Neither the Japanese nor the Chinese kiss, In many African tribes the natives kiss the ground over which a chief has trod.

His services as a professor were too much in demand and In 1847 he was ap- pointed to the chalr of anatomy at Harvard college-—the university where he had recelved his education. He held this position until the year 1882. Doctor Holmes Is better known as a writer than a physician. He was prominently jdentified with the group of contributors who made a well known magazine famous some years ago and his many works have entitled him to a place among America’s best writers, He died In 1804 at the age of eighty-five.
