The learned doctor says =" She endeavors to
strengthen bersef by ohlging every one Of her citi
Gems TO serve five years as soldier" This is not
true. The fact Is that every young man Of normal,
mental, and physical constitution, is compelled to
serve three years in the army; but Nere are some
exceptions abstracdng from the general rule Fami-
lies, for instance depending for support upon the
required recruits, have legal claims which are com
piled with when ascertained Studios theological
are exempted from contributing to mart. Young
men proving their collegiate education by an
examination can serve voluntarily and retire after
one years military exercises. Every soldier, having
served his time and retired into private e passes
