These and many other interesting
facts going to show that life among
the ancients was not so different
from that of today were brought out
by Prof. Camden NJ. Cobern. explorer
and archaeoligist, who has Just re-
turned from trip to Palestine.
Professor Coburn in a series of
lectures upon his archaeological dis
coveries pointed out that the Jews
had three systems of shorthand re-
porting in the first century and that
in every Jewish court a shorthand
reporter or clerk sat on each side of
the judge. Many of the Roman aris-
tocrats took "stenographers" with
them upon their travels.
Some of the other advantages en-
joyed by the ancients according to
Professor Cobern follow:
In st. Paul's time there were sew
enty labor unions in Rome; hence a
struggle between capital and labor
must have been waged even then.
There were several great monop-
olies in the first century, the great
est of all being the oil business, al
though no mention of Rockefeller
appears on the papyrus examined by
the American scholar. The trust"
had not cornered kerosene, which
was unknown at that period, but
dealt in olive oil. There also were
monopolies in eggs, perfumes and
bricks.

decorations for his house.
Another plutocrat spent $4,000
900 in one year. Even Nero was no
SLOUGH when it came to burning
money" On one occasion he spent
$4,000 for roses on his banquet
tables. The roses were brought from
Egypt.

HAND OF LABOR
(Lilburn H. Townsend.)

Hand Of labor, hand of might,
Be thou strong in things of right, Il
Master thou of crafts untold,
Driving them in heat and cold:
Working high and working low,
That the world may brighter grow;
Press, the loom, and traffic great,
Know the drive behind thy weight
Hand of labor, rude and fine,
Things of earth are mostly thine.
Mines of gold and fields Of wheat,
Harbors deep where pennants greet
Ships of war, canals and locks,
Roads of steel and bridges, docks,
Strain thy sinews day and night,
Be thou strong in things Of right.
Mills and shops in clang and roar,
Foundry fires and molten ore;
Sullen mines and heaVing seas, z
Lands of rock and timber trees;
Cotton fields as white as snow,
FORCES black mid flames aglow,
Strain thy sinews day and night,
Be thou strong in things of right.
Hand of labor, great thou art:
BE thou fair, and bear thy part
Like big souls, sincere, intense;
stoop not low to base offense,
Nor, in heat, forget that men,
Large and small, all kind and ken, Z
Have their place and must remain
Meath the sway of guiding brain.
