Profit in Welcome .That’s Real BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON There is a little town in Pennsylvania that is unusually fortunate in its hotel—which means, of course, that the proprietors of the hotel must be unusual people. They are! When this worthy host and his wife hung up a sign years ago which read, “No one leaves here hungry,” it was from a true sense of appreciation of their guests and their own anxiety to serve them. There was no commercial catch behind it. No joker in the deck. They said it and they meant it, for not only did they practice what they preached, and filled up the traveling salesmen and their other patrons with all the food they could hold, but they saw to it that the food was well cooked, delicious and attractively served. All for 75 Cents The miracle comes in when you hear the price. All this for 75 cents! Broiled chicken, biscuits, honey and home-made jam, half a dozen vegetables, salad, pie—take your choice —or if you prefer it, ice cream (cream, mark you) or, in season, plum pudding and mince or pumpkin pie. They started at 75 cents years ago. They still charge 75 cents, when food all over the country has advanced four times over. The place is always full- Travelers pass up bigger places two dozen miles away, to come here, not so much to save a f dollar as to enjoy the good food and the real hospitality. Traveling men manage to make their stopovers last as long as possible. No one wants to leave. Guaranty Against Loss The kindly people who run this hotel have put the town on the map and have brought so much business to the place that the mer-

DRINK WATER TO HELP WASH OUT KIDNEY POISON If Your Back Hurts or Bladder Bothers You, Begin Taking Salts. When your kidneys hurt and your back feels sore don’t get scared and proceed to load your stomach with a lot of drugs that excite the kidneys and irritate the entire urinary tract. Keep your kidneys clean like you keep your bowels clean, by flushing them with a mild, harmless salts which helps to remove the body’s urimous waste and stimulates them to their normal activity. The function of the kidneys is to filter the blood. In 24 hours they strain from it 500 grains of acid and waste, so we can readily understand the vita! importance of keeping the kidneys active. Drink lots of good water—you can’t drink too much; also get from any pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast each morning for a few days and your kidneys may then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for years to help clean and stimulate clogged kidneys; also to neutralize the acids in the system so they are no longer a source of irritation, thus often relieving bladder weakness. Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot injure; makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink, which everyone should take now and then to help keep their kidneys clean and active. 'Try this; also keep up the water drinking and no doubt you will wonder what became of your kidney trouble and backache.—Advertisement.

chants have offered to stake them if they lose. “We don’t need any help,” they answer proudly. “We make money.” And they convince you that they do so. It means early and late hours for' both of them and very hard work. They are content with a modest profit. 7 They don’t expect a dele from the public in the form of high prices to take the place of their labor. As someone said. “The lazier we get as a people the higher the cost of living is going to be.” But there is more to it than the money. People naturally gravitate to the place where they get a real welcome. This couple like people- It is as true of a house as it is of a hotel.

AT Nineveh, north or Assur on the Tigris, Sargon 11. (722705) and Sannacherib (705*681) built anew capital, whose splendor outshone anything that Western Asia had seen before. Within their palaces sculptors wrought works of bas-relief, which still remain unrivalled in their portrayal of moving and suffering animals. In the palace of Sennacherib’s grandson, Assurbanipal (668-626) whom the Greeks called Sardanapalus—recent explorers have found the remains of the imperial library, containing 22,000 “volumes" (as we should say) in clay-tablet form. One tablet tells the old legend of the flood, and appends this stem inscription Whosoever, shall carry off this tablet...may Assur and Belit overthrow him in wrath and anger, and may they destroy his name and posterity in the land.” So ancient are the habits of bookkeepers. And then the wheel of history turned once more, and a npw tribe of hardy nomads, unspoiled with libraries, appeared as “Kaldi” or Chaldeans in the South, looked with envy upon the wealth of Nineveh, laid siege to it with the help of the Medes, captured and ruined it (612 B. C.) and formed an empire of their own. Upon the remains of ancient Babylon the Chaldeans built| another capital, as luxurious as any that the land had seen, and on the roof of his great palace Nebuchadnezzar (604-561) laid out those famous “Hanging Gardens of Babylon,” which the Greeks numbered among the Seven Wonders of the World. Commerce and industry flourished and science grew as never before. It was the Chaldean astrologers who, in the attempt to foretell human events by the course of the stars, laid the bases of astronomy, plotted the Zodiac, named the constellations and mapped out the sky. The five planets were to them gods; and though we know those planets now by Roman names (Jupiter, Venus, etc.), these are but Latin correlatives of Chaldean deities (Marduk, Ishtar, etc.) The loveliest of these gods, Ishtar, the Babylonian Venus, is still unwittingly honored in our festival of Easter. So Chaldea waxed in wealth and power, and gathered, taxes far and wide. In 586 B. C. the little kingdom of Judah, the southern half of Palestine, fell to the conquerors Jerusalem was captured and C€stroyed, and thousandsof Jews were carried to Babylon in bondage. It was this tragedy that made little Judea great, and prepared it to become the supreme moral teacher of mankind. a, a tt tt m LAWMAKERS ii TT'ROM Dan to Beersheba” I JT Palestine runs 150 miles north and south; east and west it varies from twenty-five to eighty miles; in all, it achieves the area of New Jersey.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Its soil is poor; for the most part barren hills, and plains of rock and sand; too parched to pay fruitfully for human effort; pinned in by the desert and shut off from the sea. Nevertheless, in that mountainous waste a great people grew, sending out from its beleaguered cities majestic poetry, profound philosophy, and religions that have exalted and transformed the soul of man. They were a fusion of many nomad tribes; in their origin, Renan thinks, they were like the Arabs that ride the desert today. What gave them unity was first the patriarchal polygamous family, stern and omnipotent as always before the coming of the State; and an undiscourageable faith in their tribal deity, Yahveh (Jahveh, Jehovah), the god of thunder and war. They needed a god as strong as the hills to bear them up in their centuries of wandering and trials, for of all the world’s peoples none has suffered more. When first they appear in history it is as Egyptian immigrants and slaves; some had been captured in battle, some had come in sljw, nomadic migration, from eastern Arabia—the land of Ur, where the Two Rivers pass into the sea. Like immigran s everywhere, they were given the hardest work to-do; little wdnder that toward 1250 B. C. they joined in a revolt and fled from the land, welcoming even the wilderness in preference to continued slavery. Who led them none now can say; tell if Moses is an historical character or the convenient fiction of an Egyption princess. ' The tale of the Exodus has different forms in different historians, so that prejudice has a royal choice. The ancient Greek choeremon tells of a plague that broke out in Egypt, and how the priests persuaded the King to expel the Jews as a source of it. Taeitus and Diodorus of Sicily tell the same tale; and though we must allow a generous discount for the anti-Semit-ism of classic historians, it would not be surprising if an enslaved people had found cleanliness an impossible luxury. Josephus quotes the Egyptian historian Manetho (who wrote about 250 B. C.) as attributing the Exodus* to a desire of the Egyptians to protect themselves from a plague of leprosy that had broken out among the Jews; Manetho adds that Moses was an Egyptian priest who joined the lepers, led them out of Egypt, and gave them the laws of cleanliness modelled on those of the Egyptian priesthood. It is true that Moses Is an Egyp-

