The Aim Of Exercise.

1t should be understood by the pub.
lie, as it is known to the profession,
that the aim of exercise is not wholly to
aoo,k the organism which is thrown
into activity, though that is one, and a
very important part of the object In
view, because as the living body works
it feeds. and as it feeds it is replenish.
ed; but there is another purpose in ex-
ercise, and that is to call into action
and stimulate the faculty Of ,sexpe,a-
hon. Those who believe in the exist
ence of special system, or series, of
trophic nerves will not object to this
designation of the recuperatlve function
as separate faculty." and those who
believe nutrition to be effected in and
by the ordinary innervation will recog-
nize the sense in which We employ the
term in italics. 1t is through defect or
deficiency in the vigor of this faculty
that unaccustomed feats of strength,
whether of mind or muscle, are found
to be exausting.
The task is performed, but the un.
derlying faculty of restorative energy,
or power of recuperative nutrition, 10.
Gated in the particular part exercised,
IS not in condition to respond to the
usual call made upon it. When man
goes intcitraining, or, which is practical
ly the same thing, when he habituates
himself to the performance of a special
class of work, he so develops this re-
cuperative power or function that the
repair or replemishing necessary to re-
store the integrity ana replace the
strength of the tissue 'used up" in the
exercise is instantly performed.
The difference between being &C
customed to exercise and able to work
without feeling it." and being barely
able to accomplish a special task, and
having it fstaken out" of one by the
exploit, whether mental or physician, is |
the difference between possessing the
power ofrapid repair by nutrition, ana
not having that power in working or.
der-so that some time must elapse
before rdcovery takes place, and dur
ing the interval there will be fatigue"
and more or less exhaustion.
The practical value of a recognition
of this commonplace factin physiology
will be found in the guidance it affords
as to the best and most direct way of
developing the power OF faculty of re-
by exercise. Many make
the mistake Of doing too much. Ex-
erc,se with q view to recuperation
should never SO much exceed the ca.
paclty of the recuperative faculty as to
PROSTATE the nervous energy. The
work done ought not to produce any
great sense offatigue. If exhaustion
oe experienced, the exercises has been (
in amount. II
The best plan to pursue is to begin (,
nth a very moderate amount of work, {
continued during q brief period, and to {
make the length of the interval be-
ween, the cessation ofexercise and the {

The building Of a direct line oi
railroad from Chicago to Kansas City,
with Kirksville as one Of the points on
the line would be an enterprise Of very
great advantage to Adair county. The
section ofthe county most benefited
would be Clay and Walnut townships,
both Of which are away from any rail.
road line.
Quite 9 largely attended meet
ing OF citizens was held at Baylor's
Hall. on Tuesday evening to consider
the new railroad project mentioned
below. Speeches were made by the
chairman. Judge Ellison. and Hnr F
NJ. Harrington and short remarks on
the desirability of securing the road,
by other gentlemen present. Resolu.
tions expressive Of goodwill toward
the enterprise, were passed and com.
mittees appointed to circulate subscrip-
ton papers to ascertain what our citi.
zens are willing to do in a pecuniary
way. toward inducing the road tolocate
the line through this county. Nothing
is to be asked of any subscriber until
the road is completed from Kansas
City to Kirksville, and not then if the
road is not finished within three years.
--A..railroad surveying party under
the supervision of Mr.. W. r. Jouette,
of New York, dropped down upon us
quite unhe1alded last week. The pro.
posed line is to be as near an airline
aspossible between Kansas City and
Chicago. 1t is claimed that it will
shorten the distance some fifty miles.
The road crosses the Mississippi at
New Boston, Iowa, and runs thence 10
Mt. Pleasant. Mt. Pleasant and Chill
licothe are to be points on the line. At
Chillicothe it is proposed to follow an
old grade already nearly completed to
Kansas City. The present survey
passes through Memphis, and Kinks
vile. Another line will be run by way
ofLancaster ad Milan. when the final
location will be determined upon and
the work commenced Col. Jouette
expresses the belief that the road will
be finished within the mex, eighteen
months.

The Missing Link.
interesting one,
May 3, 1883.

There is on exhibition at the Roya
Aquariam, Westminster. a little g;r
seven wears old. who, it is Claimed, is
specimen of the missing link be.
tween man and the anthropid apes.
This little waif came from Borneo, and
belongs to the Lao country; she is
called Krao. The body Of this child is
completely covered with a coating OF
dense black hair, quarter Of an inch
long; the skin, such of it as is seen, is
of a dark olive brown. Krao has
many ofth traits of the monkey, she
has the full pouched cheeks, into
which she stuffs her food monkey fash
ion. Like the anthropoids. her feet
are prehensile, and the hands so fexi-
bic that they bend back over the wrists;
the lips protrude, so as to give her a
chimpanzee look there are some
symptoms of an aborted tail in the
llongation of the spinal column. Yet
this monkey like creature appears to be
as intelligent as a European child of
her own age. She is playful and gen.
tie. and can artlculate many English
words, which she uses intelligently. 1t
seems there are numerous specimens of
the tribe to which she belongs in Bor-
neo. They are a hairy race, and
when they reach adult lite are of low
order of intelligence. Little Karo was
great favorite at the Aquarium, and
the Darwinians, of course, claim that
she and her kindred establish the
probability of the theory that the hui
man rae did descend from some ex-
tinct species of anthropoid apes
DeWOreSf.
But very few know how to pick poui-
try speedily and without tearing the
flesh. This is the proper way, and
then you can do the work speedily, and
not have to pick the feathers one at a
time with the thumb and forefnger.
Hang the fowl by the feet with small |
cord; then, with small knife, give one
cut across the upper jaw, opposite the
corners of the mouth; after the blood
stops running stream, place the
point of the knife in the groove in the
upper part of the mouth, run the blade
up into the back part of the head, which
will cause a twitching of the muscles.
Now is the time, for every feather yields
as if by magic, and there is no danger
of tearing the most tender chicken.
Before he attempts to kick you can
have HIM perfectly bare.

proposed for this city differed from that

adopted in Memphis.
Mr.. Paynter also asked a number of
questions, and said that it was mat
ter of such great importance that he
considered 1t necessary to have every
point fully explained.
When the part Of the report relative
to allowing the sewers to discharge into
the Christiana was read, Mr. Bailey in
terrupted the speaker by sayingit thu
contents Of cess pools and other often
sive matter were discharged into the
Christiana, it was certain that vast
deal Of it would lodge along the flats.
This he thought would generate gases
that I'M short time would render the
southern and eastern parts of this city
liable to contagious and infectious
diseases. He owned some little pro-
perty in that section, but If this sewer
age business was carried into effect, he
would sell it and remove as soon as
possible
Several other members expressed
their views on the matter, and when
Mr.. Herring had finished reading, Mr..
Talley moved to accept the report and
to have 200 copies printed. The motion
was amended by Mr.. Paypter to make
it 500 copies, and the motion a. amend
ed was adopted. The report was then
referred back to the Comanittee on
Sewerage, with instructions to report
measures for raising means. etc, if it
was thought advisable to introduce the
system.
