soul of Americanism, is that all men

in getting capitalist and laborer to
realise that; to get together, to em­

man or class of men what they want.

Life and Death a Unity.
Life Is a state which follows upon
death. Death la a state which pre­
cedes life. Which of us understands
the laws that govern their succession?
The life.of man Is the resultant of
forces. The aggregation of these forces
Is life; their dispersion, death.
If,
then, life and death are hut consecu­
tive states of existence, what cause
for sorrow have I?
And so It U that all things are but
phases of unity. What men delight
►Jn Is the spiritual essence of life. What
’’ they loathe Is the material corruption
of death.
But this state of corrup­
tion gives place to that state of spir­
ituality and that atafe of spirituality
gives place In turn to this state of
corruption.
Therefore we may say
that all in the universe Is comprised
In unity; and therefore the Inspired
among us have adopted unity as their
criterion.—H. A. Giles, In “Translated
Gems From Chinese Literature.”
