The Christian Law of Amusement" a man.
", vigorous, noble-hearted little book. by
the Rev. Mr.. Corning, Presbyterian clergy.
man in Buffalo; work, Of which it NAV Be
said, with truth, that it deserves to be learned
by heart by every parent and teacher in the
country.
The intimate connection between recreation
and physical exercise may be best understood
by those who have inspected the system OF
well-appointed and properly conducted gym
nasium. We mean, however, modern gym
nasium, with teachers and classes in which
pupils are gradually advanced from calisthcn-
les to the apparatus, and not an old-fashoned
affair where boys were turned in loose to
tumble about like young monkeys in wood !;
and where exercise is not to be confined to
mere development Of arms and chest. In
properly conducted gymnasium, where the
principals laid down by European writer's
are closely followed, there is no possible dan
ger of the young injuring themselves by pre-
mature exertion, while it offers as many rem
edes for disease as the Materia Medica. Half
the disorders to which. humanity is liable may
DC prevented by judicious exercise. How
often tho dispeptic or consumptivc patient is
told vaguely to exercise" And SO he goes
out every day walking. Let him 20 to
skillful teacher in gymnastics, state his case,
begin moderately in calisthenics and gradual
ly advance to the bars and other apparatus.
" Not l." exclaimed Aminadad Sleek. "At
my time in life 'twould be unbecoming to
laborer in the vineyard to indulge in such
boyish vanities" Poor fool, as IL there were
any time of life unfit for rational cxertion or
as if there were any sound mental in that
dignity" which could be effected by manly
exertion.
Our remarks have been suggested by read
ing an account of the late opening of the gym
nasium at Cambridge, Massachusetts,. We
have OF late months observed with real pleas
ure that many such schools for rational edu-
cation have been established in many towns.
Let the movement become general. There is
no girl, no man who has not positively fallen
into the decrepitude Of old age, who cannot
obtain lasting benefit from healthy Joyous ex-
ercise. Try it steadily at least for few
months, and then see if you are not better off
for the exertion. See ifyour dyspepsia does
not depart, if you are not habituality more
cheerful, and if the consciousness Of being
able to jump, run and climb like boy is not
an addition to happiness. Most Of all would
we urge the necessity Of such education on
young women. 1t is worth more to them
than the piano, more than French, more than
any accomplishment; and what is more, it
Wilt enable them to acquire more easily all
manner of intellectual gifts. Frank Leslies

srR1No.

The wintry days have past,
The Icy storms are Ger;
And gladsome Spring at last,
Comes smiling at our door.
The birds are back again,
To build anew their nssts;
And wake with vocal strains.
The sleeping from their rest.
The waters Of the ponds
Have lost their Icy floor
The skaters all have gone,
And waves break on the shore.
There's quiet in the air, @
calm and tranquil ease;
The winds blow soft and fair,
And whisper in the trees.
There's softness in the skies
That blends with thoughts within,
As the golden twilight dies
From the first bright day Of Spring.
Our thoughts are Of the loved
Who joined US days gone by,
And gladly welcomed Spring,
And the summer evening sky;
Or Of our youthful days,
When oft we went to rove,
Among the hills at play,
Or in the shady grove.
The Spring we loved so well

So tn. days dragged along, not one. passing
without DR.. Eldridge making his appearance
som where in my way. Sometimes l was
pleased to see him, perhaps always; but he
had a strange, mischievous way with him
that work ID against my temper constantly
| think he liked my little fits Of passion,
how " :, or h. would not have provoked them
continually.
And the school! Dear me, what school
it was! The trial of it wore me thin as a
sh:dow. But affairs came to climax one
day. This was tho way it was brought
about While hearing recitation one hot
sultry afternoon, drew my chair into the
middle Of the floor, whsre there was a faint
show Of a breeze. | was directly in front Of
one Of tn aisles, and so seated that could
not ,e what was going on behind me- AZ
ter dismissing the class, made an attempt to
rise. when to my utter dislnay and horror
found myself, or my dress made fast to the
chair. tried to be very cool and collected,
as released myself, but my hands trembled
violently, and as knew that my face was
white with anger.
.Can any one tell who pinned my dress to
the chair?' asked.
There was dead silence repeated the
question. Still no answsr. could interpret
that easily enough. Nota scholar in school
dared to tell 4 tale Of Frank Eldridge. Z.
You may walk this way, Frank" Isaid.
