"Over-work," properly so-called, says the
London Lancet. can only occur when the or
gan upon which the stress of the labor falls
is as vet immature. and therefore in process
of development. When an organ has reached
the maturity of its growth IL can only work
up to the level Of its capacity or faculty for
work! Fatigue may produce exhaustion,
but that exhaustion will come soon enough
to save the organ. Repeated efforts" may,
under abnormal conditions. follow each other
too rapidly to allow of recuperation in the in
fervals of actual exertion, and as the starting
point will, in each successive instance. be
lower than the previous state, there may be a
gradual abasement; but even this process
should not seriously injure a healthy and
wel-developed organ. In short, great deal
of nOnsense has been said and written about
the ''over work. of mature brains, and there
are grounds for believing that an excuse has
been sought for idleness, or indulgence in
valetudinarian habit, in the popular outcry
| on this subject, which awhile ago attracted
much attention.
Nevertheless there can be no room to ques-
ton the extreme peril Of "over.work" to
growing children and youths with unds-
reioped brains. The excessive use Of an i'm
mature organ arrests its development by di-
verting the energy which should be appropr-
ated to its growth, and consuming 1t in work.
What happens to horses which are allowed
| to -un races too early happens to boys and
| girls who are over-worked At school. The
competitive systems as applied to youths has
| produced a most ruinous effect on the men,
| tn. constitution which this generation has to
hsnd down to the next, and particularly the
next -but-one- ensuing. School-work should
be purely and exclusively directed TO devel
opment. ''Cramming" the young for exam
ination purposes is like compelling an infant
| in arm. to sit up before the muscles Of its
| back are strong enough TO support II In the
upright position. or TO sustain the weight Of
| its body ON its legs by standing, while ~ yet
the limbs are unable TO bear the burden i'm
posed on them.
Another blunder is committed when one
Of the organs Of the body-to wit, the brain
is worked at the expense of other parts OF
the organism. in face Of the fact that the
measure Of general health 10 proportion
ed to the integrity Of development, and the
functional activity Of the body ~ . whole in
the harmony of it's component systems. No
one organ can be developed at the expense Of
the rest without a corresponding weakening
Of the whole. Those faults Of ''training'
| attain their supreme height Of folly and
shortsightedness when they are committed in
| reference to the youths destined for the pub
lie services. The work Of the Civil Service
I Commissioners in respect to these classes is
| dividually and radically desf,vetire. Sooner
! or latter public opinion must recognize this
| fact. and then perhaps the government or the
| legislature NAV be moved TO intervene, not
| before, but when it is too late.

Bismarck in Debate.

Prince Won Bismarck. without being an
| orator, has force, and, in ways that are char
acterstic. often succeeds in managing delib-
erative assemblies. Some of his repartees in
debate are irresistibly impudcnt. In the
German Parliament, short time ago, he was
defending measure for equaizing taxation
and a'lduced the example of France, where
his plan was. as he claimed, very successful.
We translate the following conversation:
He said: Il am told, in reply to my previ-
Gus statements. that living is very dear in
Paris. | answer by asking question of any
man who has actually lived in Paris, "Is liv-
ing dear there?"
Cries on all sides ''Yes, yes, yes; very
dear!''
Bismarck-That depends upon what sort OF
life one lives in Paris. and what pleasures one
seeks. Great laughter. For my part de
clare that can live cheaper there than here,
even in furnished rooms, And call to wit.
ness every workman who has lived in Paris if
| am not right in saying that he can live
there both better and cheaper than he can
live in Berlin. In truth. there are too many
progressives in the government of Berlin.
When ! read the names of certain members I
seem To feel progressive wind blow over
me-
A Deputy--That is insolence
Bismarck-lnsolence is an iusolent ex-
preston, Tumult of applause. hisses, and
cries of order.
The President-Was the word insolence
pronouncedF did not hear perfectly.
Many Voices-Yes! yes,
Bismarck-Yes (pointing with his finger
in that part of the chamber over there,
member who has no shame used the word
The PRESIDENT regret not to have heard
it. should have nterposed with the utmost
severity.
Bismarck-I hope that the gentleman will
give his name.
Herr Struve-It was l who pronounced the
word in question.
The President-The Deputy Struve ac-
knowledges that he spoke the words. "That
is insolence." | call him TO order. Ap-
plause from the Conservatives.
Herr Struve-I ask the president. who has
called me TO order for pronouncing the word
insolence. what corrse he intends to adopt
with regard to the Chancellor, who said that
the word was uttered by one who had no
shame. Applause from the Radicals.
Bismarck-In my own justification, I will
say that spoke that word before Deputy
Struve had had the goodness TO name him
self Now that he has done so, I withdraw
the expression. and add that the Deputy. at
the present moment. does certainly know
what shame is. Roars of laughter from all
sides
1t is perhaps to be lamented that a witty
turn Of this kind, which excites general laugh
ter. has So much effect upon a parliamentary
body. The effect may be but momentary.
but il often serves TO give the offending party
a scmhlance of triumph-as in this instance.

Titles for Ladies.

What awkward prefixes Mrs. and Miss are
to the names of our women. Mr.. is distaste-
full enough as a masculine title, but that the
unpronounceable Mrs. and the Kissing Miss
should have survived as long as they have is
a reflection upon the good sense Of English
speaking people. Mistress for Mrs. might be
revived indeed. it would be q great improve
ment: but how inferior even this term is to
Madame of the French! For Mafemoiselle
we have actually no exact equivalent. for this
term may be used either as a prefix to the
name or separately as a title, while the use Of
Miss without the name to follow is . vulgar
ism Of the deepest dye. This fact leads TO
many awkwardnesses. How shall A person
address young lady whose name he does not
know? To ,ay ..Miss" is abominable: TO say
Madam" if she is very young. is absurd; to
borrow "Mademoiselle" would be an affecta-
ton. The language absolutely provide
nothing appropriate in such an emergency,
unless a word fairly obsolete in this use is
revived-the word lady. We occasionally
hear common people address a lady simply as
lady, while the better informed. As they are
supposed to be, stumble at Madam" or are
guilty of the imprupriety Of saying .-Miss-"
II could be adopted more freely in this coun-
try than in England. because here it is not 4
title of rank. and no exclusive class is entitled
to it--Appieton's Journal
