127. (I.) The general good exists from the goods of use which individuals perform; and the goods of use that individuals perform subsist from the general good. They are called goods of use, because all goods which are of love to the neighbor or charity are uses, and all uses are goods. They are therefore in a word called goods of use. They are also called the fruits of use.
