The Exeter Times, 1888-4-5, Page 3IdE.A.L'rEE Health and Morals, It is asserted that many a poor fellow bits swung from the gallowa simply because the judge happened to have a fit of indiges- tion. Whether thie be true or not, any one who has visited a penitentiary must have been convinced that many a man has been eent to State -prion who ought to have been sent to the hospital. Ohl Dr. Abernethy used to say, "Every sick man is a rascal." We think the old doctor was rather hard on the sick mail ; nevertheleee, an extended experience with sick people has convinced us that, on the whole'.it is easier for a well Man to be good, or decent, or pious, than for a sick man. Good health does not al- ways go with good morals, but good morals are certainly more apt to be associated with good health than the contrary. A vast emOunt of ha= grows oub of the notion, whnh has been extensively culti- • vated by a certain epecies of Sunday -school •books, that fteepereon must be sickly to be good, Some years ago the writer envy in a European picture gallery a painting of the Madonna by an old artistAin which the saint was represented with pale and sunken cheeks and hollow eyes, lookiug as though the artist had made a picture froni life, of a woe -begone dyspeptic. Doubtless this was his ideal of the highest type of womanly piety. There is a great amount of this sickly saintliness to be found in the religi- ous story books of the day. Almost all of tlie good little boys are cripples, or hunch- backs, or consumptive; and the good girls are homely, or cross-eyed, or have red hair, or are deformed in some way. The good men become pious on their death -beds, after having spent their lives in dissipation; and the pious mothers are represented deer the style of the Madonna of the picture gal- ery. All this is mockery, unreal, and depraving in its tendency. It inculcates in the ,boy's mind the idea that to be angelic is to be sort of pale and eickly, and to be good and pious is the next thing to being angelic. Boys ought to be taught that it is a good and pious thing to be healthy, to have stal- wart forms and brawny muscles. There is no necessary relation between hard muscles and hard heartedness, and there is • a very common association between flabby muscles, weak nerves weak wills and wick- edness. A man who has unmake strong enough to cope with any man of his size, is equipped with steady nerves and a stronger will, and hence is better prepared to resist • the devil in the guhie of morbid appetites and sordid passions. The total depravity which we often hear talked about ia, half the time at least, no. thing more nor less than total indigestion. So mood a man as Calvin signed the paper which sent Servetus to the stake for heresy. We never could comprehend SO inconsis- tent an action until we learned that just after this atrocious action the great theolo- gian Wrpte,. in his diary that he had for several,eeks been tormented by a dyspep- tic stomach. For parents who -find their children still ungovernable, notwithstanding the fre- quent use of the rod, we recommend the advice of a wise writer, that "cow's milk is a muoh better mane of curing a boy's way- wardnees than oow's hide:" Many parents who;giVe their children an abundance of wise,' counsel and religious Graining, send their boys to the saloon and the brothel by the •influence of morbid and inflamed appe- tites, engendered by the irritating and pas- sionstimulating food with which they feed them at the dinner table. Somebody had . well said, "There is religion in a loaf of bread" (providing, of course, that the loaf Nee a good one). It is equally true that there isainfamy and peridition in mince pies, spiced pickles, ginger snaps, and pepper- eanee. It is high time that those who are seeking to reform the world, should begin to preach the gospel of health. Instead of sending • missionaries to the Kaffirs, Hottentots, Kai - mucks, and Fiji Islanders, let us send a few messengers bearing the glad tidings of good health to the great "unwashed," badly -fed, the poorly -slept, the generally -neglected, and physically -depraved multitudes of our great cities. A clean skin and clean morals are not invariably concomitants, but we oould never subscribe to the doctrine taught by one of the "fathers," that the "purest souls are to be found in the dirtiest bodies;" neither should we be found among the ad- mirers of that other saint who was con- sidered to be pre-eminent in piety because he allowed his hair to clot with dirt, and had three hundred patches on his panta- loons. The best foundation for good morals is good health. The man who respects himself sufficiently to keep his exterior in a wholesome condition is likely to be, by that same self-respect, restrained from polluting his inner man. We never knew any young man to be thoroughly wicked, who took good care of his body. One of the beet omens for the future generation is the fact that quite a majority of the States in the Union have, within the last three years, passed a law making the study of hygiene, including temperance, compulsory. Ignor- ance is the greateat foe to good health as well as to good morale. Let every friend of humanity Join in the good work of spread- ing abroad the gospel of health; and the result will be a thinning oat of the jails, prisons, poor -houses, asylums, and hospi- • tals, such as would astonish the world. Order. The habit of order is much more far•reitch- ing than is generally supposed. It governs all atrangements, these of time as well as of -place ; it influencee thought as well as action, character as lad; as conduct. I J is the constant preventer of waste in every direction. No disorderly person can ever be truly economical. He may work hard and spend little, but economy demands the best results that can be obtained frorn tidy given e pource, and these can come only •throngh orderly and systematic arrange. men tAa The man who has acquired orderly habs will so manage his time that it shall be fruitful. He will neither idly procrasti- nate nor hurriedly scramble through hie work. He will neither put off to -day's duty until to -morrow not force to.morrow'e into to -day. He will provide for leisure DA well as for action, for recreation as well as for labor. He will reepect the time of othera as well as his own, neither breaking engage., menta nor forcing people to spend time with him against their will. A citiaen of Doylestown, 0., whoee hens were disappearing eaoh night from their house with discouraging regularity, while making a careful examination of the coops, found on the floor a pocketbook containing S85 and the name of a respected neighbor.

