another column all necessary information as to

Our lecturers cater to the intellectual In their
offerings to Us every wioter, but what we
want is to know how to flt ourselves physically
and mentally for the extraction of the highest
enioyments from life, aud tho ability to accom-
plsh tho greatest amount Of good.
We cannot do that unless we understand
and practice the laws Of health. To under
stand those laws, We must first understand the
delicate human organism to which they apply
In that study We need teacher. Lectures
are among the most popular, as well as the
most pleasant methods OF teaching A fluent
lecturer, the master of the subject, amply sup
piled with plates, diagrams and models, with
his head full of facts and his heart full of be-
nevolence, can pour full tids Of blessing upon
the community, and should be heartily vel.

DR.. Hebbard comes to US with the highest
testimonials, and we are satisfied that to hear
him is to cordially endorse his noble work.
We advise our friends to give him a full house

is merely nominal, and of the entire course
