I ' an government Could Have Bought Morse. Telegraph for $100,000. ts sixty-rave years since the Postmaster General, acting for the United States government inaugurated 8erv-C3 over the first commercially operated telegraph line in the coun try. between Washington and Balti more. ' On that date (April 1. 1845) Prof. C . .wun,e ana ais associates offered to sell his telegraph invention, now seed in every clvikixed country to the gov erument for $100,000. Congress, following one of the most acrimonious debates in it history. appropriated $30,000 for the coo- 8 traction of the Washinajton-Batlanore line in order that the merits of the Invention might be tested and its value as a government perquisite determined should it ever be regard el as a desirable Federal purchase. Dismissing the proposition as of tx conjectural a value, the Post master General, to whose Judgment .resident Polk deferred, said of the lorae system: "Although the invention is an gent vas.lv superior to any other e vised by the genius of man. yet tin operation between Washington an jaWimore has not satisfied me that under any rate of postage that can oe adopted its revenue can be made to cover its expenditures." Today in this country alone the Morse system Is capitalized for 220,000,000. Prof. Alexander Graham Bell rf.er-ed to sell his telephone patents o the Western Union Telegraph Com any for $60,000. but the officers of the company said it was only a toy and bad no commercial value. Tbs same toy, according to the annual report of the American Tele phone and Telegraph Company. Just issued, earned $150,000,000 last year and has now more than 5.000,000 tel ephones in use throughout this coun try, i. Will Make Good. Sayg the Scotland Neck Common wealth: "Mr. Richard G.

Bertram E. Brows.) This Is the fourth of the ten com mandments given by Jehovah ha Me sea on Mt. Sinai. In two particulars this law hag; been amended by Christ and His Church. 1. When Jesus avowed bU Apos tles to gather grain for food on ths Sabbath day, and when Hs HbnaehT did works of healing on that day. He absolved us from the obligation to obey the strict letter of the law which forbade all manner of work. Bo Christian people, following the Mas ter's precept and example. hold themselves at liberty now to do works of necessity and mercy on the Lord's day. soch ss preparing food. selling and buying drugs, ttsndlmg to the sick, and also such things as m xl ra conditions render neceawan- running trains, distributing mails and the like. 2. The Christian Church. set mg under the authority of the Holy Spirk who inspired K. -Kjngsd the day from the seventh to the first. from Saturday to Sunday. In honor of the day upon which the Saviour rose from the dead. The OoosmanO' ment thus amended, is binding to all ChrisJan oeonLe as one of the laws of God. Before going Into the matter of keying the law as k applies to the Lord's day. let us consider a clause of the Commandment that has re- cefved far lees attention than it deserves that Is. the command "Sis days shalt thru labor." That direc tion Is quite as definite and posi th-e as the other concerning the Sabbath, "lu x thou shalt do no man ner of work." Yet we have all beard ten times a much about tbc sin of working ou the Sabbath as we have about the sin of NOT Monday aad Tuesday. R u notions so much better to talk a bout the doty of not working than the duty of working, but Gods law Is Just as sinfully broken and God Just as much offended If you spend s week-day in Idle, lazy worthless aeas. as if you spend a Sunday In plow ing or selling goods. Now. let us see about the proper obedience to God's law as to H holy day First, we certainly are com to rest on it from our worldly it ought to be enough tor us to obey this because God tells as to do so. but He Is always reasonable and teUs us why we ought to rest. He says we should rest beennaa He rests. We were made In His unngn. and our best life therefore consists In doing as nearly like He does as we can. In one sense God never rests, for all things exist by the ceaseless operation of His will. Bet In another sense He does rest af ter Has labour. For Instance, la His world of organic nature, we ana HJn aotr-vky of Spring and Summer and Autumn, when all things, throbbing with His energy, grow and bring forth fraft and ripen k. followed by the rest of Winter, when His or Mas dormant wasting tor She work 1 ., Sni4n. con, again. 1 K a certain sense, man can , neTer re0 for him bean namt and hie longs must urea the and nev er for one moment stop, nor do the thoughts of his mind even an another seaae man m from his labours, must cense has toil or break down and die. So God says 1st your rest-time come one day in seven, for you and your chx dren and our errant and ; cattle that between whiles too may do your labour wntt. The practical wisdom of the sev enth day as one of rest has been proven by actaal experience. The Government of France during the Revolution ordained every tenth day instead of every seventh .as a rest ,d ln three years a general pro- t3B. from the laboriag classes reread t&em to return to the old plan. Tea daya continuous labour proved in intolerable burden for man beast. Secondly, we are commanded and only to rest on the Sabbath day. bat kep u a holj eoasecrat to rjod.
