Hanxibkl Dixon 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.

'liberally for their assis tance: People who have taken THE DEISGNER ever since it was started write that it is the equal of any dollar magazine published, and that they would not be without it for a month if it cost tri ple its present price of fifty cents a year.

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. —London Mail. 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.
