PERIOD OF FORTY
DAYS HAS POINT
IN HOLY WRITING

In the New Testament the miracu-
lous Today guarantees of Moses and
Elijah r repeated in the fast of the
Savior, and this still survives In the
40-day period of Lent. ST. Louis es-
tabllshed In France a period of 10
days during which no man could
ayenge an injury. Under William the
Conqueror no man was permitted TO
remain In England over 40 DAYS un-
less he was enrolled in some taxable
unit
In Magma Charfa il Is specifically
provided that q widow is entitled to
remain In the house of her dead hus-
band for 10 days. This period Is
known In law as the widows quar-
antine.' and Ii gives a breathing spell
during which the widows dowry ma
be agreed Oh.
A man who held land In England
under d knights grant was bound to
respond TO the kings call and be pre-
pared well and fiftingly arrayed for
war; to serve 40 days.
The very word quarantine M
from the Latin term for 10. In mod
ern law we have quarantine periods
which are not always 40. Children
who have been exposed TO contagious
diseases are guaranteed for different
periods. depending on the period of
incubation of the germs involved.
In the Arabian Nights tale of THE
Forty Thieves" it was NOT meant that
the gang of highwaymen necessarily
had just that number. Forty is re
garded by the orienfaIs as a round
number. it might actually mean
more er less than 10 In n particular
Instance. So. If a senator should
charge that Wall Street is a den of
