	This	island	imports,	from	all	nations,	annually,	provisions	and	general	merchandise	to	the
	amount	of	about	$1,000,000,	and	exports	articles	to	the	amount	of	about	$800,000.
	The	heavy	duties	on	flour	and	other	bread-stuffs,	nearly	all	of	which	are	imported	from	the
	United	States,	have	become	a	fruitful	theme	of	discussion	between	the	inhabitants	and	the
	government	of	this	island.	It	is	very	probable	that	this	discussion	may	lead	to	a	reduction	of
	these	duties,	the	result	of	which	will	be	a	large	incr.ea.se	in	the	export	of	these	articles	from	the
	United	States,	and	a	corresponding	augmentation	in	our	trade	with	that	island.
	The	present	duty	on	flour	in	Antigua	is	1	20	per	barrel	of	196	pounds,	or	over	600	per
	cent,	higher	than	in	the	mother	country.
	Port	regulations,	harbor	dues,	&c.,	differ	but	little	from	those	of	the	other	islands.

	After	her	guilt	is,	as	he	thinks,	proved,	he	has	no	word	of	affection
	for	her.	She	is	a	convicted	culprit,	to	be	sacrificed	to	his	sense	of
	justice.]
	"	Be	sure	of	it	;	give	me	the	ocular	proof:
	Or,	by	the	worth	of	mine	eternal	soul,
	Thou	hadst	been	better	have	been	born	a	dog
	Than	answer	my	waked	wrath.
	Make	me	to	see	't,	or,	at	the	least,	so	prove	it,
	That	the	probation	bear	no	hinge,	nor	loop
	To	hang	a	doubt	on	;	or	woe	upon	thy	life	!"
	lago,	therefore,	had	no	choice	but	to	go	forward.	He	was	evidently
	not	prepared	for	this	furious	outburst	;	and	we	may	acquit	him	of
	hypocrisy	when	he	prays	Othello	to	let	her	live.	But	Cassio	must
	die	:
	"	He	hath	a	daily	beauty	in	his	life
	That	makes	me	ugly."
	A	more	urgent	reason	immediately	suggests	itself:
	"	And	besides,	the	Moor
	May	unfold	me	to	him;	there	stand	I	in	much	peril.
	No	he	must	die.
	The	death	of	Desdemona	involves	that	of	Roderigo	:

	He	calls	me	to	a	restitution	large
	Of	gold	and	jewels,	that	I	bobb'd	from	him
	As	gifts	to	Desdemona.
	It	must	not	be."
	Here	is	the	direct	agency	of	necessity.	He	must	remove	these	men.
	Shortly	after,	to	silence	the	clamorous	testimony	of	his	wife,	he	must
	kill	her.	He	is	doomed	to	blood.	[[As	some	other	considerations

	THE	SON	TO	HIS	MOTHER.
	BY	SAMUEL	LOVER,	ESQ.
	THERE	was	a	place	in	childhood	that	I	remember	well,
	And	there,	a	voice	of	sweetest	tone	bright	fairy	tales	did	tell	;
	And	gentle	words	and	fond	embrace	were	given	with	joy	to	me,
	When	I	was	in	that	happy	place,	upon	my	mother's	knee.
	When	fairy	tales	were	ended,	"	Good	night	!''	she	softly	said,
	And	kiss'd	and	laid	me	down	to	sleep	within	my	tiny	bed	;
	And	holy	words	she	taught	me	there,	methinks	I	yet	can	see
	Her	angel	eyes,	as	close	I	knelt	beside	my	mother's	knee.
	In	the	sickness	of	my	childhood,	the	perils	of	my	prime,
	The	sorrows	of	my	riper	years,	the	cares	of	ev'ry	time	;
	When	doubt	or	danger	weigh'd	me	down,	then	pleading,	all	for	me,
	It	was	a	fervent	pray'r	to	Heaven	that	bent	my	mother's	knee	!
	And	can	I	this	remember,	and	e'er	forget	to	prove
	The	glow	of	holy	gratitude	the	fulness	of	my	love	?
	When	thou	art	feeble,	mother,	come	rest	thy	arm	on	me,
	And	let	thy	cherish	'd	child	support	the	aged	mother's	knee	!

