SLAVERY OF COLONIAL DAYS

conceals the life of prehistoric people,
we should see that the servant prob

changeable trait of human nature
During the colonial period Of our
history, service was performed in the
main by two classes-the negro slave
and the indentured white servant,
writes Prof. Marcus w Jernegan in
Harper's Magazine. The white sew
ant, semislave, was more important
in the seventh century than even the
negro slave, in respect to both num-
bers and economic significance. Per-
haps the most pressing of the early
needs Of the colonists was for a GER
tain and adequs te supply of labor. 1t
was the white servants who supplied
this demand and made possible rap,
id economic development, particularly
Of the middle and southern colonies
In 1853 there were 1900 of these
semi-slaves in Virginia, composing
about one-sixth of the population,
while nearly two-tflirds of the immi-
grants to Pennsylvania during the
eighteenth century were white sery-
ants. Every other colony made great.
er or less use of them, and it is likely
that more than half a million persons
were of this class during the colonial
period.

r4agoaT Ne oQ.E TIE SIGN HOW TO PLACE TIE MIRROR
One should BE Hung In Dark Hall
Where IL viii Serve a Triple
Purpose.

Always place a mirror IN a dark
hall. If it can be so placed that it re-
fleets the opening into the living or
drawingroom, it will serve a triple pur-
pose--it will be a convenience TO the
guests and members of the family
when they are starting out, it will in
crease the light and it will make the
hall seem bigger.
In living room place several mir
rors, II the room is dark. Place them
In rather unexpected places. A long
narrow mirror can be hung length
wise, perhaps in a corner beside a
door Another mirror can be placed
on a wall opposite window and SO
will reflect the garden or trees or sea
or street and give the room apparent
" another window Another mirror
can be placed at such an angle that it
will not necessarily reflect the people
sitting about the fire. The object Of
living room mirrors is not to give re-
fsctions 81 the persons in the room
and such reflections are sometimes an.
noying.
In bedrooms and dressing rooms mir
rors cannot be too many. A pier glass
Is convenient, and especially desira-
BILE because it can be placed across g
ccrper Of the room or in some other
poxition which makes 1t Of decorative
value But far more practical in a
small room-and cheaper, too--is the
mirror fastened TO the door, It should
be held in place by the wooden panel,
