How to Train the Boys.

DR.. Sargent, OF Hazard gymnasium.
Our schools treat a boy as profession
al trainers treat q man on the field; the
only idea is to make the boy with acer-
tain prize. They do not care anything
about his health that is nothing to them.
Their reputation is made upon the sue
cess of his entrance into college. nere

"This boy must notgo any farther. his
future prospects ought not to be sacrl-
feed In this way. Your sons success Ia
life does not depend on his going through
the Latin school. Let him step out and
take another year. DO not attempt to
crowd him. The result Of this lack OF
attention to physical training, even look
ing at it from the intellectual standpoint
is fatal.

The object Of education is to develop
the boy, not to put him through 80

there is no room for the heart and lungs

A Rowing Car.

William Spelman, the we'll known boating
man, has invented a rowing car. 1t is built
precisely like she'll, with sliding seat, out
riggers and oars. 1t is so arranged that per-
son after practice can row in it even faster
than in boat. Its construction is such that it
can be placed on tracks around large hall,
and on the evening of April Oath, at the an
uual ball of the Cumberland Rowing Associa-
ton, an exhibition will be given, and such
rowers as ConIey, Courtney, Killian and others
will take part. The car is so arranged that an
exciting race can be rowed.
