American Versatility.

II America a man finds he can turn
his hand to anything. IIo discovers his
ability when he ilds he has to do it.
Ia Europe he generally has ono trade
and he cannot easily get into any other.
America is the most versatile nation on
the face Of the globe, barring the dudes.
IN Europe when workman invcnts
some new appliance his employer ives
him five shi,lings a week more and grabs
the invention. In America when a man
shows his employer some new dodge by
which he can make money, the cm-
ployer takes him into partnership and
he always inveuti more things. But it
is curious how versatile American, are.
You Will find a man in the stock busi-
ness who has been a dan cling master {;
you'll find many lawyers who have been
doctors ana doctors who have been law
yers; you'll iud people who have Grad
uated from the bar to tho pupit-ycs,
perhaps from botl bars; you will find a
man who cut your corns wyears ago
contracting to build railroads. You
will not often meet such versatility in
Europe. When a man has once fairly
started as a doctor there he has got to
keep on if he starvas at the business.
If he has been trained for the church
he will have to die curote, if it be his
luck never to get any further up, If a
nun becomes a clerk ho clerks it all his
life, and he darent step out because
every avenue Is ovcrcrowded. So he
hasn't chance to develop any versatiI-
ity and one can sec how the curious
caste system arose in China where fam
lilies follow the trada Of their fathers
till the end of TINS. - Graphic
