Upon the laws which he formu lated most of the civil code* of Christen- •Nan are today based, lu sheer greatness Moses towers a Mount Everest. But he had sinned; nnd In punishment he was kept out of the promised land. The com p la I nlug of the children of Israel hail angered hnn, so that lie smote the rock at Merthflh twice.

As the one hundred and third psnlui has It: rtnln editor of a great dally say that, to his mind, the most pathetic figure In history Is this man Moses, who, having licked those infkerable beggars of Israel ites Into something like shii|H> ns a nation, and having borue nil the burdens, should nnd having borue all the burdens, should wttblu sight of the goal have to lie down alone and- die.

A Grave Without a Tomb. As recent events show, the laborer Is often permitted to see the results of bis toll l>efore closing his eyes forever. Five years ago it seemed ns if the men nmj women, who lu earnestness and In lofty devotion to high Ideals, had fought against the evils of the modern business trusts would remain to the end merely the objects of the Jeering worn of the rich nnd power ful. Now, tiehold, they live to'see the cor poration magnates cowering beneath the iupcndlng stroke of Justice. Those of u* ■’ still young well remember When The F.nst Is the land of graves. The wor ship of ancestors Is the cult of most of the people who dwell therein. The dead seem to have more rights than the living. Go<l knew that If the tomb of Moses should l*« known, the mini who bad so often been cursed III life would be worshipped when dead. So, as the simple narrative run*, "Moses the servant of Jehovnh died there In the land of Moab, according to the won! of Jehovua. And he buried him In the val ley In the land of.Moab over against Beth- poor; but no man knowefh of his sepulchre unto this day."
