LITTLE INDIVIDUALISM THERE.
Why Public Ownership Is Popular In
European Countries.
In Europe governments are largely
paternal because of the lack of Indi
vidualism. The very helplessness of
the people fosters and necessitates pa
ternalism. That is why national and
municipal governments operate public
utilities. Under a monarchy, for that
reason, the tendency of the people is
naturally toward socialism.
The phenomenal growth und pros
perity of the United States have been
attained without either paternalism or
socialism. Compare the condition of
the people here, their better living,
their comfort and happiness, with the
condition of the people of the nations
of Europe, and there is only one con
clusion—that is that for us individual
ism is the state policy, and we do not
have to borrow the institutions of for
eign nations created by a need from
which we are free. It is just because
of our individualism that socialistic In
stitutions and co-operative schemes
never prosper here.—Newark (N T . J.) Ad
vertiser.

Youthful Preachers.
Some remarkable preachers started
very early in life. The Abbe de Ranee
was a splendid Greek scholar at twelve
and shortly afterward was appointed
to an important benefice. Rossuet
preached before a brilliant Parisian as
sembly at the age of fifteen, and Fene
lon, who afterward became an arch
bishop, also preached an extraordinary
sermon at the same age.—Pittsburg
Press.
Trunks.
In the days of William the Conqueror
boxes for carrying money and valua
bles were made in a very primitive
fashion, the lids being simply half the
trunk of u tree hollowed out; hence
the name trunk. In an oid Kentish
church in England there is to be seen
such a trunk, which is said to be the
one in which the Conqueror kept the
money with which he paid Ida soldiers.

Lightning sometimes take a zigzag
course, because electricity seeks the
earth and strives to get there by the
path of least resistance. In some
places the air by its density forms a
greater obstruction than in others. The
lightning flies from side to side to find
the easiest path.
