MVILI^TION I r .fry DR.WILL DURANT 1

CHAPTER II r—i UR oldest extant record of O Chinese life is'Confucius’ ranges from 2400 to 700 B. C. In another volume, “Spring and Autumn Annals,” the philosopher describes in dry chronicle his own “Feudal Age” (722-479 B. C.) in which the power of the central government was gradually superseded by that of local lords given joyously to love and war. It was the chaos of this period that stimulated Lao-tse and Confucius to philosophies of escape from the political turmoil that surrounded them. Lao-tse (b. 604 B. C.) means Old Philosopher; his real name was Li—i. e., a plum. He was one of those quiet and sensative souls who want above all things else to be let alone; and his conception of government was built, like ThoreauX upon his hunger for personal independence and spiritual peace. He did not seek pupils, but they came to his retreat; and to them in proud aphorisms he taught Tao, the Way. In the highest antiquity (says Lao-tse) the people did not know that they had rulers. In the next age they loved and praised them. In the next they feared them. In the next they despised them...As restrictions and prohibitions are multiplied in the Empire, the people grow poorer and poorer. When the people are subjected to overmiibh government, the land is thrown into confusion... .The greater the number of laws and enactments, the more thieves and robbers there will be. Therefore the sage says:—So long as I do nothing, the people will work out their own reformation.” , • • • I _-KNOWLEDGE had no honor kT in this philosophy; Lao-tse Li— l denounces it with the fervor of Rousseau. If there were less education, he thought, there would be fewer rascals. Nothing could be more disastrous than letting philosophers rule; they would meddle with everything. “He who tries to govern a State by wisdom is a scourge to it.” Ability in making theories is a sign of incompetence in practice; “they who know don’t talk; they who talk don’t know.” (Mr. Shaw would be chagrined to find how old is his opinion of teachers.) Knowledge is unnatural, but truth and happiness are only in natural things. There is a law, a Way or Tao, In nature; and the secret of perfection lies in the obedience of everything to its own nature, and to the nature of the whole. “Leave all things to their natural course and do not interfere.” “Do nothing by selfwill, but rather conform to the infinite will, and everything will be done for you.” At every turn we find in Lao-tse a remarkable agreement with Christ. Requite injury with kindness. To the good I would be good; to the not-good I would also be good, in order to make them good. With the faithful I would keep faith; with the unfaithful I would also keep faith, in order that they may become faithful. He who has no faith in others will find no faith in them. Keep behind, and you shall be put in front. He that humbles himself shall be preserved. He that bends shall be made •straight. He who is great makes humility his base. He who, conscious of being strong, is content to be weak—he shall be the paragon of mankind. To know, but to be as not knowing, is the height of wisdom. The Sage knows what is in him, but makes no display; he respects himself, but seeks no honor for himself. All things in nature work silently. They come into being and possess nothing. They fulfil their function and make no claim. All things alike do their work, and then we see them subside. When they have reached their bloom each returns to its origin. Returning to their origin means rest, or fulfilment of destiny. This reversion is an eternal law. To know that law is wisdom. We do not know when Lao-tse died, but if we may believe Sau-ma Ch’ien, the old Chinese historian, he lived at least till 518 B. C., when, in his eighty-sixth year, he was visited by a teacher called Kung-fu-tse, who was destined to become the greatest figure in the history of China.

mHE younger man was then absorbed in historical research and asked Lao-tse to tell him of ancient kings and of primitive religion, to which Lao-tse answered scornfully: “Those about whom you inquire have moulded with their bones into dust. • Nothing but their words remain. When the hour of the great man has struck he rises to leadership, but before his time has come he is hampered in all that he attempts. I have heard that the successful merchant carefully conceals his wealth and acts as though he had nothing—that the great man, though abounding in achievements, is simple in his manners and appearance. Get rid of your pride and your many ambitions, your affectation and your extravagant aims. Your character gains nothing from all these. This is my advice to you.” The greatness of Kung-fu-tse shone out at once in his acceptance of the reproof. He heard the voice of authentic wisdom in the old master’s words and made no complaint at the stem reception given to him. Instead he said to his disciples; “The birds —I know they can fly; the fishes—l know they can swim; the wild beasts—l know they can run. The runner may be caught by the trap, the swimmer may be taken with a line, and the flyer may be shot by an arrow. But as for the dragon, I am unable to know how he rises on the winds

