Show Moit Powerful Force In Nature. At dinner once, when he -was visiting visit-ing Sir Robort Peel at Drayton, a scientific sci-entific lady asked him the question: "Mr. Stephenson, what do you consider consid-er the most powerful force in Nature?" Na-ture?" "Oh," he replied In a gallant spirit, "I will soon answer that question; ques-tion; It Is the eye of a woman for the man who Iovcb her; for If a woman looks with affection on a young man and he should go to tho uttermost ends of the earth, the recollection of that look will bring him back; there Is no other force In Nature that could do that." After all It Is the human associations of a country that live longest in the memory, nnd drifting Into In-to legend becomes as historic and as little tlmeuorn ns the everlasting hills themselves. |