tian rather that a Hebrew name; but it is truer that Manetho is a lover of legends. (Josephus, Antiquities, bk. 11., Tacitus, Histories, bk. v., ch. 3; Knappert, The Religion of Israel, pp. 31-32; Renan, History of the People of Israel, vol. 1, p. 134.) * * # v PICTURE the Jews now wandering for half a century across the peninsula of Sinai (1150-1100 B. C.), harassed with hunger and thirst in a land which seemed to grow nothing but dirt and stones; losing faith at times in their tribal deity, and seeking mystic comfort in exotic gods. For a while they reverted to the worship of the serpent and the bull —strange phallic cults of the Egyptian peasantry. Legend has it that to bring tncTn back to Yahveh Mosses went up into a mountain and came down with tablets of stone bearing the Ten Commandments, of which the first sternly bade the people to return to their own god. So the Persians tell how one day, as Zoroaster prayed on a high mountain, the Lord appeared to him amid thunder and lightning and delivered to him the “Book of the Law.” In the Greek story Dionysius was called “Lawgiver” and was represented with tablets of stone engraved with laws. The Cretans told of King Minos receiving laws from God on Mount Dicta; and Hammurabi, as we have seen relied upon the same diplomacy. Doubtless the Decalogue developed gradually out of the “mores” or vital customs of the tribe, as similar codes have arisen everywhere, and not for half a thousand years yet were they to receive their final formulation. At last the weary Jews emerged from,the desert and entered the fertile fields of Caiiaan. Story has it that thety fought their way in ruthlessly, but a people could be forgiven a certain pertinacity in refusing to re-enter the wilderness. Perhaps, too. some of that cruelty was invented by their own historians. for cruelty was admired in those days, as it still is in husbands. What war there was was seon forgotten; we find the Jews marrying freely with the Canaanites, with a Semitic people whom they called Philistines, and even with the distant Hittites, who contributed to the mixture their majestic noses.

Established in Canaan, the Jews formed a state, and to be in the fashion set up a king. But their priests erred in choosing Saul. Nature sometimes countermands our coronations and raises up kings of her own with no pedigree but a native power. Out in the desere a handsome young brigand by the name of David was lifting himself to such wealth and influence that Hiram, Prince of Tyre, helped him to the throne of the new kingdom in return for the free passage of Phoenician commerce through Palestine to the Red Sea. David built anew capital at Jerusalem, ruled for a generation (ca. 1000-960 B. C.) and founded a dynasty that reigned for half a thousand years. He was a rollickingly pagan and ruthless fellow, with e taste for battle and beauty, but posterity, which loves distant villains, forgot his sins, foisted him into sanctity. Solomon, son and successor of David, displayed his deviations from monogamy too widely to be so thoroughly shrived; but as he became the husband of “seven hundred wives and three hundred concu-

bines” legend transformed him into a philosopher. The skeptical Renan reduces the ladles to sixty wives and eighty concubines (as if it could make much difference after the tenth). To house these pretty problems Solomon built a magnificent palace, full of Oriental splendor. Then he built a temple, slightly smaller, to right' himself with God. The dimensions are guaranteed by the Bible, but “as a general rule all the figures in the Bible must be taken with great caution. “The men of the East never count, but they always name a precise figure.” (Renan.). The temple brought into religion a centralization of power that reflected the consolidation of the monarchy. The priests, partly graduating into scholars, had now the leisure and resources to gather together the legends and laws of their people. About 620 B- c.