	BERLIN,	February	9tk,	1853.
	I	have	seen	Beuth	once	more,	to	remind	him	of	his
	ancient	friendship	with	L.	His	opinion	is,	that	it
	would	be	advantageous	for	the	family	to	separate	the
	architectural	subjects	from	what	belongs	to	landscape
	merely,	and	also	to	leave	out	the	engravings.	Only	the
	architectural	drawings	were	of	any	use	to	his	institute,
	and	if	the	family	wanted	the	money,	he	would	be
	enabled	to	purchase	to	the	amount	of	some	hundred
	Thalers	(perhaps	four	to	five	hundred?).	However	un-
	inviting	such	an	offer	may	be,	I	thought	it	my	duty,
	dear	friend,	to	impart	it	to	you.	In	case	of	acceptance,
	Beuth	wishes	to	deal	forthwith	with	some	agent,	who
	should	come	and	see	him	in	his	house.
	May	the	sun	of	gentle	spring	give	you	both	warmth,
	cheerfulness,	and	vigor	!	The	"Byzantine	empire"
	(ours	I	mean)	is	seriously	divided	into	two	parties	about
	"	Bunsen's	Psalm	Book,"	and	"	Eisner's	Collection	of
	Hymns	!	"	The	military	power	and	the	adjutants	are
	in	favor	of	the	"	Collection	of	Hymns."	As	for	myself,
	I	have	not	yet	made	up	my	mind.

	WHAT	IS	LEFT
	BUT	MUCH	as	there	is	gone	of	life,	and	of
	its	joys	very	much	remains	;	very	much	in
	earnest,	and	very	much	more	in	hope.	Still
	you	see	visions,	and	you	dream	dreams,	of
	the	times	that	are	to	come.
	Your	home	and	heart	are	left;	within
	that	home,	the	old	Bible	holds	its	wonted
	place,	which	was	the	monitor	of	your	boy-
	hood	;	and	now,	more	than	ever,	it	prompts
	those	reverent	reaches	of	the	spirit,	which
	go	beyond	even	the	track	of	dreams.
	That	cherished	Madge,	the	partner	of	your
	life	and	joy,	still	lingers,	though	her	step	is	/^
	feeble,	and	her	eyes	are	dimmed;	not,	as
	once,	attracting	you	by	any	outward	show
	of	beauty	;	your	heart	glowing	through	the
	memory	of	a	life	of	joy,	needs	no	such	stim-
	ulant	to	the	affections.	Your	hearts	are	knit
	together	by	a	habit	of	growth,	and	a	una-
	nimity	of	desire.	There	is	less	to	remind	of
	the	vanities	of	earth,	and	more	to	quicken

THE	DIARY	OF	MY	HONEYMOON
	we	went	out	in	a	motor-car	to	Versailles,	and	that
	was	interesting.	But	it	was	very	cold,	and	I	felt
	quite	frozen	when	I	got	back,	and	Sir	Lionel	looked
	at	me	as	if	he	thought	me	very	ugly*
	So	I	was!
	In	the	evenings	he	takes	me	to	horrid	places	that
	I	don't	like,	music-halls	and	cafes	where	they	sing.
	They	are	crowded	and	stuffy,	and	full	of	the	most
	horrid-looking	people.	Women	with	painted	faces,
	who	stare	at	Sir	Lionel	and	even	talk	to	him,	and
	who	laugh	at	me.
	And	men	who	all	look	like	Sir	Lionel,	except	the
	Englishmen,	who	sometimes	look	at	me	as	if	they
	were	surprised	to	see	me	there.
	I	am	surprised	myself,	and	so,	I	think,	would
	Papa	be	if	he	were	here.
	I	told	Sir	Lionel	yesterday	evening	at	dinner	that
	I	didn't	like	the	French	idea	of	gaiety,	though	I	had
	heard	so	much	about	it,	and	he	laughed,	and	said	I
	need	not	go	to	any	more	theatres	unless	I	liked.
	I	think,	though,	I	might	like	to	go	to	a	proper

