A geed playsigue is 'more mane to the youth than he Mem nyhrg mental endowments, Aimee these may be indefinitely developed, while the form jf neglected in early life may never be " Wined. There are many who secure a fine eche) tion, graduating with high honors, who after life is one of pain and anguish, an hey die a premature death, simply becau they neglected the education of their boclie While those who maintain strong bodies well as sound minds, will not only be bett prepared for study, but for after life. Providence puts in our hands the meane of preserving health, and Wails gift involves a grave responsibility. It has been justly said, "Health will be counted among those talents for the use of which we are to answer to our Creator," and it therefore becomes our duty to acquaint ourselves with those laws which regulate and govern it. It is the duty of all parents to admonis their children to take proper exercise. Bu we find that many parents pay more atten tion to the physical culture of their dome tie animels, etc., than they do to their ow children. Girls are more apt to neglect exercis than boys, and hence they shou14. nicely greater attention from parents and. teach era; there is no reason why they shoul not take proper exercise as well as boys, fo they are to bring up children of their own and it becomes their duty to mantel strong bodies and to be versed in physics educottion, in order to train their ohildre aright. The teacher must not think that one-half the time is to be spent in recesses, or tha the children should spend more throe in pla than study, but recesses are necessary, an it, is the duty of every teacher to see tha the pupils not only leave the school -room but that they engage in some a.greeabl amusement calculated to cheer and keep n the healthy action of the system as well as strenitthen the muscles. Teachers and parents are very apt to forget that exercise is necessary to health, and they are ofteu de • ceived in believing that medicine can cure the headaches and like pains caused by the constant breathing of ionpure air in improp- erly yeelliated rooms, while the real cure is found in leght exercise t ',ken in the open air. Outdoor exercise is more profitable than in- door, and should be taken daily by all who would enjoy good health.

Here' is an account of the mode In e which Burton used to master a language in e two months: He bought a simple grammar . and vocabulary, marked uut the forms and d words which he knew to be absolutely e necessary, and learnt them, by heart by , carrying them in his pocket and looking over • rthern at spare moments during the day. He never worked more than a quarter of an hour et at a time, for after that the brain lost its frealmeas. After learning some 300 words easily done in a week, he stumbled through t some easy work (one of the Gospels is the y most come -at -able) and underlined every d word that he wished to recollect in order to t read over his penoilings at least once a day. Having finished his volumis, he completely e worked up the grammar, minuthe and all, p and then chose some other book whose sub- jeot more interented him: The neck of the language was now broken, and progress was rapid. If he canoe across a new sound, like the Arabic Chayn, he trained his tongue to it by repeating it so many thousand temes a day, and when heread he invariably read sb loud that the ear might Desist his memory. And whenever he conversed with anybody in a language that he was learning he took the The Russian Serf Before Bmaneipation. There is plenty of evidence that tipItus- siau suppoim4 in Englaed te have en mo torpid, writhed fiercely ender their bondage.

IVIoreover, M.

A popula- tion so enibittered against its owners neeur. ally looked, to the central authority, ae had done when oppressed by less regular means. This feeling of reliance on the cen- tral manifested all through Russian history might not of itself haws built the autocracy, but that the Rouse of Rurik, always self- willed and fierce, felt that only in perfect personal power, as of deity, could they find protection agalnoot the eobles and dependent Princes who from age to age threatened even their lives. It was necessary, if they were to reign at all, to reign fiercely, to allow of no rerostance, to destroy whole femilies leagued against the throne, Cztrs and people therefore played. into each others hands, until at last Peter the Little could say with truth that in Runk' no one WM important except the man whom the Czar addressed, and he only so long as the Czar addressed him. --The Spectator. .

Security under our system of insurance we consider equally good. Tire benefit thus afforded, of reliable insuraeoe at reasonable cost is being appre- ciated by the public, hence the large inorease in our buelnees last yeer ; and the prospect of still greater increase the coming year. The following is a condensed report from the re. port submitted by the Directore :- FINANCIAL STATEMENT.

