English VS.. American Girls.

The English Girl spends more than
one half of her waking hours in physical
amusements which tend to develope and
invigorate and ripen the bodily powers.
She rides, walks, drives. rows upon the
water, runs, dances, plays, sings, and
jumps the rope, throws the ball, hurls the
quot, draws the bow, keeps up the shut
tlecock-and all this without having it
forever pressed on her mind that she is
thereby wasting her time.
She does this every day, until it becomes
habit which she will follow up through
life. Her frame as natural consequence,
is larger, her muscular system better de-
veloped, her nervous system in better SUBJ
ordination, her strength more enduring,
and the whole tone of her mind healthier.
She may not know as much at the age of
seventeen as does the American Girl; as
general thing she does moi; bu: the growth
of her intellect has been stimulated by no
hot house culture, and though maturity
comes later it will proportionably last
longer. Eight hours each day of mental
application, for girls between ten and
nineteen years, or ten hours each day, as
is sometimes required at school, with two
hours for meals, one for religious duties,
the remainder for physical exercises, are
enough to break down the strongest con-
stitutiOn.
