You could use xtabular from the xtab package:

\documentclass[twocolumn]{svjour3}          % twocolumn

\usepackage{xtab}
\usepackage{makecell}

\begin{document}

{%
  \scriptsize
  \setcellgapes{4pt}
  \makegapedcells 
  \begin{xtabular}{|p{0.068\textwidth}|p{0.167\textwidth}|p{0.167\textwidth}|} 
    \hline
    A & B & C\\ \hline
