Nearly a month ago there came to me from one of the universities a tract by Dr.Edward Anthony Spitzka on the "Encephalic Anatomy of the Races." I judged that my opinion was desired by the university, and I was greatly pleased with this attention and wrote and said I would furnish it as soon as I could.

That night I put my plodding and disheartening Christian Science mining aside and took hold of the matter.

I wrote an eager chapter, and was expecting to finish my opinion the next day, but was called away for a week, and my mind was soon charged with other interests.

It was not until to-day, after the lapse of nearly a month, that I happened upon my Encephalic chapter again.

Meantime, the new wisdom had come to me, and I read it with shame.
