now IT is TOO STRONGLY TAXED.
No organ in the body is so liable TO b,
overworked as the heart. When ever,
other part of the body sleeps, il keep
on its perpetual motion. Every in
creased effort or action demands from
the heart more force. A man runs L
catch train and his heart beats audi
bly,. He drinks wine, and his BLOOD
rushes through its reservoir faster thar
was ever intended by nature. Hi
pulse rises after each course at dinner
A telegram arrives and his heart knockl
at his side. And when any one O
these "cxcitements" is over he Is con
scious of corresponding depression
a sinking" or emptiness" as 1t is call
ed. The healthy action OF all the
members of our frame depends upon
the supply of blood received from this
central fountain When the heart'i
action is arrested the stomach, which
requires from it a large supply Of blood
becomes enfeebled. The brain, also
waiting for blood, is inactive. The
heart is a very willing member but il
it be made to fetch and carry incessant
ly-ii it be 'put upon" as the unset
fish member Of a family often is, it un.
dergoes disorganization which is
equivalent to rupture. And this dis
organization begins too eften nowadays
in the heart of very young children
Parents know that II their sons are tc
succeed at any of those competitive
examinations which have now become
so cxigent, high pressure is employed
Hence, young persons are stimulated
to over. work by rewards and punish
ments. The sight of clever boy who
ia being trained for competition is tru
ly sad one. These precocious coach
ed.up children are never well. ThciI
mental excitement keeps up a flush
which, like the excitement caused by
strong drink in older children, looks
like health, but has no relation to it
In word, the intemperence of educa
ton is overstraining and breaking their
young hearts.
If in the school room some young
hearts are broken from mental strain,
in the playground and in the gymna.