WREATH ON GRAVE OF HERO AFTER PROTEST Evansville Mayor Pays for Flowers to Honor James B. Gresham. Bn Times Special EVANSVILLE, Ind., Nov. B.—A wreath has been placed on the grave here of James Bethel Gresham, one of the first three American soldiers to fall in France during the World War. Mayor Males paid for the wreath after an American Legion post at Washington, D. C., had accompanied a protest of neglecting the grave with an offer to buy flowers’. Many protests have come to the mayor following announcement that on Nov. 3, tenth anniversary of Gresham’s death, not a flower was on the grave. Since then several wreaths have been placed anonymously. Arrangements for decorating the grave Friday, Armistice day, have been made by the Service Legion.

DULL, ACHING FEELING BITTER TASTE

RS. Mabel Reagan, of Corbin, Ky., has given the following interesting account of hpr use of Thedford’s. Black-Draught for a very common ailment: “I have been taking BlackDraught, at intervals, for ten or more years. My health has grown better since taking Black-Draught. ‘‘For many years, I suffered with constipation. I could not sleep at night. I would have a dull, aching feeling in my limbs, up my back, and in my head. “I suffered with gas pains, and had such a bitter taste in my mouth.

“A friend, one day, asked me why I did not do something for this. She said, ‘Get some Black-Draught; it will drive out that poison.’ “I began to take Black-Draught then, and found it just as she had

and the clouds to the sky. Today I have seen Lao-tse; he is like the dragoil.” And then the new masetr went forth to fulfil his own mission. Kung-fu-tse—i. e., Kung the Teacher, known to us through his Latinized name, Confucius —was born at Ch’ufu, in Shantaung, 551 B. C. His father was prosperous enough to let his son indulge his inclination to study; and Kung became skilled in music, archery, religion and knowledge. “A man’s character,” he said, “is formed by the Odes, developed by the Rites, and perfected by music.” He was so affected by hearing a beautiful melody that he could not eat meat for three months—a strange path to vegetarianism. • * • rr-TINLIKE Lao-tse (or Socra--11 tes, or Christ), who taught L——J but did not write, Confucius wrote as well as taught. The oldest extant books in Chinese literature are his. As historian he composed the “Book of History” and the “Spring and Autumn Annals”; as a lover of the old ritual he wrote the “Book of Rites”; as a lover of poetry, the “Book of Odes”; as philosopher, the “Analects” and the “Great Learning.” Never has one man so determined the character and thought of his people as with these books and with his life Confucius determined, and almost fixed, the

recommended it to be. After I had taken a few doses, I rested at night, and felt much better, rested, and full of life. I would not be without it. “From then on to now, I have used it whenever I had the least sign of constipation or sluggishness.” Constipation dams up poisons In the bowels, where they are absorbed into the general system, causing many serious symptoms. Black-Draught relieves the constipation, helping the organs to flush the system out in a natural manner,, carrying away the poisons, and relieving the troubles which they cause.

thought and character of the Chinese. We cannot love everything in him. There was a Puritan strictness about him which must have kept happiness at a timid distance; and he put such store by manners and ceremonies as would hardly suit our democratic tastes. “All virtues have their source in etiquette”; and “even in killing men one should observe the rules of propriety.” “In driving with a woman one must drive with one hand,” he writes, in thoroughly modern fashion; but then he continues, with a strange error in the pronoun—“and keep the other hand behind his back.” A woman "may take no step of her own motion, and may come to no conclusion in her own mind”; —and apparently men were giants in those days. But see him as his loving disciples saw him, as Tseng-tse describes him:—“Ability asking instruction of incompetence, abundance sitting at the feet of insufficiency, a man of every virtue who thought he had none, solid in character, yet making himself a cipher, trespassed against but never retaliating—such was the humble state of mind in which my late friend spent his life.” (Copyright, 1927, By Will Durant.)
