Physical Training.

IF properly directed" says DIR. Austin
Flint, jun, of New York, himself famous
for his fine physique, (" gymnastics will en-
large and strengthen the muscles of the
trunk, legs, arms, and neck, will expand
the chest, so giving the lungs free room to
play, viii render the joints supple, and
impart grace, ease, and steadiness of car
riage, combined with strength, quickness,
and elasticity of movement" And why
not distribute these good things among al

teacher who has already shown herself
qualified to direct in other and really far
more difficult branches can readily do the
directing in this, and in doing IL she will
be sure to find, in a multitude of instances
at least, that she will soon know u feeling
of greater ease and fitness for all her work,

hundred exercises which the teacher and
scholar at glance could understand, and
at once apply in the schoolroom, might
readily be here suggested, did the narrow
limits of a paper like this permit Many
people know of some such exercises al
ready, and by little ingenuity could de
wise many more. But any amount O
knowing will not suffice. They must dc
them, do them daily and throughout the
year, side by side with the other studies

The table indicates that but one town in
the District made as good showing when
these figures were made, as Wellington.
Port Clinton had one instrument TO "a of
population and Wellington one to Ss-
Since that time, however, the Wellington
list has been increased so that she has one

Wellington beating her three to one. 1t
could not be expected, however, that city
with its multitudes of poor could keep
pace with a small but thrifty town in an
enterprise of this kind.
From the table referred to we find that
Ashland, Findlay and Oberlin run the
Company in debt from so to II per cent
per month; that the cost of maintaining an
Exchange for each instrument varies from
$1.s2 to $4.s6 per month. owing to the size
Of the Exchange, the larger the Exchange
the less the cost in proportion, and the
average cost for the District being $3.50
per month for each instrument, as we have
before stated. When it is remembered
thar in this calculation no allowance is
made for deterioration Of the plant and the
large sums of money invested in establish
ing the Exchanges. it will not take the in
telligent business man long to determine
that the rates charged are none too high to
warrant the safety of capital and to assure
reasonable percentage of income.

imported into this Country during the
year. The Internal Revenue Tax collected
upon the whisky, beer and tobacco during
the fiscal year was $14O,O00,00o. In medi
tating upon all this, one cannot forget the
filth and stencil, the crime, poverty and all
the debasing effects resulting from the
smoking, chewing, snuffing and drinking
of such an amount of nastiness and poison.

Luxuries.

The annual report of the Commissioners
ofinternal revenue gives some facts regard

and whisky, that speak for themselves.
11,65s338 pounds Of licorice was used by
the tobacco factories in manufacturing
chewing tobacco the last year. 19O,O0,OOO
pounds of chewing tobacco was made.
Licorice, sugar not powdered loaf
and elycerine or tusil oil are among the fla
