And Topping and hopping.
And humping and jumping,
And hitting and splitting,
And spilling and killing,
And running and stunning.
And struggling and juggling,
And rafting and battling.
And leaping and creeping.
And striking and hiking,
And whisking and frisking,

A wise clerk gave him 'The Vicar of Wakefield" He carefully translated 1t Into German and put his work away for six weeks. At the end of that time he translated his translation back into English and then made a searching comparison between hls version and that of Goldsmlth's original.

CAUCASIAN AND NEGRO.
They Are Fundamentally opPoSitS
 Extremes In Evolution.

Extremes In Evolution.
 The Caucasian has the subjective fac ulties we'll developed; the negro the ob- iectiye. The Caucasian, and more par ricularly the Anglo-Saxon, is dominant and domineering and possessed prima- rily with determination, will power, self control, self government and all the attributes of the subjective self, with a high development of the ethical and aesthetic faculties and great req Sopfng powers. The negro is in direct contrast by reason of certain lack of these powers, and great development of the objective qualities. The negro Is primarily affectiOnate, immensely emotional, then sensual, and, under provocation, passionate. There is love of outward show, of oStentation, of ap- probation. He loves melody and rude kind of poetry and SOnOrOuS language. There is undevelOped artistic power and taSte-peOroeS make good artisans and haudicraftSmen. They are deh- cieut in juGRment, In the formation of new ideas ,r-ssn existing facts, in de- vising hypoAr-ses and in making de- ductions In general They are initiative rather than original. inventive or con structive. There is instability of char acter Incident to lack of self control, especIsllv in connection with the sex. ual relation, and there is a lack of ortentation or recognition of position and condition of self and environment, evidenced In various ways, but by g peculiar "bumptiousness," so called by Professor RlackShear of Texas, this Is particularly noticeable.
 The white and the black races are antipodal then. in cardinal points. The one has large frontal region of the brain. the other a larger region behind; the one is subjective. the other Objec- tive: the one q great reasoner. the other -emlneutly emotional; the one domi- neerlug. out having great self control the other meek and submissive, but violent and lacking self control when the passions are aroused. tue one Il. very advanced race. the other q very backward one.
