The Virtue of Good Realah.

To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER
 It is surprising how the generality ot peo- pie are satisfied with simplS comfortable health, congtantly indule:ng in habits that, even if they do not seem to in;ure them, they know well enough do not benefit them. In our schools and in our families every thing Is taught except the most important thing of all, the lays of health. Now think VIC ought to have standard of health just as well es a standard of right living. Every true Christian is desirous of growing better every day. How many expressions of regret we hear at an experience meeting over the little progress made during the month. It is rare thing to see ons trying to improve their health from day to day, or seeking 50 know the laws that govern their bodies, and striving to obey them. Like ths Catholics who place their souls in the keeping of their priests, they place their bodies in the care of the physician Ia the numberless ways in which fthrouSh their indulgences) people undermine their health, 1t is a wonder there is no more disease than there is. Violation of law commences from infancy, and as the result nearly half the deaths occur before the age of seven. Children gre not born into this world to die, but to live. If they were taughS more of the principles of self denial by their parents, they might more successfully resist the temptations of life when they go out from under their care into the world.
 Violation of health laws are universal, and penalty will alWaya follow, although 1t may be delayed faa a while. Take for instance the amount of improper food eaten, and the excess of good food (not only at regular times, but at irregular times) the amount of tobacco smoked, chewed and snufed, the amount of permeated and distilled liquors drunk, and no wonder 8 fearful amount of lke sG H. not only bent on destroying themselves, but to do it as speedily as possible. The results are seen everywhere and in every shape and still do not serve as warning to those who are only commencing the work of self-abuse. Every one of these victims of violated law

have said once that these vices dc not injure them, when they dc they will stop committing them; but when they do find it out they have lost the power. The few who wake up to their condition and are by pain reminded of their course and reform, find the way back 8 tedious turning and almost hopeless one.
 Gluttony and drunkenness are the two cry ing sins of our age, and the gospel of self denial must be oftener preached if we would be saved. Offering our bodies as living sao- rifices, and keeping them under, never has been pressed homo to our consciences as Paul meant 1t to be. We who are Christians are not wholly guiltless. Let us reform ourselves and then become apostles of reform to oth- CTS. Let us not only be temperate in all things, good ourselves, but advocate 1t to others. Let us not only rigidly abstain from all things bad, but industriously induce others to do go. There is SO much suffering in the world as the result of sin, we all have plenty of work to do towards alien ating it. But let us remember that in the proportion that we obey the laws of life our selves, will our influence over others be eff fectual. Let us deny ourselves then, not alone for the benefit which we will experience but for the benefit that will accrue to others.

 The Hon. Dwight May sabin, the new
 chairman of the Republican national com
 mittee, was born in Danielsonville in this
 State, and went, when about twelve years
 old, with his father and mother to Illinois. Here he obtained an academic education, and
 studied to become lawyer, but abandoned
 this study on account Of his health. His
 father died when he was quite young, leav-
 ing him with considerable property to care
 for his mother and younger brother, Jay
 Sabin. While rowing over the western
 country, partly in search of health, partly in
 connection with his business ventures, he
 came upon the village which is now the city
 of Saltwater in Minnesota. He became con-
 nected, about 1867, with MT. Seymour, who was carrying on business there of manufao- turing threshing machines, wagons, door sashes, and other articles in general use among the agrioulturists of the west. The DuS10eSS 6OOU DeCHLn0 U VSky Ouos

 get out. The car was stopped, but two per sons entering the car prevented the lady
 from reaching the step of the car at once. l The driver started the car, the lady holding
 on to the rail of the same. The jolting of the car threw the woman off, and she was seri- 1 ously injured. Verdict in the lower court 1 for the plaintiff for five thousand dollars. Verdict affirmed by the Supreme court upon ! the ground of the fault of the driver in start I ing and not upon request stopping the car. 1 As to damages, "both actual and prospective
 damages should be allowed, approximately, ] in the exercise of sound discretion" In l this case the defense set up the plea of con- l t1ibutory negligence on the part of the plaintiff. The court did not find the facts to 1 be such as to warrant the application of the rule of the law in favor of the defendant

Those who think riding a bicycle or tri- cycle is healthy amusement, or work, have strong supporter in Dr. B. w. Richardson, the well known English authority on,hy- gisne. At the annual meeting of the Tricy- cIe Union in London few days since, he said that in his vacation hs pursued cycling as great pleasure and as g greater restorative. He regarded this recreation as one of the healthest of all exercises, and was deeply grateful fer the perfection to which the machines had been brought. He deemed it best that the bicyolists and tricyclists should each have separate and independent organi- zation for the protection of their rights and the promotion of their interests. seeing that there were large body of ladies and gentle men who were essentially tricyclists and nothing else. His desire vas that cycling should be not only one of the most delight ful and healthy of recreations, but intellee- tually one of the most useful as well.