CHAPTEK	I
	REFOJRMS	:	CATHOLIC	USAGES
	WHEN	a	well-graced	actor	quits	the	scene,	the	eye,
	we	are	told,	settles	but	idly	on	him	who	enters	next.
	There	was	naturally	much	speculation	in	the	king
	dom	as	to	who	was	to	succeed	the	late	accomplished
	Prelate.	In	the	Catholic	world,	however,	there	was
	but	little	doubt	that	the	choice	would	fall	on	one
	who	had	long	been	his	cherished	friend	and	intimate
	counsellor,	the	Bishop	of	Salford,	one	of	the	same
	school	of	policy,	and	of	the	same	sympathies.	Any
	one	then	taking	stock,	as	it	is	called,	of	the
	Hierarchical	body	and	of	their	qualifications,	must
	have	come	to	the	conclusion	that	Dr.	Vaughan	of
	Salford	was	the	best	fitted	and	the	best	equipped	for
	the	office,	for	the	reason	that	his	gifts	were	the	most
	conspicuous.	Accordingly,	in	April,	1892,	he	was
	named	to	the	See.
	Cardinal	Vaughan	comes	of	a	well-known	old
	Catholic	family,	the	Vaughans	of	Hertfordshire,	and

with	wooden	bottoms	and	steel	sides,	and	it	is	also	the	custom	in	certain
	districts	to	use	steel	plates	of	much	thinner	gauge	than	that	employed
	elsewhere	for	the	purpose.	To	caulk	such	vats	is	impossible,	and	they	are
	therefore	kept	tight	by	a	liberal	use	of	paraffin	paint,	a	dressing	of	which
	takes	up	any	"	weeping	"	as	soon	as	this	starts.	Generally	American	practice
	also	takes	first	place	in	the	arrangements	for	the	conveying	of	ore	residues,
	ashes,	&c.,	and	for	the	automatic	and	rapid	cooling	of	roasted	ore	prior	to
	cyanide	treatment.
	Fine	crushing	is	performed	almost	invariably	by	rolls.	The	ball	mills
	which	play	so	important	a	part	in	Australia	and	elsewhere	do	not	appear	to
	have	found	favour	amongst	American	millmen.	On	the	other	hand,	with
	roasted	ore	such	fine	crushing	is	seldom	necessary	as	is	required	in	the	raw
	treatment	of	pyritic	or	telluride	material.
	The	following	outline	of	the	"	Argall	"	plant	at	Cripple	Creek	is	typical
	of	American	practice	:
	Large	Gate's	crusher.
	Small	Gate's	crusher	to	i-inch	cube.
	Crushing	rolls	to	4-mesh.
	Conveyor	to	storage	bins.
	Tubular	dryers	(the	ore	heated	to	300	Fahr.).

	his	men.	He	directed	a	part	of	them	to	extend	themselves	in	the	wood
	around	the	small	neck,	or	peninsula,	of	the	portage,	whence	alone	escape
	was	possible.	Both	parties	fought	with	bravery	;	the	Foxes	with	despera
	tion.	But	they	were	outnumbered,	overpowered,	and	defeated.	Some
	attempted	to	descend	the	rapids,	and	were	lost.	A	few	only	escaped.
	But	the	Chippewas	paid	dearly	for	their	victory.	Wabojeeg	was	slightly
	wounded	in	the	breast	:	his	brother	was	killed.	Many	brave	warriors	fell.
	It	was	a	most	sanguinary	scene.	The	tradition	of	this	battle	is	one	of	the
	most	prominent	and	wide	spread	of	the	events	of	their	modern	history.
	I	have	conversed	with	more	than	one	chief,	wh	dated	his	first	military
	honours	in	youth,	to	this	scene.	It	put	an	end	to	their	feud	with	the
	Foxes,	who	retired	from	the	intermediate	rice	lakes,	and	fled	down	the
	Wisconsin.	It	raised	the	name	of	the	Chippewa	leader,	to	the	acme	of
	his	renown	among	his	people	:	but	Wabojeeg,	as	humane	as	he	was
	brave,	grieved	over	the	loss	of	his	people	who	had	fallen	in	the	action.
	This	feeling	was	expressed	touchingly	and	characteristically,	in	a	war	song,
	which	he	uttered	after	this	victory	which	has	been	preserved	by	the
	late	Mr.	Johnston	of	St.	Mary's,	in	the	following	stanzas.
	On	that	day	when	our	heroes	lay	low	lay	low,
	On	that	day	when	our	heroes	lay	low,
	I	fought	by	their	side,	and	thought	ere	I	died,
	Just	vengeance	to	take	on	the	foe,
	Just	vengeance	to	take	on	the	foe.	*
	On	that	day,	when	our	chieftains	lay	dead	lay	dead,
	On	tha*	day	when	our	chieftains	lay	dead,
	I	fo^gnt	hand	to	hand,	at	the	head	of	my	baml.
	And	here,	on	my	breast,	have	1	bled,
	And	here,	on	my	breast,	have	I	bled.
	Our	chiefs	shall	return	no	more	no	more,
	Our	chiefs	shall	return	no	more,
	Nor	their	brothers	of	war,	who	can	show	scar	for	scar,
	Like	women	their	fates	shall	deplore	deplore,
	Like	women	their	fate	shall	deplore.
	Five	winters	in	hunting	we'll	spend	we'll	spend,
	Five	winters	in	hunting	we'll	spend,
	Till	our	youth,	grown	to	men,	we'll	to	war	lead	again,
	And	our	days,	like	our	fathers,	we'll	end,
	And	our	days,	like	our	fathers,	we'll	end.
	It	is	the	custom	of	these	tribes	to	go	to	war	in	the	spring	and
	summer,	which	are,	not	o^y	comparatively	seasons	of	leisure	with	them.

