Exerolee is emu. tial to tho preservatiou of health; inactiv- ity is it potent =use of wasting and degeneration. The vigor and equality of Tho circulation, the functions ot the shin, and the iteration of the blood, aro all pro- moted by muscular nativity, which thus keeps up a proper balance and relation between the Important orgats of the body. In youth, the vigor of the system is often great that if one organ be sluggish another part will make amends for the defi- ciency by acting vicariously, and -without dny consequent damage to itself. In old age, the juke cannot be thus ultifted from one organ to another; the work allotted to eaoh sufficiently taxes its strength, and vicarious action cannot be performed without mischief. Hence the importance of maintaining as far as possible, the equable action of all the bodily inane, so that the share of the vital pro- cesses aseigned to each shall be properly accomplished. Por this reason exercise is an important part of the conduct of life in eld ago; but dissretion is absolutely news - nary. An old man should discover by ex- perience how much exercise he can take •withont exhausting his powers, and should be careful never to exceed the limit. Old persons are apt to forget that their staying powers are much less than they once were and that, while a walk of two or threemiles may prove easy and pleasurable, the addi- tion of a return journey of similar length will seriously overtax the strength.

A silk sponge, it piece of scenting soap, towels and all his little clean clothes, most also be in readiness. Lay ft large piece of old blanket with a piece of rubber cloth rider it on your lap, disrobe his baby raajesty, lay him on hie stomach and sponge him all over quickly, being very careful not to let soap and water get in his eyea or ears. Wet and soap the sponge, and wash carefully in the creases of the neck and under his arms, lathering the stomach well to get tip a circulation. NOW lower him gently into the tub, and amuse him by letting him splash the water with his hands while you sponge hint rapidly all over the body for four or five minutes. Many young mothers are clumsy and awkward, and baby, who knows a great deal more than you give him credit for, feels that he is not treated properly, and resents it in the only way poseible to him, by it free use of his lunge. Lift him out on a piece of dry blanket, cover with a soft Turkish towel, and dry thoroughly; then rub chest, back, armpits and the entire body well with an old piece of gauze flannel. All this takes longer in the telling than in the doing. Plain rice powder is the safest and best. By the time baby is arrayed in his dainty, clean garments, he will be tired, and ready for his next meal, after which a healthy and properly brought up infant will take the long nap that gives mamma time for the thousand and one &Wee that she oannot always perform in his waking houre, or for her own much-. needed rest.—Albany Cultivator, sugar of milk a Diuretic in Disease of the Heart.
