diculously smooth surface of Bark
ers neck, while the young fellow
looked up curiously at the black eyes
SO close to his, which had a CLEAN
of amusement in them, as Barker
interpreted it; for Files was laugh
ing under his breath, yet so forcibly
as to make his hand shake a little.
"Say, Files" continued Barker,
"do you really like this sort of thing
shaving a fellow and-and all
that? What are you laughing at any
way? l don't e anything to laugh
at-unless," he added as an after
thought, cit be your own name"
Here Barker laughed himself.
"Who the deuce gave you such a
Christian, or, rather, unchristian
name as Razzin? 1t isn't American
or English. It isn't French or Ger
man or Italian. It's oriental. That's
what it is. Arabic, or something of
that sort. Razzin Files. Damned
if it doesn't make one think of an
old tool-chest, with broken scroll.
saws, pieces of wire, bits of leather
and black dust at the bottom"
He laughed aloud at the thought.
Files irrelevantly pulled out of his
pocket a letter, remarking briefly:
81 found it on the floor just out
side the presidents office to-day.
Read it."
"Why," exclaimed Barker, taking
the letter, "it is addressed to him.
What are you doing with it,"
cit is from my mother. Read it !"
was the persistent response.
Barker began reading, pausing for
a moment to caution Files about the
razor, the keen edge of which Files
was allowing to press, though ever
so lightly, against his neck, irritat-
ing him unaccountably. The letter
began:
My Dear Doctor: I have just received a
letter from Razzin which worries me a
little. AS you know, he was discharged
from the insane asylum entirely cured OF

since a great anxiety about him which
this letter Of his increases. You so kind
ly assured me that you would keep him
under your eye and see nat he was not
~overworked or overstrained mentally, that
I have had great hopes of his going
through the course without a recurrence
Of the dreadful symptoms which caused
US such acute misery. Certain xpres
sions in his last letter. however. have
made me very uneasy
Barker interrupted his reading
to stare at the dark face bending
over him and to repeat his %injunc.
ton to hold the razor away from his
neck.
81 want to see the white skin bet.
ter" said Files with a smile which
~exasperated Barker, who lifted hi
arm to push away the hand that held
the irritating steel.
Files name suddenly changed
in a way that p~aralyzed Barker
whose wrist was caught firmly
turned inward under the arm of thu
which accompanied it completed his
generalization.
"You see it." said Files, with q
nard and mirthless laugh.
"See what?" Barker managed to
utter.
@Yon see it in my eyes! YaH know
what it means! and there appeared
in the black orbs a look which haunt
ed Barker for many a month after
ward. He had never seen an insane
man. He had never seen murder in
carnate in the human eye, but he
recognized it now and could not
utter a word for the beating Of his
heart. =.

affinity there is between shining,
beautiful hard steel and white, soft
flesh? For Gods sake, don't get
pale that way it only makes your
skin whiterw
He was no longer looking at Bark
er's ashy face but at his neck,
against which the razor blade still
pressed.
Don't move your other hand!"
he commanded again. "It will be
the signal! Oh! what a beautiful
skin!" he muttered in a sort of &C.
stasy. "It is like white velvet, soft
and smooth. A white velvet robe
and a crimson scarf! The blood 10
waiting to burst through and make
the scarf" His hand shook vio-
lently.
Barker was no coward. It was all
over with him, as he thought, but
with a superhuman effort he steadied
himself.
"'Say, Files" he said, quietly.
"You think it's the bright red and
soft white that are SO. attractive, but
it isn't anything of the kind. The
most delightful sensation is to feel
the warm blood flowing over your
own skin, not somebody else's. Did
you ever try it?"
"No," said Files, duly; "it hurts
too much"
"No, it doesn't. You simply draw
the razor across your Owl throat
enough to start a few drops. You
know what the professor said yester-
day about pain and pleasure being
akin. It is the tickling small pain
which creates the intense thrill Of
delight"
Slowly the poor maniac lifted the
razor and carried it doubtfully to-
wards his own throat as if to try the
suggestion. 1t was a supreme chance,
and Barked leaped upward. catching
the arm of the mad student before
he could recover from his surprise.
A great gush of blood flooded Bark
er's face, binding his eyes for in his
effort to escape he had unwittingly
forced the sharp blade acros the
throat Of Files, cutting it from ear
to ear. Ere Barker could wriggle
entirely out of his chair the mailman
had fallen on him tearing ferociously
at his throat with his teeth. The
struggle was over in a moment and
when the door was thrown open by
an excited crowd attracted by the
noise both men lay inert upon the
floor, one of them dead.
When Barker recovered from his
swoon and told the story of his
dreadful experience he was believed
and justified by all; but he has never
been able to quite satisfy his con-
science on a single point connected
with his "sclose, shave" as he calls
it, with poorly assumed lightness:
"Was he morally responsible for the
tragedy that cost the life Of Razzin
Files because Of that last suggestion
he made to him?" 1t is a query that
constantly recurs to him and dis
surbs his dreams.

Self

By c. 7. DARCY.

in the formation of virtue. But it is not itself virtue.
But goodness includes selfdenial. When we contemplate the life
of any one who did his duty in spite of strong temptations or who made
great sacrifices for the sake of q good cause W regard him with the great
est admiration for his goodness. A man who was able from right motives
to dc a similar duty or to give equal assistance to the same good cause
without encountering temptation or making any sacrifice would be quite as
vrtuous; but his conduct would not stir the same feelings of admira-
ton, nor should we, with the same emphasis, call him good or great. A
will which is capable of sefdenisl is one which contains the potentiaity
of the highest virtue.
1t is impossible for the moral man to stand still, to reach a certain
level of goodness and rest content with it. To rest content with great
atanments is to fall. To cease to ascend is to begin to descend. For
activity is of the essence of spiritual existence. The moral situation
changes recurrently. And every new development makes a fresh call upon
the moral resources. Every group of circumstances has its good, and de-
mands the viii which is necessary to make that good actual. In many
cases. perhaps in most uses, there is no consciousness Of struggle, for the
institutions of society and the routine of life place duty before us
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1909-02-19

There is a old paradox, "Where there
is self-denial there is no virtue" The
meaning is plain. Virtue is the habit Of
choosing the good If this habit be sup
posed fully formed it is obvious that a
state must be reached in which the good is
chosen quite easily, without struggle, with
out self-denial. The ideally v%irtuous man
is one who never has to deny himself, for
his constant tendency is to choose the good
in every case. Self-denial is then not to
be considered as one Of the virtues. It is
a necessary element in every ~virtuous life
because it is one of the principal conditions

Lack of Social
ADVANTAGES a
Great Handicap
By JUSTICE DAVID J. BREWER.
United States Supreme Csur.

T is difficult at the present time to hold people to the farm
because of the lack of social advantages.
If we have a place of 100 acres, and another place
there of IO acres, social life becomes practically impossible
After a man has done a hard days work he does not want to
ride ten or twelve miles in order to attend q gathering of
friends and obtain some diversion.
When We consider this condition, it is not surprising that
there should be such a large drift toward the city. 1 am salts