	THE	WORLD'S	LEADING	MUNICIPAL	PUBLICATION
	DATA	AND	DETAILED	INFORMATION	ON
	ROAD	BUILDING
	A	vast	amount	of	this	kind	of	data	and	information	is	on	file	in	the	offices	of
	Engineering	Publishing	Company,	and	it	is	at	your	disposal	as	a	subscriber	to
	MUNICIPAL	ENGINEERING.	Our	corps	of	editors	have	spent	many	years	in
	compiling	this	data,	and	it	covers	practically	all	the	experience	that	has	been	gained
	from	years	of	highway	building	and	street	paving.
	You	can	be	supplied	with	any	kind	of	data	that	you	ask	for.	Your	requests	will
	be	given	the	immediate	personal	attention	of	editors	whose	sole	work	is	to	compile
	data	in	answer	to	inquiries.
	This	service	is	included	with	a	year's	subscription	to	MUNICIPAL	ENGI-
	NEERING.	This	publication	is	now	in	its	24th	year.	It	was	the	pioneer	in	the	street
	paving	field,	having	been	the	first	magazine	to	treat	from	a	practical	standpoint	the
	improvement	of	the	streets	of	municipalities.
	It	is	now	exerting	an	equally	wide	influence	in	the	betterment	of	roads.
	You	will	find	its	articles	the	most	authoritative	published.	They	are	practical
	in	every	way,	showing	the	best	and	simplest	methods	of	arriving	at	maximum	results.
	Theory	is	eliminated,	and	supplanted	by	the	practical	knowledge	of	men	who	have

	And	the	last	two	years	of	high	school?
	The	last	two	years	we	were	in	Dayton,	Ohio,	and	I	went	to
	Steele	High	School,	which	was	right	downtown.	There
	were	interesting	people,	interesting	teachers.	I	think	one
	of	my	most	interesting	teachers	was	a	Dr.	August	Foer-
	ster	who	was	supposed	to	teach	physics,	but	he	never
	taught	any	physics,	because	he	was	a	paleontologist.	He
	had	a	Ph.D.	in	paleontology.	Instead	of	teaching	physics,
	he	d	talk	about	science	generally,	much	of	it	in	biology,
	which	fascinated	me.	He	expected	that	his	class	could
	learn	any	physics	they	needed	out	of	the	textbook.
	Hughes:
	"Were	you,	at	that	time,	especially	interested	in	the	sci
	ences?
	Born:
	Through	Dr.	Foerster,	yes.
	Hughes:
	Had	you	decided	anything	about	what	you	wanted	to	do
	eventually?
	Born:
	No.
	Hughes:	Did	you	do	reading	on	your	own?
	Born:	Yes.	In	our	family	we	were	all	great	readers.	We	kept	the
	public	libraries	busy.
	Hughes:
	Did	you	have	any	particular	interests	or	preferences	in
	reading?

