TWO IDEAS OF CIVIL LIBERTY
Difference Between Governments of
Greece and Rome and Those of
the Gothic Tribes.

There was this radical difference be-
tween the governments of Greece and
Rome and those of the Gothic tribes.
In the former the state was every
thing, the individual nothing; the
state was thought to have perfect
right to the property, liberty, and
even life, of it's citizens. In the lat
ter the individual was everything and
the state comparatively nothing; all
rights were thought to exist, to inhere
by nature in the individual; and the
state could demand nothing from him
for public use without giving him an
equivalent. Here we find the funda-
mental principle of civil liberty; that
principle which has been SO carefully
guarded In the English and in all the
Angl0-American constitutions, and
which was so happily and tersely ex-
pressed by Jefferson in the Declaration
of Independence. Our rude Saxon an
cestors, though under kingly govern
ment, had more real liberty, and a
more just appreciation of the true dig
nifty of man, than had the polished cit
liens Of the republics of the Mediter-
ranean. The legislative authority was
vested in the witenage-mote, or assem-
bly, of wise men.-Dexter A. Hawkins.

RemorsefuI Ghost.

A pathetic story is told of the ghost
of Bisham abbey. 1t is said that the
wife of Sir Thomas Hobby was I'M
naturally severe with her son. who, it
seems, had peculiar aversion to writ
ing, and in his obstinacy would Wilful-
ly blot his copybookS. One day his
mother, enraged at his peryerseness,
lost her self-control and beat the poor
boy so numerically that he died from
his injuries. Since then one of the
bedrooms in the abbey has been haunt
ed by the speeter of the cruel woman,
who glldes through the chamber in the
act of washing the bloodstains from
her hands.
1t is stated that some years ago,
when an old window shutter of the six
teenth century was removed, "a packet
Of antique copybooks of that period
was discovered pushed into the wall
between the joists of the skirting. and
several of these books, on which young
Hobby's name was written, were COW
cred with blots."

LAID BIBLE SCENES IN CHINA
Native Artist Had No Conception OF
Any other Land Outside OF
His Own.

In north Fukien province there dwelt
an artist who painted pictures on SILK
for the gentry of his little village. The
people in this secluded hamlet nestled
amid the hills, had never seen automo-
biles or airplanes, nor did they take
the long journey to Shanghai to watcn
the great steamers come In laden with
merchandise and messages from the
ports of the world. But they knew the
words of Confucius and Lao-tse and
they lived and died with simple dig
nifty as their fathers had done before
them. One evening the artist, VINO
had been working all day on me-
mortal portrait, strolled out into the
dark, cool street to refresh his tired
soul, writes Elsie f. We'll in Asia Mag
azine. The tiny white church of the
foreign god beyond the tea shop was
brilliantly lighted. The artist stood
a moment in the opeh door. The young
missionary was talking most eloquent
ly; he was not preaching, but he
seemed to be telling stories that were
as fascinating as those recited in the
bazaars. Almost in spite Of himself
the artist sank unobtrusively into an
empty seat. For the first time he
heard some of the beautiful old stories
of the Bible, which have held the peo-
Pile of the West enthralled for 1000
years. And the artist returned to his
home and made pictures of the story
of Noah and the flood, and of the par
ables of the lost sheep and of the prod
igal son and Of many others that were
in the book of the western missionary.
But he had never heard of the Pales-
tine. To him Noah was Chinese, and
the lost sheep belonged to farmer of
his province and the prodigal son
might well have been dissolute youth
of his own village.

NATIONS DEBT 70 PILGRIMS
Rightly Treasured as Great
State Document.

In the harbor at the tip Of Cape
Cod occurred the first birth and the
first death among the Pilgrims in
America. On board the Mayfower, as
she lay at anchor, was born PEREZ
CRIME, son of William and Susanna
White. Here was another child for
the ships nursery. already occupied by
little Oceanus Hopkins, who first saw
the light of day far out at sea.
The death was that of Dorothy May,
wife of William Bradford, future gov
ernor of Plymouth colony. She was
drowned.
First of importance, however, OF
all that occurred here, and also In
the sequence of events, was the draw
ing up and signing of the famous com.
pact of government, originally desig-
mated by Bradford in his history as "a
combination" And SO 1t was, in the
most literal sense, combination.
This agreement, made in writing by
a little group of Englishmen who had
been dismissed by their mother coun-
try as good radiance to bad rubbish"
is now treasured by the nation In
America, to which they contributed as
much as one of three great documents.
The other two are the Declaration OF
Independence and the Constitution of
the United States.