We not profess to be an authority on au questions and cannot not the father confess with any amount of benefit to the trouble one or of either honour or credit to the su posed oracle. On such matters ono gets eas ly and speedily out of his depth. It is qui true that every man is the net result of a the progenitors and influences which hey gone before him. A drunken, licentio man three or four hundred years ago ma have given a taint to his blood and a fore to his passions which tell upon his ever day thoughts and doings in a way that both sad and terrible to think about. B. may be scrofulous or half -mad or wholl perverse through influences altogether a tecedent to his existence and over which h has even now little power of contraetion control. No wonder he asks in sorrow and with anxiety, "How far am responsible? What is the amount of my individual guilt in this heated brain, and in this strange proclivity to certain kin& of vice ?" Every one knows of families in which the inachmes streak has been clearly manifest for many generations. It may not in many oases have got the length ot absolute inanity, but it was there in an and in some it went over the line and became the predominating force. Individuals are sometinaes spoken of as "queer " and of some others it is free- ly whispered that they have a cams ray from bedlam about them. What shall be said of soch and of hundreds of similar ase? Ms awfully dB:Emit to say anything to purpose. It requiree the All -wise Himself to apportion the amount of responsibility in each individual insta,nce. This, however, ie evident, that many are more deserving of pity than of blame, and perhaps this corres- pondent a.rnonst the rest. It is a pity, how- ever, when any One takes the supposed hereditary taint as an excuse for what is wrong and says, "1 cannot help it," when very possibly he has never tried. And just as • We Are no authority in apportioning the amount of responsibility in cases of wrong doing which may have flowed front hereditary influences and what is to be at- tributed to deliberate individual choice, so it would not dictate about what course in- dividuals should follow in the matter of having children and of thereby transmitting peculiarities and proclivities which are all but certain to cause exquisite :Jarrow and suffering, as well as possibly great sin to Pouring generations. • However lightly it may be thought of, there are few graver responsibilitien incurred than in the simple fact of becoming fathers and mothers. It is very evident that a great many ought never to incur such responsibility. They are physically, mentally and morally utterly unfit to be parents. A good deal might be said in favor of them being, necessary, forcibly prevented from ever occupying such a position. Why should scrofulous, con sumptive, deformed and utterly depraved men and women be permitted to perpetuate a race of diseaeed and ever growingly depraved weaklings? Some of the noblest men and women the worldiluts ever seen have solemnly aud deliberately repudiated marriage on this very account. They have seen and felt and mourned over the terrible hereditary taint that was in them and have vowed and keptthatvow. "This terror and degradation, as far as we are concerned, shall endavith us. No miserable physical and moral wreck shall ever ask in misery and with reproach, Oh, why did my father marry?"' • Come, come, TRUTH, have done, you are treading on very shaky and forbidden ground. Perhaps so. Bat when a father sees that taint which in himself has only taken the form of insensibleness and more or less of oddity in thought and bonduct,takingin his child that of Idiocy or madness, he must have very sad and solemn thoughts whieh very possibly might land in the conclusion "1 ought never to have married."

' She arose, coining up closer, putting one hand on the back of the chair u �n which I was sitting, and bending down with a tender look in her eyes, said : " Now,oyou know you'll subscribe for this book. I protested and did wish she would leave and said that she had gotten hold of the wrong man. She replied that she had not, that she meant business and was going to get my subscription. I began to get nervous, as I was alone in the office with a pretty woman. I beg- ged her tc leave—that it was becoming em- barrassing. "I'll tell yen 'what I'll do," she remark- ed, bringing her face down to the level of my own, "11 you'll subscribe I'll promise not to kiss you before I leave the office." I subscribed.

According to a story told by a Louisville paper, and vouched for by a minister of the Gospel, a miracle has lately occurred in that oity. •During the Moody meetings a young lady of Hebrew parentage was con- verted to Chrirstianity. Soon after her con- version she bought a New Testament and took it home, and, going to her room, sat down before the fire that filled the grate and was burning brightly, and began to read. Her mother, finding her thus engaged, was greatly enraged, and seizing the book threw rt in the fire. The young lady buried her face in her hands and wept. Ten minutes later, atter her mother had gone from the room, she looked tip, and happening to glance at the grate, saw her Testament ly- ing there unburnt. She snatched it, in sur- prised joy, from the fire, and lo 1 the flames' had not even scorched it.—[Rochester Democrat. How He is Affected on the First of tha Month.