	the	stretch	with	the	rest	of	the	bunch
	without	the	whip.
	So	when	I	noticed	that	every	time
	I	looked	around	the	room	I'd	catch
	that	old	fairy	giving	me	the	far-away
	gaze	I	didn't	know	whether	to	puff	up
	and	get	chesty,	or	hustle	for	my	coat
	and	my	top-piece	and	go	home.
	My	next	partner	was	a	giggler.
	Say,	boys	!	those	giggling	dames

	I	used	to	think	that	a	girl	giggled

	on	a	dish	containing	some	dainty	food.	Click	!	The
	cook	heard	it,	and	looked	round.	Ah	!	he	caught
	the	Crow,	and	plucked	all	the	feathers	out	of	his
	head,	all	but	one	tuft;	he	powdered	ginger	and
	cummin,	mixed	it	up	with	buttermilk,	and	rubbed
	it	well	all	over	the	bird	s	body.
	"	That	s	for	spoiling	my	master	s	dinner	and
	making	me	throw	i	4	away!"	said	he,	and	threw
	him	into	his	basket.	Oh,	how	it	hurt	!
	By	and	by	the	Pigeon	came	in,	and	saw	the	Crow
	lying	there,	making	a	great	noise.	He	made	great
	game	of	him,	and	repeated	a	verse	of	poetry	:
	"	Who	is	this	tufted	crane	I	see
	Lying	where	he	s	no	right	to	be?
	Come	out!	iny	friend,	the	crow	is	near,
	And	he	may	do	you	harm,	I	fear!"
	To	this	the	Crow	answered	with	another	:
	"	No	tufted	crane	am	I	no,	no!
	I	am	nothing	but	a	greedy	crow.
	I	would	not	do	as	I	was	told,
	So	now	I	m	plucked,	as	you	behold."
	And	the	Pigeon	rejoined	with	a	third	verse	:
	"	You	ll	come	to	grief	again,	I	know
	It	is	your	nature	to	do	so;
	If	people	make	a	dish	of	meat,
	Tis	not	for	little	birds	to	eat."

	COLERIDGE.
	DESPITE	all	Coleridge	s	articles	for	the	London	papers
	and	reviews,	and	the	poems	he	was	continually	writing
	and	sending	to	any	paper	that	would	accept	them,	he
	was	scarcely	able	to	provide	the	necessaries	of	life	for
	his	little	family.	He	was	invited	by	a	congregation	at
	Shrewsbury	to	preach	for	them.	His	ability	and	deep
	scholarship	were	well	known,	and	such	requests	were
	not	infrequent.	William	Hazlitt,	rising	at	daylight	and
	walking	ten	miles	to	hear	him,	thus	describes	the
	young	enthusiast	of	twenty-five,	who,	"	in	his	ordinary
	blue	coat	and	breeches,	with	no	ceremony	of	vest
	ments,"	stood	up	to	preach	:
	"	Mr.	Coleridge	gave	out	the	text	:	He	departed
	again	into	a	mountain,	Himself	alone?	As	he	gave	out

CHAPTER	XVI
	ANNIHILATION
	THE	wind	had	already	raised	waves	on	the	sur-
	face	of	the	lake,	which	rendered	it	dangerous	for
	the	most	skillful	to	venture	upon	it.
	Alfredo	did	not	hesitate.
	He	bent	to	his	paddle,	feeling	that	every	minute
	now	might	decide	their	fate.
	A	small	tornado	sent	the	mist	flying	in	their
	faces,	and	swerved	the	boat	so	far	around	that,	be-
	fore	they	could	prevent	it,	the	bow	was	driven
	against	the	sand	on	the	beach.
	Undismayed,	however,	Alfredo	made	another
	start,	and	soon	had	the	canoe	well	out	upon	the
	lake.
	As	before,	he	bent	all	his	strength	and	skill.
	From	the	moment	they	left	the	Haunted	Island
	the	storm	seemed	to	increase	in	violence	and	fury.
	The	frail	craft	was	tossed	up	and	down	like	an

