ALL MADE EQUAL BY DEATH
No Democracy EveE Conceived Is al
All Comparable to That of
the Tomb.

In the democracy Of the dead all men
at last are equal. There Is neither
rank nor station nor prerogative in the
republic of the grave. At this fatal
threshold the philosopher ceases to be
wise, and the song of the poet IS ST.
lent. Dives relinquiSheS his millions
and Lazarus his rags. The poor man
is as rich as the richest, and the rich
man is as poor as the pauper. The
creditor loses his uSury and the debtor
is acquitted of his obligation. There
the proud man surrenders his digni-
ties, the politician his honors, the
wording his pleasures; the invalid
needs no physician, and the laborer
rests from unrequited toll.
Here, at last, is natures final de-
cree in equity. The wrongs of time
are redressed Injustice is expiated,
the irony of fate is refuted: the I'M
equal distribution Of wealth. honor, ca
pacity, pleasure and opportunity which
makes life such n cruel and inexplic-
| able tragedy, ceases in the realm of
/ death. The strongest there has no sU-
/ premacy, and the weakest needs no
! defense. The mightieSt captain sue.
! cumbS to that invincible adversary
! who disarms alike the victor and the
yanqulshed.-JOhnJ ]. ingalls,.

Sprouts After 1000 Years.

At the Zensui Temple, Iwane village,
Koga-gun, Shiga Prefecture a very an
cient wooden idol of Vaisravana was
opened four years ago and some rice
that had reposed therein fully ten CEN
turtles was removed and planted. The
seeds terminated and the rice grown
therefrom appears to be similar in all
respects TO that of the present day.
The yield was large and the crop for
next year from this seed is expected
to be excellent.
Vaisravana is the God of Treasure.
When the statue was repaired a bag OF
coarse flaXen textile was exhumed con-
tanning rice seeds, with piece of pa
per bearing the following inscription,
in Chinese: This image has been en-
grayed for the peace of the world. If
/ any one of later generations opens it,
he should put in new seeds" The
Tokyo Academy of Fine Art pro-
| nounces the image and its contents Of
great antiquity-at least loco years

A Modern Danger.

We are risking all now to make the
world safe for democracy. Yet history
tells us that there is no tyranny so hard
to bear as the tyranny of the majority
when it ceases to act intelligcntIE. The
torch of democracy can scorch as well az
ilumine 1t can light the way with
equal certainty to slavery or liberty,
Majolities Of men, like individuals, are
prone to take the easier, if not the east
CT way. To avoid the agonies consequent
upon serious INJURY the young man takes
his first morphine tablet he doctor
orders It and the result Is miraculous. As
the young man slowly RECEIVERS he finds
it easier to continue to take morphine than
t. stop, and III a few years the very thing
hat saved his lie kills lin. Shall We
