Too Much Early Work.

All the nutritive functions and actions
of growth proceed more vigorously and
rapidly in childhood and youth than in
mature life, not merely as regards the
solids and ordinary fluids, but also in
the production of those imponderable
and interchangeable forces which have
sometimes been personitied as nervous
fluid and muscular force. Using the
latter form to amplify my meaning, the
excess of nervous force is in the child
most naturally and healthily reduced by
its conversion into muscular force, and
at very short intervals during the active
or waking period of life the child in
stinctive!y uses its muscles and relieves
the brain and nerves of their accumu-
lated force, which passes, by the inter-
mediate contraction of the muscular
fiber, into ordinary force or motion, ex-
emplified by the childs own amuse-
ments and by those of some object or
other which has attracted its attention
The tissues of the growing organs,
brain and muscles are at this period of
life too soft to bear long continuance
of their proper actions; their fbers have
not attained their mature tone and firm
ness. This is more especially the case
with the brain fiber The direct action
OF the brain, rs in the mental applica-
tion to learning, soon tires; if it be too
long continued the tissues are unhealth-
lily affected; the due progress or growth,
which should have resulted in fiber
fit for good and continuous labor
at maturity, is interfered with; the
child as an intellectual instrument is
to that extent spoiled by an error in the
process by which that instrument was
sought to be improved. The same ef-
feet on the muscular system is eXempli-
fled in the racers that are now trained
to two and half or three and half
years old for the grand prizes at Don
caster or EPSON. The winner of the
Derby never becomes an Eclipse or Fly
ing Childers, because the muscular sys-
tenn has been overwrought two or three
years before it could have arrived Mt
full development, which development is
stopped by the premature over-exertion.
! III the brain be not stimulated to work,
but is allowed to rest, and if at the same
time the muscles be forbidden to act,
there then arises; if this restraint be too
prolonged, an overcharged state of the
nervous system. 1t is such state as
we see exemplified in the Gagged quad
ruped of active habits, when Il seeks to
relieve it by converting the nervous into
the muscular force to the extent per-
mitted by its prison, either executing a
succession of bounds against the prison
bars, like the agile leopard, or stalking,
like the lion, sullenly to and fro. If the
active child be too long prevented from
gratifying the instructive impulse to put
in motion its limbs or body, the nervous
system becomes overcharged, and the
relief may at last be got by violent emo
tions or acts, called "passion " or
"naughtiness," ending in the fit of cry
ing and Hood of tears Prof Owen.

Scotch Funerals.

At Luss the fashion was to serve out
no liquor mt the house from which the
funeral "lifted.n The primary pur-
pose for which the company was met
was recognized as being to get the
body to the church-yard and buried
there. The graveyard was, however,
n long distance from the village, and
the burial over the company adjourned
to the neighboring "stage hoose" for
refreshments, which FORTY years ago al
ways took the following shape: First n
glass of whisky was handed round. ac-
cheese. When that had been discussed,
a glass of rum and farthing "cappit"
biscuit for each mourner followed.
This again was succeeded by a glass of
wine and sponge, or funeral biscuit.
1t was matter of compulsion, almost,
for each person to take off his glass
each round, and many persons still liv-
ing remember with q shudder their ex-
pcrience on such occasions. But even
this fashion was mild compared with
the generation immediately preceding,
when every guest had to swallow three
glasses of each of the kinds of drink.
The scandals to which this immoder-
ate drinking led can be well enough
conceived, and the Lairds, of Colqu-
houn, shocked at some stories that
came to their ears, offered to provide
hearse at their own expense for all in
terments, to take away the excuse for
SO much indulgence; but the proposed
innovation was resisted for many
years. On one occasion a party
was returning after the funeral
and subsequent refreshment, and some
kind friend had lent them cart to
ride home in. A discussion on some
point, whether political or religious 1
cannot say, arose, the result being that
those who adopted the one side Of the
question refused to ride in the same
cart with their opponents, and the
weaker side was consequently "dis-

Nest persons think that a bad breath
comes from the stomach; that the stom-
ach being out Of order, sends up an i'm
pure something which escapes in the
breath. This Is impossible. A bad
breath never comes from the stomach.
Nothing ever comes upward except in
vomiting and eructations of wind. There
Is no open passage through which an
odor can rise to the mouth. The pass
age into the stomach from above Is al
ways perfectly closed, except at the
moment when something is entering,
and even then there is no chance for an
odor TO escape from the stomach up
ward. The Gsophagus or meat-pipe
closes upon the thing passing down, and
grasps it all the way, from the upper to
the lower end. For example, whole
chestnut passes down the psophagus.
The moment it enters the upper end of
the passage, the walls of the passage
grasp the nut and squeeze it from above
so tight as to force it down. The part
of the canal Immediately above the
chestnut, all the way down, is so tightly
closed upon the nut that the squeezing
presses it on until it is forced into the
stomach. Whenever there is nothing in
the passage it remains shut; the sides
are pressed together; nothing whatever
can escape from the stomach up through
it. And, even in vomiting, it is very
difficult to force solid matter upward. In
most persons, it requires tremendous
effort to get anything up. And yet,
strange to say. most persons imagine
the passage to be an open pipe, through
which bad odors may constantly pass up,
and escape in the breath. Irepeat, that
the passage to the stomach is, except
when something is passing down, per-
fectly closed, and even then it is only
open where the mass is, while above and
below it the walls of the passage are
closely pressed against each other. A
bad breath never comes directly up from
the stomach. Le,ois, tn Golden
Rule.
