Christ and His Friends.

This is volume of sermons that were
delivered early in the present year at the
Hanson-place M. E. Church. Brooklyn,
N. Y, by Rev. Louis Albert Banks, ID.
They are revival sermons, the themes and
texts all selected from st. Johns gospel.
With rather curious appearance of
egotism, the author tells us in his preface
that CATER few hours study during the
morning of the day in which the sermon
was to be delivered. it was first dictated to
a stenographer, though it was afterward
in the evening preached without notes. -
One wonders just why this explanation
is given. A perusal of the sermons leaves
the impression that they must have gained
much in delivery, from the presence and
personality Of the speaker. They are
ecdote and pointed illustration, and full of
personal appeals to unbelievers. New

have said that our composite flowers
survive by virtue of their having associated
themselves together in colonies in order
that their aggregate endeavor may accom-
phsh that which is beyond their in
dividual efforts. do not imagine for one
moment that this association was volun-

OF blossoms was probably adventltlOus-
because it has been better for the species
the composite form has persisted. Those
flowers with a tendency to separate them
selves from the mass are so small as to be
overlooked by insects. They do not get
fertilized and. therefore, perish. Thus the
individualistic type does not become per-
petuated. [ have sometimes found a
blghted clover blossom with single
flower occupying the head in the full glory
of its indfviduality. Such a blossom is
not beautiful.
Studying my dandelion, with its wealth
of yellow flowers safe and comfortable in

to consider what would become of this

FLORAL SOCIALISTS.

Some weeks ago, In an article OF this
series, took occasion to write of spiders,
ants and bees, calling these creatures, be-
cause of their respective habits, anarchists,
communists and socialists.
Since then my friends the human an
archists have addressed to me various
communications of protest. They do not
care to be likened to spiders, albeit this
Woodworking insect is the quintessence of
the individualism which they so warmly
cherish. One of my unknown correspond
ents, however, is brave enough to accept
the logical conclusions of his own theories.
"Give me-" he says, ''the dangers attend
ing the freedom of the spider, rather than
the protection and plenty attending the
slavery of the ant and the bee.
Government is an order of nature rather
than of intelligence. All gregarious ami
mails tend toward government. 1t is a
mode sometimes best adapted to perpetu-
ate the race. 1t is in no wise dependent
upon intelligent reason. In fact, the less
reason the more perfect the organization.
But give me the liberty of the in
dividual, even if it must be in poverty and
isolation, rather than the comfort of the
well-fed neuter in the hive of humanity"
I willingly concede to this correspondent
the fullest possible attainment of liberty
his individuality can bear. We are not
concerned to-day with his political beliefs,
but with his entirely scientific postulate
that government is an order of Nature.
Unlike our friends, the anarchists, how
ever, Nature has no special regard for indi
viduals. What she aims at is the perpetu-
alton of the species, and to the attainment
of this end she seeks to develop in the in
dividual fitness to survive.

Children of the Soil.

The rapid development in the last quar-
ter of century of the literature and art of
Eastern Europe is one of the most noted
phenomena of our time. Compared with
the people of America, or of Western
Europe, the Slavonic race seems hardly
emerged from barbarism, and yet, though it
lacks broad, popular education, and has
comparatively few seats of learning, it con-
tributes to the world at this time very

ordinary faculties entitle them to take

central figures of the Polanyetski family
are gathered a host of other families and
individuals as in real life. Though the
book is thus crowded with characters there
are no lay figures or uninteresting person.
ages. Every man and woman has a dis
tinct individuality, and the dominant
traits of each are depicted as graphically as
are those of the characters of the greatest
masters of recent literature.
Even in the translation, it can be seen
that the author is master of a most versa
tile style and has at his command wide
range of emotions. Though the story deals
with the affairs of stockbr who
ends by becoming a farmer, and flows
always in the course of the most
commonplace events of life, such as love
making, money-making and marriage,
with the inseparable Accomplishments of
disappointments and deaths, it never for a
moment becomes dull or sinks below the
level of true intellectual enjoyment.
There are in it humor and pathos, wit and
philosophy, the sparkle of light epigram
and the poetry of pure emotion. Alto
gether 1t forms notable book and Will in
crease the fame of the author by showing
his ability to deal with the subtle prob
lens of psychology, as well as with adven-
ture and the dramatic elements of thrilling
romance.

Natures laws hold good all along the line

laws is government. Nor are her laws to
be cut across with impunity. Floral an
archy would mean death to the individual

would mean death to the individual and
to that composite flower of the human
decentralization.

Another contribution to the library
growing up to meet the demands of the
Napoleon craze. The present work is, how
ever, one of real interest and value to the
student of history. 1t is the memoirs of
General Count de Segur of the French
Academy, who cut brilliant figure in war.
politics and letters from the beginning of
this century to near the close of it's third
quarter. Count de Segur in the year 1900
was a private in the army of France. He
was made general in 1872, and fought
continuously up to the end of the imperial
era. he served through all the wars of
the empire, either on the staff of Napoleon
or at the head of picked troops. He has
given to the world a very valuable contri-
button to history in his History, Memoirs
and Miscellanea, which was published, in
eight volumes, soon after his death, in
1873. These volumes contain a complete
history of Napoleon and his campaigns,
and from them has been taken this per-
sonal record which the Appletons have
just issued in handsome octave volume.
The work has been revised by grandson
of the author Count Louis de Segur, and
translated by n, A. Patched Martin. The
soldier author is a man of letters as well
as of deeds, and the book is written in
SIcdiJ HclfOuSy OIdfndllC StyIe CndG gives
the reader the strongest possible impress
sion of the time with which it deals. He
is not, as so many memoirists of that
period have been, a blind admirer of Ma
poleon. He often enters into a rigid
analysis of the great hero's acts and the
motives prompting them, and does not
hesitate to speak the truth with severity
on occasion, as in the matter of the MUIR
der, for he calls it murder, of the Due
d'Enghien.
The book is particularly interesting in
the accounts it gives of the various cam
paigns of Napoleon, particularly that in
Russia, and there are many notable per-
sonal "reminiscences of the authors father,
Count de Segur, celebrated ambassador
of the great Catherine, who concluded the
first treaty between France and Russia,
and who was one of the French combat

THE PARK FIGURES.

When the question ofs park was being
advocated. Mayor Tiepke advocated
Daggett Farm because il was 80 cheap,
$4,000. At the time, we stated that il
had been offered for $4,000. Now we
find we must buy additional land 80 as
to get into the park for the small item
of e57, 900 more. And in this connec-
ton, the tax-book shows that the Hyde
farm, for which $4,000 is offered, is
taxed for $1,000; that Peter Lemons
farm, for which he is bid $4,000, il
taxed for 81, 100, and that Mr.. Sayles
land. for which he asks $4,000, is taxed
for Less than $500.
Surely this is too laughable.