	Yes.
	Well,	then,	if	the	Buddha's	alms-rounds
	be	relic-shrines,	parks,	etc.,	therefore	assuredly
	it	ought	to	be	said	that	the	Lord	Buddha	stood

	ought	not	to	be	said	that	the	Lord	Buddha

	Yes.

	and	enlightened	at	the	root	of	the	Bo-tree	?
	Was	not	the	wheel	of	the	Religion	set	rolling

	Yes.
	Well,	then,	it	assuredly	follows	that	the

HR:	Business	or	tourists	or	what	have	you.
	KM:	You	say	it	took	you	three	weeks	to	get	there.	Where	did	you	dock	or
	arrive?
	HR:	Well,	we	docked	at	Yokohama	and	Mother	decided	that	she	wanted	to	get
	to	Shanghai	in	a	big	hurry,	so	she	cancelled	the	rest	of	the	trip	on	that
	boat,	and	we	went	by	train	across	Japan	to	Nagasaki;	and	we	picked	up
	another	boat	that	was	going	to	leave	a	day	later,	and	that	got	us	into
	Shanghai	two	days	ahead	of	time,	and	Daddy	wasn't	there.
	KM:	He	was	expecting	you.
	HR:	Two	days	later.
	KM:	So,	you	were	two	days	early.	What	did	you	do?
	HR:	Well,	we	went	to	the	hotel,	the	Astor	House	Hotel,	-	:	and	Mother	booked	a
	room	and	she	asked,	you	know.	"No,	he	hadn't	come	yet.	He	was	coming."
	Then	we	went	in	to	our	rooms,	and	Mother	decided	we	better	have	tea,	so	we
	had	tea.	I	think	this	was	the	next	day,	and	we	were	so	thrilled.	We	learned
	a	couple	of	Chinese	words	and	thought	we	were	just	wonderful.	And	somebody
	knocked	at	the	door	and	so	we	all	said,	"Li,	Li.	Come	in."	And	the	door
	opened	and	it	was	Daddy.	And	he'd	come	early	to	get	a	shave	and	a	new	suit
	of	clothes	or	something,	and	he	went	to	sign	in	and	he	signed	right	under
	Mother.
	KM:	That	was	purely	coincidence.
	HR:	Yeah.	He	came	a	little	early,	and	Mother	came	too	early.
	KM:	Oh	my	word.

	in	fact	upon	the	green,	under	the

198	The	Empire	Review
	on	the	just	and	firm	basis	of	unquestioned	British	supremacy,	one
	vote	one	value,	and	equal	rights	for	all	civilised	men,	there	can	be
	little	doubt	that	with	a	bound	South	Africa	will	take	her	rightful
	place	as	one	of	the	greatest	of	the	great	British	dominions	beyond
	the	seas.	There	will	then	be	no	room	for	the	intrigues	of	the
	Afrikander	Bond,	no	place	for	the	exploitation	of	racial	hatred,
	no	opportunity	for	enervating	and	cramping	dualism	;	and	Briton
	and	Boer	will	not	only	feel	able,	but	will	feel	bound,	to	work
	together	for	the	good	of	what	will	then	be	in	very	truth	their
	common	country.
	This	is	the	spirit	which	Mr.	Kipling,	with	his	unerring	insight,
	puts	into	the	heart	of	his	South	African	"	settler	"	after	the	peace
	of	1902	:
	Here,	in	a	large	and	a	sunlit	land,
	Where	no	wrong	bites	to	the	bone,
	I	will	lay	my	hand	in	my	neighbour's	hand,
	And	together	we	will	atone
	For	the	set	folly	and	the	red	breach
	And	the	black	waste	of	it	all,
	Giving	and	taking	counsel	each
	Over	the	cattle-kraal.
	And	what	higher	ideal	could	there	be	?

	When	men	saw	Sakko,	the	Lord	of	the

	[i.	e.	Whose	attendant	student	is	he	?]

