These laws, like all others, are based upon the theory that there is a supreme, sovereign power, within the state, commanding that which is right and prohibiting that which is wrong. It should be remem- Lered that these laws have been formulated by the human desire to rise above the chaotic condition of no law, and many of them are profound exam- ples of the human attempt to pattern the decrees of infinite, divine justice. There is a well-defined and recognized rule or law which prevails in most civ- ilized countries that every indivivdual is presumed to be innocent of any wrong- doing until proved guilty by competent evidence beyond every reasonable doubt. This presumption is an essential and sub- stantial part of the law of the land, and it is the duty of courts and juries to maintain this presumption of innocence up to the very moment that it is over- come by the evidence. So strong is this presumption of innocence that the com- plaint, information, or indictment against an individual can never be used in and of itself to contradict or overcome this inherent presumption with which every individual is clothed. It is further a presumption of law that every one is HELPFUL MONEY SAVING SERVICE FREELY GIVEN ON ALL YOUR PAINT PROBLEMS Rasmesen's Stor: Painting and Decorating CANVAS WORK PAPER HANGING All styles of Glazing 0.

It presents logical, irrefutable proof that man lives by divine decree, and that the Seriptural text, "In him we live, and move, and have our being" declares the real status of man, and not merely an emotional theory. It declares emphat- ically that evil is not a person, place, or thing ; that it is not a cause or creator, and that there is no realm or dominion over which evil is the sovereign power. In fact, it denies that evil has any power except such as it assumes in human be- lief, and it then destroys this assumed power by overcoming the human mind with the divine Mind. Mrs. R. U.
