| to go to work he was u little late, aud
Mr. Abrams asked him why he was late
and told him that he would have to
charge him for lost time. AS he turned
| away and staltcd toward The house the
negro hit him on the head with n rock
crushing his skull behind the ear. Mr..
Abrams carried no weapons. He lived
until about S:3O o'clock.
Two parties were organized for pur-
suit, one OF them composed OF men from
the town. Feeling ran very high, and
there was talk Of lynching the negro if
caught. But when captured that after
noon about sixteen miles from the home
OF the murdered man, friends OF Mr.
Abrams advised against the lynching,
ana all the par les knowing that he
would be convicted of his crime and
punishment meted out 10 him through
the channel Of the law, he was brought
to Newherry and placed in jail

 When I approached the painted house, en my way hcn.ewa-a. :As sss=ss sss=s old collie comes running out again. barking. This time however. he takes but one sniff. He has made a mis- take, and realizes 1t at once. ''Oh. ex- cuse me-" he says, quite plainly. 1T didn't recognize you. You're the same old codger. ought to have known" And he Is so confused and ashamed that he runs away withaut waiting to make up.
 It is a great modification to gen. tlemanly dog to find himself at fault in this way. I remember another collie, much younger than this one. with whom once had minute or two of friendly intercourse. Then. months afterward, I went again by the house where he lived, and he came dashing out with all ferceness, as if he would rend me in pieces. I let him come. (there was nothing else to do. or noth. ing else worth doing) but the instant his nose struck me he saw his erTor. Then, in a flash, he dropped nat on the ground and literally licked my shoes. There was no attitude abJece enough to express the depth, of his humiliation. And then. like the dog of this morning. he jumped up and ran with all speed back to his AoSes etep.

l leys of Savoy. Piedmont and Valais, is itself in large part a matter of selec- | tion. The boy with the goitre is ex- empt from military service. He re- mains at home to become the father of the family It is said that at one time the Government of Savoy furnished the children of that region with lozenges of iodine, which were supposed to check the abnormal swelling of the thyroid gland. known as the goitre This dis ease is Q frequent cause of idiocy or cretinism, as well as its almost con- stant accompaniment. It is said the mothers gave the lozenges only to the girls, preferring that the boys should grow up to the goitre rather than to the army. The causes of goitre are ob- scure. perhaps depending on poor nu- triton, or on mineral substances in the water. The disease itself is not hered- itary so far as known, but susceptibil- ity to 1t certainly is. By taking away for outside service those who are re- sistant, the heredity of tendency to goitrous swelling is fastened on those who remain.
 Like these mothers in Savoy was mother in Germany. Not long since friend of the writer. passing through Franconian forest, found young man lying senseless by the way. It was young recruit for the army who had got into some trouble with his com rades. They had beaten him and left him lying with broken head. Carried to his home, his mother fell on her knees and thanked God. for this injury had saved him from the army.

 As for the author of Uncle Toms Cabin" her syntax was such a snare to her that it sometimes needed the combined skill of all the proofreaders and the assistant editor to extricate her. Of course, nothing was eyer writ ten into her work, but in changes of diction, in correction of solecisms, in transposition of phrases, the text was largely rewritten on the margin of her proofs. The soul of her art was pre- sent, but the form was so often absent that when 1t was clothed on anew 1t would have been hard to say whose cut the garment was of in many places. In fact, the proofreading of The Att lantic Monthly was something almost fearfully scrupulous and perfect. The proofs were first read by the under proofreaders in the printing office: then the head reader passed them to me perfectly clean as to typography, with his own abundant and most intelligent comments on the literature. and then I read them, making what changes I chose and verifying every quotation, every date, every geogra phical and biographical name, every foreign word te the last accent, every technical and scientific term. Where 1t was possi- blc or tall desirable the proof was next submitted to the author When it came back to me revised it, accept ing or rejecting the authors judgment, according as she was entitled by her ability and knowledge or not to have them. The proof now went to the printers for correction; they sent it again to the head reader. who care fully revised it and returned it again to me. I read it, a second time and 1t was again corrected. After this it was revised in the office and sent to the stereotyper. from whom it came to the head reader for a last revision in the plates

 Indiscriminate charity has been a fruitful cause of the survival of the unfit. To kill the strong and feed the week is to provide for a progeny of weakness. It is a French writer again who says that charity creates the mis- cry she tries to relieve; she can never relieve half the misery she creates
 There Is today in Aosta in Northern Italy, an asylum for the care and cul- ture of idiots. The cretin ard the goitre are assembled there. and the marriage of those who can not take care of themselves insures the preser- vation of their strains of unfitness. By caring devotedly for those who in the stress of life could not live alone for a week and by caring for their children, generation after generation, the good people of Aosta have produced a new breed of men, who cannot even feed themselves. These are incompe- tent through selection of degradation. while the man of the hoe" is prima- lively ineffective.