	It	is	doubtless	hypercriticism	to	observe	that

	Hughes:
	For	example,	when	I	was	a	senior	in	college,	I	said	one
	time	at	Christmas,	"Our	close	friends	are	going	to	Russia
	to	visit	their	uncle,	the	American	ambassador,	and	want
	us	to	join	them	in	Europe."	That	was	in	1936.	And	my	sis
	ter	says,	Tes,	we	could	go	to	Spain	while	they	are	in	Rus
	sia."	And	my	mother	says,	"All	right,	why	don	t	you	do	it?"
	So	we	did.
	Hughes:
	Was	some	of	this	because	it	was	her	money,	or	was	she
	given	this	prerogative	by	your	father?
	Born:
	It	was	both.	Money	wasn	t	all	that	free	at	that	time,	but
	she	could	make	it	stretch.	So	she	could	do	what	then
	other	people	couldn	t	do.	We	had	a	solid	financial	back
	ground,	but	not	plush.
	Hughes:
	It	sounds	as	though	she	made	most	of	the	decisions,
	about	the	upbringing	of	the	children	anyway.
	Born:
	I	think	she	did.
	Hughes:
	Born:
	Was	your	father	handling	the	business	side?
	Well,	he	was	less	aggressive	as	a	personality,	very	much
	so.	He	was	always	very	tied	down	with	his	job	motivations.
	He	was	not	as	active	within	the	family	as	my	mother	was.
	Hughes:
	Did	this	freedom	in	respect	to	what	you	could	do	also
	apply	to	behavior?	What	about	discipline?
	Born:
	Oh,	we	were	expected	to	behave	responsibly	and	under
	stood	an	underlying	family	discipline.	These	were
	matters	we	didn	t	really	talk	about,	except	with	respect	to
	drinking	alcoholic	beverages.	Alcoholic	beverages	were
	absolutely	taboo.	That	s	the	only	restriction	that	we	ever

THE	PROFESSOR.	73
	At	the	annual	dinner	of	the	Phi	Beta	Kappa
	Society,	in	1843,	Doctor	Holmes	read	the	fine
	poem	entitled	Terpsichore.
	Three	years	later	he	delivered	Urania,	A
	Rhyme	Lesson	before	the	Boston	Mercantile
	Library	Association.	"To	save	a	question	that
	is	sometimes	put,"	remarks	the	poet,	"	it	is
	proper	to	say	that	in	naming	these	two	poems
	after	two	of	the	Muses,	nothing	more	was	in
	tended	than	a	suggestion	of	their	general	char
	acter	and	aim."

	These	mills	will	take	material	of	almost	any	size	up	to	6-in.	cubes,	but

	From	internal	evidence	it	is	clearly	shown	that	the	play	was	written

	The	question	of	authorship	is	debatable	:	scholars	must	therefore

	HR:	No,	that	was	later	in	Tsingtao.	I	really	practiced	hard.	But	I	only
	took	lessons	in	the	States.	That's	when	I	was	six,	six	to	seven.	I	had
	about	a	year	of	lessons	before	we	went	to	China.
	KM:	Was	it	a	big	house?	Do	you	remember	it	in	your	mind's	eye	as	a	big
	house?
	HR:	Yes,	it	had	an	upstairs	and	the	bedrooms	were	all	upstairs.	Mother	and
	Daddy's	bedroom	was	in	the	front,	and	then	there	were	three	bedrooms,	and	a
	bath	and	a	half	upstairs.
	KM:	What	about	downstairs?	Did	it	have	a	parlor?
	HR:	Yes,	you	came	in	to	a	little	entry	hall	and	then	there	was	a	nice	living
	room	with	a	fireplace	and	then	there	were	sliding	doors	into	the	dining	room
	and	it	had	a	Tiffany	lamp.	And	over	the	mantelpiece	in	the	living	room	was
	the	doe	that	Mother	had	shot	by	mistake,	and	Daddy	had	the	head	mounted	for
	her	and	we	took	it	to	China.
	KM:	How	did	she	shoot	that	by	mistake?
	HR:	Well,	she	thought	she	was	getting	a	deer.	You	know	you're	not	allowed,
	supposedly,	to	get	does.	She	thought	she	was	getting	a	buck	and	the	doe	got
	in	the	way.	But	she	was	a	very	good	hunter	and	she	used	to	do	a	lot	of
	hunting	with	Daddy.
	KM:	Did	you	go	to	school	in	Tacoma?

