The *•;«oi It is generally acknowledged that the Bcller bound by cert/un moral ' .xws, which are so neec«fcnry and i in - po hint as to have become prr l ; of Uie commerciai code itself. llin goods must be as represented; they must be so'd in honest quantifies and a price which makes tho ox change a lair transact ion and not a robbery. There are the ethics of sale. They are supposed to enter into every business transaction, and the'r transgression by the seller is considered sullicient to cancel a liar gain or even subject tho seller to legal punishment. But, on the other hand, are there no ethics ot'puiehasfl ? Is lie who buj s exempt (or the moral obliga tions ol him who soils? On the (nee of it such a supposition is unfu v . Yet one finds a practical dilliculty at (list in determining what the mo:al obligations of the purchaser really are. Only a siiigle obliga tion occurs, at first thought, and that is one which is so rarely and with such dilliculty violated as to seem more like a factor of necessity than a moral obligation, viz, that the medium of exchange yi. c. money) proffered by the purchaser shall be a genuine, and not a false, rcpresentati 11 of value. 15ut a little closer study of the question suggests to the mind cer tain larger relations of the purchaser —relations to the community and to society in general—which bring him under the dominion of a higher kind of ethics, 110 is, or ought, to consider the effect of his act upon the welfare of his fcllowini 11. For in stance, when a mm buys a glass of whisky, which is sure lo goto his brain and make him for a time irre sponsible or vicious, or when a woman goes into a large dry goods store and buy a mere trille a gar ment which she knows lias been thus reduced in price by the inhuman sweating system which is draining the very lifeblood of sonio over worked sister, in such instances as these the purchaser is transgressing the higher ethical laws which apply to him as one of the parties in a com inercial transaction. And tliesc arc really much mora vital and signifi cant principles of ethics than those which the seller lias to take into con sideration. Iney have a wider range of influence and a more 'un daniental effect upon society It i> a vastly greater and more harmful moral ollense, if one did but icali;\ it.to give one's countenance and suppoi i 1,0 such a gigantic evil a the sweating system than lo sell Minded sugar and to sell it an ounce short ol life pound. it is a inuch greater transi? region to buy a gin •> ( 112 whisky that which is Impure and inferior. Iho ollense is always greater in proportion as its rrsoks are more wide reaching, fiinihnmUal and permanent. It is time that socielv began In recognize the existence and inipo.t unce of the ethics of purchase. We are now well impregnated, in our commercial life, with the lower grade ethics of sale. What we need it, more susceptibility and fidelity to the right and wrong involved in I'te aot of buying.
