In Lewis Stuyvesant Chanier's speeches, as !n those of some other Dem @erats, may be found Jeffersonian maxims which have the correct ring, bu which, after all. are not conclusive. Aa a political philosopher and write: Jefferson was a theorist. He set down ideas and principles having a wie application. In office he applied these ideas to the matters at hand, an. it is to be sald to his honor that he did not often permit a theory to stani/ in the way of the public good. Jefferson's writings will always furnish spirstion for Democrats, but it is to Jeffersonism in action rather than Jeffersonism in meditation that the real believers in free government mus | go for instruction.

In most places he attracts large crowds, and the money ecol- lected in one town enables him to go on to another. A good deal has been Gaid on this subject by way of suggesting that the great parties, both ot | which are said to be in sore need of funds, might follow his example, but | the main thing to be noted here is the fact that Socialism adopts the ind)- | Vidualistk policy of paying as it goes, while the parties of so-called individ- ualism await the appearance of some Lord Bountiful or some fat fryer who | will relieve them of the necessity of contributing anything. The financia, hardships complained ot by Republicans and Democrats are plainly enough due to two causes—fear of pubiicity on the part of favored interests and the @pathy of the people at large.

Fifty Great Love Stories of History By Albert Payson Terhune © @60oRG ¢eeeoewe OOOO NO. 44—NAPOLEON ITI. AND EUGENIE. HE love story of Napoleon III. and Bugente de Montijo has been called by some Frenchmen “the romance of an adventurer and an adven- turess.” For though the latter term is too harsh to apply (in its worst sense) to Eugenie, yet Napuleon Ill. merited the title of adventurer and far worse. When Napoicon the Great (Napoleon I.) was cryshed and the old Bourbon monarchy once more swayed France, there was a more or less strong party that still clamored for the restoration of the Bonapartes. Na- poleon’s next of kin, in succession, was his nephew, Louis Napoleon, known ater as Napoleon IIL, and nicknamed by his foes as “Napoieon the Little.” He was a sensationalist, a mountebank, a charlatan, a man whose wosl could never be relied on. Time and time again, as a young man, he made ridiculously useless efforts to persuade France to accept him as its ruler. de was laughed at as a failure and twice was thrown into jail. Later he escaped to England, where he was at one time so poor that he was glad to accept a job as special policeman. He crossed to Anierica, taught school tn New Jersey and ¥ot into trouble, near Bordentown, N. J., for sbooting a farmer's little pig which he mistook tor a rabbit. At last he was allowed to return io France.
