A physician, however, claims that the coughing nui sance Is a mere question of acoustics. "There Is ii subtle eounoctlou be tween the ear and the throat," he said. "When the ear Is strnlued the throut Is affected, and a cough Is the result, over the race question When we can hear perfectly iu church or theater It never occurs to us to cough.

He states that the white people of South Africa are much disturbed there, and that he is in the South to find out how it is that the two races have got along so well and so prosper onsly. From what he has already learn ed and observed of American ne groes, Mr. Fickstoue is convinced, he says, that there is no material ditVerence between them and the barbarous natives of South Africa. Having lived as a farmer for fif teen years in Cape Colony, he should be well informed, but he doubtless means that our negroes have the same instincts rather than that they, as a whole, occupy the same low level of civilization as the Kaffirs.
