PROPER EXERCISE.

When we talk about exercise, we
are very apt to forget that it is many
sided word. We use it as if referred
merely to the movement of the mus
cles. 1t is necessary to health that all
our powers shall be exercised, and the
continued disuse In any one of them
results in its partial or total loss. Ifone
should lie in bed for years, without the
slightest ailment, still one would lose
the use cf his limbs; and this is equally
true of quite different facultuies. All
our powers grow by use. If we neglect
to cultivate the habit of observation,
we might as well walk through the
world blindfold.
We lose our faculty-what artists call
our stouch'-by neglect of practice on
other things beside the piano. The man
who seldom reads, reads slowly the
woman whose writing is confined to an
infrequent letter to some absent child,
spends more time over that than does
a practised writer over u dozen pages
of manuscript. In the realm of the
emotions it is the same. BenevOlence
is largely matter of habit. So is af.
fection, self-control, gentleness. If,
then, exercise, i'm its largest sense, is Of
so great consequence, we Al once see
the Importance of arportloning it to
our personal deeds.
Ii our occupation is sedentary, we
need to plan for walks and rides, and
active games, to keep our muscles 1.-the
and serviceable. But if our employ
ment gives us enough muscular action,
it is not one whit less important to our
health of body that we should plan for
mental exercise-for employment
enough of our memory and our reason
ing powers to keep them from rusting.
And, in either case, that life must be a
dwarfed and unhealthy one that does
not provide exercise for our spiritual
faculties-for worship and charity, and
patience and magnanimity. Exercise
of soul, mind and body, can alone
bring US to the stature of the perfect
man.

Every year increases the popularity
of this valuable Hair Preparation;
which is due to merit alone. We can
assure our old patrons that it is kept
fully up to its high standard; and it
is the only reliable and perfected prep
aration for restoring GRAY OR FADED
HAIR to its youthful color, making it
soft, lustrous, and siIken. The scalp,
by its use, becomes white and clean.
1t removes all eruptions and dandruf,
and, by its tonic properties, prevents
the hair from falling out, as it stimu-
lates and nourishes the hair-glands.
By its use, the hair grows thicker and
stronger. In badness, it restores the
capillary glands to their normal vigor,
and will create new growth, except
in extreme old age. 1t is the most
economical HAIR DRESSING ever used,
as it requires fewer applications, and
gives the hair a splendid, glossy ap-
pearance. A. A. Hayes, MD, State
Assayer of Massachusetts, says, "The
constituents are pure, and carefully
selected for excellent quality; and 1
consider it the BEST PREPARATION
for its intended purposes"

THE FOLLOWER.
By z. II. sroDDARD.


We have youngster IN the house,
A little man of ten,
Who dearest to his mother is
OF all Gods little men.
Indoor and out he clings to her;
He follows up and down;
He steals his slender hand in hers;
He plucks her by the gown.
'sWhy do you cling to me so, child!
You track me every where;
You never let me be alone"
And he with serious air
Answered, as closer still he drew,
'.My feet were made to follow you"
Two years before the boy was born
Another child of seven,
Whom Heaven had lent to US while,
Went back again in Heaven.
Hecame to fill his brothers place,
And bless our failing years;
The good God sent him down in love
To dry our useless tears.
think 80, mother, for hear
In what the child has said
A meaning that he knows not OF,
A message from the dead.
He answered wiser than he knew,
'.My feet were made TO follow you.
Come here, my child, and sit with me,
Your head upon my breast;
You are the last of all my sons,
And you must be the best.
How much love you, you must guess,
When, grown man like me,
You sit as l ann sitting now,
Your child upon your knee,
Think of me then, and what said
(And practiced when / could,
''Tis something to be wise and great,
Tis better to be good.
Oh, say to all things good and true,
My feet were made to follow you!"
Come here, my wife, and sit by me,
And place your hand in mine
(And yours, my child: while | have yc
'Tis wicked to repine.
We've had our share of sorrows, love;
We've had our graves to fill;
But, thank the good God overhead,
We have each other still
We've nothing in the world besides,
For we are only three:
Mother and child, my wife and child,
How dear you are to me-
know-indeed, always knew,
Ny feet were made to follow you

Cleopatra's Needle.

A project has been renewed for the
transportation home Of the obelisk ut Al
exandria, Egypt,-one of the so-called
Cleopatra's Needles-presented to England
forty years ago by Mohammed Ali, It is
fine monolith Of red granite, sixty-four
feet in length, aud seven feet in diameter.
Its weight has been variously estimated,
but the maximum given is 284 tons. 1t
now lies prostratc and parallel to the sea,
at a distance Of twenty-four feet, on a
sandy bank fifteen feet high, with nothing
between II and the water save ruined
sea-wall. The hieroglyphics are in good
preservation, and record that the obelisk
was erected at On (Heliopolis, near Cairo)
by Thothmes ii. (about 1900 b. O. dur
ing whose reign Egypt is recorded to have
placed its frontier where IL pleased. The
lateral Inscriptions record the name and
titles Of Rameses ii. known to the Greeks
under the name Of Sesostris,) aud relates
how he had conquered all the nations Of
the world. 1t is worthy of note, too, that
the Israelites were in Egypt at the time
Of the construction Of this monument. II
is said to have been brought into Alexan-
dria at the beginning Of the Christian era
Various schemes have been suggested for
the removal of the stone, but the most
feasible seems to be the construction Of .
jetty to deep water, so as to convey i
along an inclined plane Of beams to raft
on which ii might be secured and towei
to England in the summer months.
