its meeting this week at Seattle ad-
opted code OF legal ethics, a state
ment Of broad principles OF profess
siOnal conduct, taking long step
In the advancement Of that profess
sion to a position OF It's true light
before the public. Legal ethics Is
not a new thing and the code as ad-
opted by the association is simply
. concrete statement Of those prin-
ciples of conduct that honorable
men learned in the law. for time I'm
memorable have practiced and OBJ
served
But heretofore they have been the
unwritten law OF the profession,
guiding those who really needed no
guiding. but now that they are made
concrete and specific an authorita-
tive statement Of q moral code en-
mating from the highest body Of the
1eagal world will lay down rule
1cr the guidance Of all who aspire
In m honorable position in the pro-
session and enable the laymen to
know and appreciate the highest
Dolitical ethics.
The merits OF the movement are
AOWhere better set forth than in the
preamble Of the Anal report of the
committee. which Is as follows:
In America. where the stability
OF courts and OF all departments of
government rests upon the approval
OF the people, 1t Is peculiarly essen
S1al that the system for establishing
and dispensing justice be developed
70 . high point of efficiency and so
maintained that the public shall
have absolute confidence in the in
feGrity and impartiality OF its ad.
ministration. The future of the Re-
Dubifc, to great extent. depends
upon our maintainance Of Justice
1ure and unsullied. II cannot be So
maintained unless the conduct and
the motives OF the members OF our
profession are such as to merit the
approval of all just men.

THE HOT WEATHER FACE.
BY EDWIN A. NYE.


THE HOT WEATHER FACE.
Yes. the weather Is warm.
Read the fact, writ large. on the hot
weather faces about you.
See the scowls?
Look ut the faces,
Beads Of Precipitation are on them,
Tho faces tell story Of sticky clothes
and burning feet. The sir h murky,
and the faces frown. Brows are cor
rugated. Mouths droop at the edges
Eyes are sullenly glazed. Gestures Of
dissent and protest. Frowns. Scowls
Look at the faces.
These are the faces you frequently
see. But they are distorted. They re-
pei you. You dare scarcely smile into
them, though ever 30 feebly.
And 80. though you may try to look
pleasant. with the angry. fussy bunch
Of humans about you, before you are
aware. so much are we all Of kin, yolr
own temperature goes up a notch or
two.
But wait.
There's face that is different. II
Ia the face OF a womnn-a rare woman
She is hot. like you. like the Others,
Undeniably her face Is somewhat red
But her brow IL placid Her eyes have
laugh In them. And her face Is smil-
ing! 1t Is the smile that will not come
OF. What a relief to look at the pleas
ant Face and note the cheerful manner.
You forget your troubles. and your
temperature drops just little.
What handsome face. And how
ugly the faces OF the others by com
parison. The other women are better
dressed than she, some Of them, but
They spoil all their beauty by the in
sistent crouch they carry. Aud the
more grouchy the hotter they become
and the uglier.
There's another face-a mans face,
Good humor radiates from every
vantage point. Jollity Ia bodied forth
from scalp lock to double chin. He
perspires, but smiles. He mops his
face. but his eyes are saying. ITS al
ways warm In summer" He appears
to be little cooler than the others.
He really Is cooler.
How Is that?
Why. there's physical heat and men,
tai heat. That is to say. you are
warm. You say to yourself, I'm
hot You go on believing you are hot
and saying. MY, but it's hot" The
result is-and this Is entirely scientific
you pile mental heat on the top of
physical heat. You are hot in body.
You also get hot In mind
the best way to save yourself the
h"at IS To forget 1t. Smile and cool of.
And whatever you ae If you must
