ExcEssEs ARE INJURIOUS. Physical exercise
is one of the things that many of our city fe-
males greatly need. If it could be taken regu-
larry and properly, much good would doubtless
come from it. But excessive exercise, either
physical or mental, is to be avoided if possible.
Vitality, if existing in human form that is OF
any value should not be wasted. Persons who
willingly waste strength h7 foolishly over-ex-
ertng themselves simply for money or for the
purpose of testing tnelr powers of endurance,
are trflers with the most valuable thing this
world has, human life. To thoughtful persons,
such trifing must always be unpleasant. And
it would appear quite strange to see sensible,
educated persons giving their influence to such
things, if it were not fact that many of this
class 60 unthinkingly with the thoughtless
masses for almost anything that is uncommon.
There seems to be no lesson harder to learn than
that of discretion. The law of our being should
teach US to avoid all excess. There is much
truth in the following, from Cotton: 'The ex-
cesses of our youth are draughts upon our old
age, payable with interest about thirty years
after date

ART AND ANTIQUITIEs.-Th Rev. Henry G.
Spaulding, of Boston, announces in our col
umns an illustrated lecture on "Greek Art and
Roman Life in Ancient Pompeii." Mr.. Spauld-
ing's success in lecturing on Roman antiquities
at the. Lowell Institute in Boston, the Peabody
Institute in Baltimore, and at other of our
prominent educational institutions, shows how
much interest is felt by the general public of
this country in the life and art of the old Gre
clan and Roman world. The New York Nation
calls attention to the fact that objectlectures of
this sort fulfil for the present day the conditions
which originally made the lecture system q
stimulus to thought and education. They pop
ularize the best scientific and historical knowl-
edge. The lecturer depends for his success in
gaining hearers, not on brilliant delivery or
mere personal notoriety, but on having sub
ject of real interest for intelligent people, upon
which he is fully prepared and competent to
speak. In lectures illustr2t ted by the stereopti-
con, the scenes and objects described are
brought very wildly before the hearer. thus
affording entertainment and instruction such
as are seldom secured from the platform.

OLD ORCHARD CAmP-mEETING
Opening Day.

The National Christian Temperance Camp
meeting. the second of the annual series at
Old Orchard, commenced rather inauspiciously
yesterday. In the morning there was no
meeting.
AT o'clock the bell at the stand called ont
about two hundred, and a social meeting was
held, conducted by La Forest Howe. The
opening prayer was by Rev. John Woodbury.,
and Mrs. Livermore repeated psalm after the
manner of Camp-meetipg John Allen. Brief
and practical temperance addresses were made
by Owen B. Chadbourne, E. o. Foss, President
of the Dover N. H., Reform Club, M. G. Pal
mer, who animadverted somewhat Cd
the use of tobacco-Eben Emerson of Bid
deford, Rev. T. P. Adams and Mrs. Fitzgerald
of Brunswick. Mrs. Kimball of Chicago also
spoke of the.temperance work in that city, in
which she was interested, and held the closest
attention of the audience. Miss Kimball is a
pleasing speaker, and it is to be hoped will be
heard from again during the week. The closing
remarks of the chairman were earnest and
practical.
1t was intended to have held meeting in the
evening, but the severe shower prevented. Gov.
Connor will not be present during the meeting,
and DR.. Reynolds is also detained by illness of
his wife. Ex-Gov. Perham is expected today.
Friday is Good Templars' day and good speak
ers are expected from abroad.

There is no medicine prescribed by
physicians, or sold by Druggists, that
carries such evidence of its success and
superior virtue as BosCnEE's GERMAN

ease of the Throat and Lungs. A proof
of that fact is that any person afflicted,

TIE Manchester Press gives hopeful
account of the results of the recent tenn
perance revival in that place. We have
before alluded to the formation of tenn
perance club of men, who were formerly
drinking men, comprising some of the
most able and talented men in the place,
and their methods for mutual help and
protection. The Press says.
The club, in conjunction with other
temperance work, has already accom-
plished wonders. The sale of liquor has
been, in great degree, stopped. Two
of the saloons having been discontinued;
another has quit selling anything strong
or than soda water; and the proprietor of
the billiard room in City Hall block, we
understand, avows his determination to
quit business on the expiration of his
present lease. This is very encourag-
ing, indeed We have strong hopes that
the Others may conclude to find some
other business, and that, on the coming
fourth of July, we may be able to cele-
bratc our personal as well as national
independence-our freedom from the do
minion of rum as we'll as from that of
Great Britain.