Great Little Men. Some of the greatest men that ever lived were of small stature and insignificant ap- pearance. The reader will readily recall many instances. Very small are Dr, Pierce's Pleasant Purgative Pellets, but they are far more effective than the huge, old-fashioned pills which are so difficult to swallow and BO harsh in their action. The "Pellets" are gentle and -never cause constipation. For stomach and bowel derangements they have no equal. The geography teaches us that this is the temperate zone, but judging from the state- ments of the prohibitionists, the intempeeate zone would be a more appropiate name for it. • Famous Women. It is a. significant fact that most of the trouble to repeat the words inaudibly after women Who have achieved fame in art, liter - him, and so to learn the crick of pronuncia- ature, or "affairs," have enjoyed vigorous I Won and emphasis. health. This shows that the mind is never be innefficient, but when accompanied by an oceetional outdoor walk or sport will be prod,ac.inve of great good. The use of light duniDffells and Indian clubs is highly re- commended to students. Exercise, like everything else. should be systematized in order to afford the greatest amount of good. Ib is of the utmost im- portance, at all times, that our lungs should receive a full supply of pure air, and this becomes an absolute necessity oteethen• exercising vigorously. If the air inhaled be impure the exercise will not prove of benefit; rather positive injury may result, hence, gymuasiunts and other rooms for exercise should bewell ventilated, and should be kept as near as possible at a temperature of about 60° F. It is hot ad: visable to carpet the floor, as the rooms .should always be free from dust. The ceil- ing of such rooms should be tolerably high. -Brisk exercise should not be taken just before or after a fall meal. Cold water should not be drunk immediately after ex- ercising; the longing for water in this woe is not due to actual thirst, but caused by the parohed condition of .the throat and tongue. Care should also be taken not to sit or stand in a draught at any time, and more especially so after exercise when the body is heated and the pores of the skin open. The child should not be allowed to exer- cise too vigorously at first ; fifteen minutes of brisk exercise is sufficient for the begin- ner, and the time may be increased a few minutes each day. Physical education should be taught in our schools and studied at home until it be. comes so instilled into our minds as to ren- der the subject perfectly fanoiliar to all. The time is coming when physical training will be counted quite as important, if not more so, than the study of gremmar or ge- ometry and then our "physical sins will be shown up and in due time corrected. Griddle Cakes. Of griddle cakes, the buckwheat is just now mostseasonable, and with due respect for the convenience of self-raising mixtures, we rnust commend the old way of using yeast as a means of raising them to that honey -comb lightness so desirable and ap- pend a recipe used by one whose cakes we have eaten ever since old enough "to eat with grown folks." She calls them: OLD TIME 131/OKWHBAT CAxes,-Make a batter of buckwheat flour and warm water, and one cup of yeast or one yeast oake, add- ing a little salt. Matte the batter a little thinner than for flour griddle cakes. Let it rise twenty-four hours; then add a pinch of soda, beat well and fry on a very hot grid- dle and eat with syrup. Make the syrup by melting brown sugar in hot water and allowing it to come to the boiling point. il Save som f the batter tomix again, for the cakes are mai better after the second day. No morieeyeast need be added all winter f the pitcher -which is the most conven- ent to pour from -is kept where it will not t reeze. These are far [superior to the self- aisingflour cakes, as buckwheat needs to work tike beer before' it developeio its best flavor. Buckwheat cakes eaten aloe() for break- ast are often followed by a faint or all one feeling at the stoonach before the noon hour, and have not the staying power of i ome other very aimple +dishes; therefore:: P hey should be made an addition to rather /1931 the staple pert of the morning meal. 8 Griddle cakes ehotild never be Served. imon a old plates for thia con be heated easily by o !lowing them to stand upon a rack or grate h a the open oven, or by pouring hot water 0 pon and immediately draining them.

T. Knox churche*Winnipege congregation ex- tended an unanimous call to Rev. Mr. Fleck, of Montreal. The West Lynne Financial Commissioners will recommend to the Government that the town pay forty cents on the dollar of its in- debtedness. The snow blorikade in the mountaIns is not yet relieved, and roe leas than four trains are stuckthere. i Settlers in the vicinity of Medicine Hat have started ploughing. Almost spring like weather prevails. The Mounted Police hospital at Fort Sas- , katcliewan was burned the other morning, with all • the medical sueplies and instru- ments. The cause of the fire is unknown. The Arrnies of Europe. "The bloated arm'of the great • military powers of Europe" display their proportions in a very striking manner in Col, Vogt's work OD "The European,Armies of the Present." The mobilized strength of France is set down at 2,051,458 troops, exclusive of the territoral army, which is equally large; that of Russia at 1,922,405; Germany, 1,493,690, and that of Austria. Hungary, 1,035,955. The military strength of Italy has now attained proportions that ' would have been deemed incredible ten years ago. Including militia it is alleged to amount to 2,387 men. If, however, a similar inclusion be made in the case of Russia, the military strength of that power will probably be found to exceed even that of the French Republic. Compared with these figures the numerical proportions of the British army ought to satisfy' the mem- bers of the Peace Society. Including bur militia and volunteers, as well as the Indian army, we can just muster 781,677 troops. And these have to serve for the defence of territory distributed over a very much ,wicler area than that rnled by any of the other powers. -wernitow.--11 A King's Advice to His SODS. The King of Siam has sent four of his sons to Europe and given them some very good advice, which is published in the Bangkok Times. He tells them not to assume the title of prince in Europe and not to boast that they are princes. As the King is defraying all their expenses from his own private purse, and not out of the f ands of the State, he has decided on de- positing a sum in the banks sufficient to give each of them $1600 a year for the first five years and $2000 a year for the second five years. A sum of $18,000 will be placed in the banks, bearing interest, and each son will be able to draw the surplus on attain - ng the age of 21 years.
