Exercise IS often recommended for n

organs of the body, aud very justly. For
instance. it is recommended Tor torpor
OF the bowels; but mere motion can have
no effect in awakening the peristaluc
action of the bowels; it is only by the
agency of exercise in forcing fresh sup
plies of blood into the coats of the intes-

Health, strength and happiness very much
depend upon the agency OF muscular ex-

is we'll known that the right arm and
hand, as well as the right leg and foot,
are both larger aud stronger than the
left. This eflectis the result Of the greater
exercise which the right arm and leg are
subject to; that is, the muscles OF that
side meet with more full and constant
supply of blood. and are consequently
enlarged and strengthened. The circula-

The Pnrson and the Editor.

The parson and the editor What a
marked difference between the two lives.
The hard worked minister writes one or
two original sermons each week. The
editor reads about $500 or 5000 columns
of printed matter each week, writes
about six, and edits another thirty. He
must handle subjects as they come up,
events as they transpire, and must use

The editor is a stranger to all this SYM
pathizing encouragement and good fel-
lowship. He has no trip to Europe paid
by his parishioners to secure rest and
quiet, although he certainly needs them.
And yet he is attached to his readers as
the parson is to his pagishioners. He
tolls year in and year out, he addresses
bis congregation regularly, aud his only
