A deodand is “an nrtlclo which has proved the immediate end accidental occasion of the death of any reason able creature." This right was for hundreds of years enforced as a moanof swelling the royal exchequer and legally speaking, could still be enforced. If a man were killed, by being run over, the vehicle and its contents, us well as the horse, became the king's property. Tbe number of “reasonable creatures" (and. dogs might be in eluded by some within this category) run over by motors In England would keep the king hi automobiles until he would be obliged to construct many garages.

Tills rule, equally as arduous in actual and in intellectual life, may sene fur a whole distinction between great n, ss and meanness. It Is the harder because you will always find those who think they know what is your duty I letter than you know it. It Is easy in the world to live after the world's opinion; it Is easy in solitude to live after your own; hut the great man is lie who In the midst of the crowd keeps with perfect sweetness the independence of solitude.
