THE HIGHER LAW.

The old adage says
self preservation is the first law Of
nature"
But that is untrue
A bowling blizzard swept the prai-
ries OF the northwest the other day. It
was the sort that makes you lose your
way and travel in circles. perhaps in
sight of your home.
Two .Yankton Indian women, each
with baby on her back. we're caught
in the storm far from any human hsb-
itation.
What did they dor
They took Off the blankets that kept
them from freezing. wrapped the
papooses snugly inside them. crooned
the babes to sleep, and then
Lay themselves down and deIiber-
ately froze to death.
The babes were found. alive and
well.
No. The sordid law Of self preserva-
ton is not the FIRST law Of nature
There is a higher law. and II reigns
even In the savage breast
II is the law OF love.
In Chicago recently a business man
saw a little child toddle In front of an
engine. 1t was not his child. he saw
and knew that II he saved the child be
must give up his own life.
He did not hesitate.
He leaped after the child and fune
it to one side of the track. The engine
passed over him and mangled his body
into a shapeless mass.
Do you want more such stories OF tn,
heroic sort where men and womer
obey the higher law7
Read the daily newspapers.
Self preservation is only one of th'
laws of nature. Men and women low,
their lives. but under the pressure o.
the higher law will-instantly or delib
erately. as the case may betting thei

Man is more than animal.
He is the offspring Of God.
And he partakes OF the divine na
ture He betrays his kinship.

sence of love- so man. put to the su
preme test Of a choice between sell
