Then he painted raging, tossing sea,
Storming with farce and sudden shock,
Wild criee, and writhlng tongues OF foam,
A towering, mighty fairness rock.
Ia Its sides, above these lsaping crests,
The thrOnging sea- birds buit their nests.
"What diaagreeable daubp said she.

And handsome pavilion for the band

Except one little streak OF green.

Although 1t is generally known that

ing itself on all sides, and in ne posi-
tions i'm life. Overstudv is telling upon
our students in this crazy age of exami-
nations, when every person has to be a
perambulating encyclopedia. no matter
what the state Of the physique when
the educational course has terminated.
The number of cases Of Self-destruction
from anxiety and nervousness among
young men preparing for modern exam
nations is appalling. OF old theyoung
man who "overstudied" was weak
minded youth, whose brain broke down
before an ordinary, commonplace cdu-
cational course. easily surmounted by
an average intellect. Now it is no I'M
common thing to know Young men who
complain that they no longer feel an in
terest in their work, and that they can
not remember What they read; that
their sleep is broken, and that they no
longer possess the power Of self-control
they once enjoyed. When such loss of
self-control is found along with periods
OF deep depression, then the temptation
to suicide may become irresistible. Such
break-downs after a more or less bril-
liant scholastic career are, unfortu-
nately. now no uncommon event. In
deed it may be laid down as broad
rule for the guidance of youthful stu
dents that so soon as the interest in
their studies flags. or the memory is be-
coming less retentive, they are distinctly
overworking. In athletics the terms
used are to train on" and to "train
off" TO train on" indicates growing
powo.' and increasing fitness for exer-
ton; in other words, Improvement.
To train off " signifies waning power
or falling off" in capacity. So long,
then, as study carries with it waning
capacity it is work" when, on the
other hand, the student feels training
off" then the boundary has been passed
and the domain of "overwork" entered
Still more urgent does the case become
when, along with sense of waning
power, the sleep is broken and unre-
freshing or the digestion is upset. The
danger signals have been run through
in railway phraseology, when these
things are experienced. Such are the
usual phenomena of overwork, mani
tested along with symptoms peculiar to
each case.-GOOd Words.
