Recreation.

There is homely saying among the
fishermen "that those who will not
mend their nets will soon be unable to
catch fish," and one is seldom found so
improyident as to let a hole grow larg-
er and larger until the net is useless.
The nearest approach to absolute rest
is sleep. and Of this every man, woman
and child should have abundance, pro-
portioned to his constitution and occu-
patton; but there is a relative rest,
quite important, and more neglected
by most busy men and women, this rest
is recreation. The II haven't time"
excuse, although as popular as ever, is
sadly thrcadbare. A man owning
property can afford to invest thous-
and dollars though he withdraw it from
active business, if he is sure that the
money will double itself We all have
twenty-four hours every day to invest,
and if one hour withdrawn from BUSH
ness can be better invested, is it not a
wise thing to do itP Relaxation, how
ever, TO be profitable, must be whole
hearted. 1t is not rest for the business
man to bring his affairs and worries
home with him. 1t is not rest for the
student to brood over theories and for
mulus when he walks, neither is it rest
to take ones fear and anXieties to our
friends table. If we have no heart to
throw off these burdens, we should
make the effort in spite of ourselves.
We have been bound 10 our cares as
the convict is to his ball and chain, and
IT is time to master circumstances, in
stead of being their slaves. Mental
slaves are more independent upon the
physical condition than we are inclined
10 think. Irritability means overstrain-
ed nerves; the blues" and "black but
teraies' are other names Of indigestion
and poor circulation. Recreation, it
is to be remembered is neither dissipa-
ton, nor yet absence of activity. Com
plete change of thought is Relation;
and Hood is quoted by recent writer
as saying that the Quaker always en-
Joys life, for he makes q pleasure of his
business and a business of his pleasure.

The Triumph of A photographer.

Americans have been for years past
acquiring q very brilliant reputation
abroad. And now comes to the front at
Brooklyn, Mr. T. K. French, who has
managed to do what nobody could do
before-photograph the human larynx
when in motion. DIR. Lenox Brown, OF
London, has obtained some photographs
OF professional singers larynx while
IN the act Of singing. He made even
photograph of the chords when they
we're producing falsetto notes. But he
succeeded in doing it only in this parti-
cular case, in which the singer, possess
ing an unusual unirritable throat du
ms best to help him in his experiments.
Mr. French, on the other hand, man
aged by use of a pistol camera and
magnitying glass, to obtain photographs
OF all kinds OF throats- healthy as well
as lntirm, irritable as well as unirritable
working as well as at rest. The great
point was to catch the impression as
quickly rs possible, and, by means OF
ms pistol camera, be managed to snap
Impressions Of deep inspirations as well
's exprations, of contraltO, soprano,
ana all kinds Of deep and high notes.
ne obtained even Expressions OF the
P9sterior mares, so difficult Of access in
