listened for a moment; in another the

into the room.

ADVICE TO PROFESSIONAL MEN.

To professional men, men OF business
and indeed all who are engaged in pursuits
requiring more or less severe mental work,
coupled with more or less confinement,
exercise is, of course, the c0Rdiio sine qua
non OF the recreation to be recommended.
This fact is so obvious that | need not
dwell upon it further than to make one re-
mark. This is to warn all such persons
that their feelings are no safe guide as to
the amount of muscular exercise that is-
requisite for maintaining full and sustained
health. By habitual neglect of sufficient
exercise, the system may, and does, accom-
modate itself to such neglect so that not
only may the desire for exercise cease to
be fair measure of its need, but positive
exhaustion may attend much less amount
of exercise than is necessary to long con-
tinuance of sound health However strong
and well, therefore, man may feel
notwithstanding his neglect of exercise, he
ought to remember that he is playing a
most dangerous game, and that sooner or
later his sin will find him out-either in
the form of dyspepsia, liver, kidney, or
other disease, which so surely creep upon
the offender against natures laws OF
health. According to DIR. Parkes, the
amount of exercise that a healthy man
ought to take without fatigue is at the
least that which is required for raising l5O
foot-tons per diem. This, in mere walking,
would, in the case of man OF ordinary
weight, be represented by a walk of be-
tween eight and nine miles along level
ground. or one mile up a tolerabiy steep
hill but it is desirable that the requisite
amount of exercise should be obtained
without throwing all the work upon one
set of muscles. For this reason walking
ought to be varied with rowing, riding, ac-
tive games, and, where practicable, hunt
ing or shooting, which, to those who are
fond OF sport, constitute the most perfect
form Of recreative exercise.-[The Nine
teenth Century.

cHEApLY AND ABUxDANTLY.

Even under existing circumstances, with
an indolent population, no railroads, aud
no improved machinery, the yield of corn,
wheat, sugar, coffee and cotton is enor-
nous. Ii its broad plateaus were trav-
ersed by railroads, connecting with the
American system, the stimulating effect of
the demand thus created would develop
production until no portion of the earth's
surface would yield such returns. Coffee and
sugar are two articles in enormous demand
within the United States, and for which
we must always go beyond the limits of
our present territory. Mexico can easily
supply any possible demand for these ar
tlcles. 1t produces at present enough
coffee for home consumption and surplus
for export. The chaotic condition OF the
Government makes it impossible to get any
reliable statistics, but the report of the
United States Consul General shows that
the exports from thesingle port of Vera Cruz
in 1874 amounted in value to S543, $50,
while in 1876 it had risen to 81, l46, S45.
He estimated the value Of the crop on
few scattered plantations around the City of
Mexico at 81, 900, 900. and adds, This can
be increased to q hundred millions, with a
comparatively small money capital The
Mexican Government is doing something
to encourage the growth of coffee by re-
hitting taxes and offering bounties. Un-
der the encouraging effects of this policy
the production is increasing, and the ex-
ports from the Western coast is assuming

Leaving the saloon, he went to the police
station, related the particulars of the duel,
and delivered himself up. To shoot man
in Kansas at that time was small offense,
and the circumstances of this case rem
dered the offense a Western virtue Simms,
it was ascertained, was not dead SO Irkel,
having been put under bail, dozen men
contending for the honor-went to supper,
and then to his office, part of which, d.
vided by partition, served as a bed
chamber.
The unnatural strain and calm which
the lawyer had been under soon gave way
TO an intense nervous excitement. To
calm this he took down his law books. and
looked up certain authorities in case he
had to argue within fortnight. By a
great effort of will he banished from his
mind the events Of the evening and be-
came interested in his researches.

In this mood the lawyer stalked into the
appointed saloon. 1t was long room, a
wooden counter running from end to end,
lighted by several camphene lamps, and
half full OF rough men drinking and talking
politics with much emphasis and profanity.
Behind the counter were two large mirrors
in gilt frames, several rows OF decanters of
liquor. and on the unevenly papered parti-
ton hung several cheap pictures Of women
rejoicing in superabundant reddish-yellow
restitution of all raiment whatsoever,
