This is q striking illustration Of the code Of honor of profes
sional ethics the world over. 1t is wrong to decry a book in the
hands of q fellow dealer, but when once he has sold it and got the

1t Is much the same in all professions. Thomas De Quincy cites
IN instance OF Q physician in London who stated that professional
ethics would require him to let . patient die rather than to call
IN . quack to help cure him. And lawyers and theologians are not
much better. In fact, . happy delicacy Of conventional morals OK.