	KM:	Was	that	a	public	school?

	spherical,	and	either	cream	coloured,	yellow,	greenish,	or
	black.
	Preparation.	In	China	the	oil	is	extracted	by	soaking
	the	beans	in	water,	crushing,	and	afterwards	.pressing	in
	wooden	presses,	the	yield	being	about	12	to	13	per	cent.	;	the
	oil	is	also	extracted	in	Europe	by	the	usual	hydraulic	press.
	Properties.	The	oil	is	of	a	pale	yellow	colour,	slight	not
	unpleasant	odour	of	the	bean,	and	an	agreeable	taste.
	The	constants	of	the	oil	are	as	follows	:
	Specific	gravity	at	15	C.	.	.	.	.	.	0-9222	to	0-9279
	Solidifying-point	-	8	to	-	15
	Saponification	value	190'6	to	192
	Iodine	value	124	to	143
	Refractive	index	at	40	C	1-4680
	Maumene	test	87	to	88	0.
	Hehner	value	95*5
	The	insoluble	fatty	acids	had	the	following	characters	:

	Melting-point	26	to	29	C.
	Refractive	index	at	27	-5	C	1-465
	Iodine	value	122
	Uses.	For	alimentary	purposes,	also	in	the	manufacture
	of	margarine,	soap,	and	candles,	varnishes	and	printing	ink.
	The	oil	is	not	very	satisfactory	for	paint	purposes,	as	it	dries

	"The	one	I	hit!"
	Did	you	ever	meet	one	of	those	fel-

	then	smashes	into	seven	balls	and
	claims	everything	that	drops	?
	Don't	they	jolt	you?
	By	this	time	Thirsty	Bill	had	all	his

	"	Can	shu	play	com'nashun	on	zat

	That	there	is	one	fate	for	all	:
	And	that,	although	the	heart	of	the	sons	of	men	is
	full	of	evil,
	And	madness	is	in	their	hearts	through	life,
	Yet,	after	it,	they	go	to	the	dead	;
	4	For	who	is	exempted	?
	To	all	the	living	there	is	hope,
	For	a	living	dog	is	better	than	a	dead	lion	;
	5	For	the	living	know	that	they	shall	die,
	But	the	dead	know	not	anything;
	And	there	is	no	more	any	compensation	to	them,
	For	the	very	memory	of	them	is	gone	:
	6	Their	love,	too,	no	less	than	their	hatred	and	rivalry,
	hath	perished	;
	And	there	is	no	part	for	them	in	ought	that	is	done
	under	the	sun.
	7	Go,	then,	eat	thy	bread	with	gladness,
	And	drink	thy	wine	with	a	merry
	heart,
	Since	God	hath	accepted	thy	works	:
	8	Let	thy	garments	be	always	white	;
	Let	no	perfume	be	lacking	to	thy	head	:
	from	the	common	fate,	not	that	the	foolish	and	reckless	are
	exposed	to	it.	The	text	may	be	corrupt;	but	Ginsburg	is

	If	you	will	come	to-night
	Twere	well	to	start.	We	have	a	longish	flight
	To	our	good	cavern.
	LUCIFER
	Not	yet.	It	is	not	late.
	Hermes,	perhaps,	will	come	to-day.	Tis	soon,
	But	he	was	not	to	loiter.	I	will	wait
	Until	the	sun	is	down.

	Tis	after	noon
	Already.
	LUCIFER
	Oh,	there	s	time.	If	he	arrives,
	I	ll	take	him	with	me.	On	no	better	day
	Could	he	observe	the	wildness	of	our	lives
	Than	when	the	warders	of	our	rocky	nest
	Welcome	me	back.

	Indeed,	I	think	they	ought.

	His	face	was	uplifted,	and	he	smiled	as	he	echoed	her

	"Rest	thee,	Rest	thee,	thou	God!"
	With	some	difficulty	he	rose	to	his	feet,	and	stumbled,
	heavily,	into	the	inner	room,	where	Aphrodite	gleamed
	through	her	incense	cloud.	Here,	with	the	air	of	one
	tired	unto	death,	he	sank	down	upon	the	leathern	couch.
	And	so	the	heavy	eyelids	closed	over	his	weary,	weary
