the danger from oyer-taxation OF the
mental powers during childhood, and
emphasizes the necessity for the fullest
amount OF sleep during this period OF
life, when the functional activity OF the

Parents are apt to forget the need of
brain-rest during school life In their de-
sire for the child's mental advance
ment, and often censure the schools for
results which are often solely due to
their own lack of proper care and
watchfnlness In permitting habits and
methods OF living out Of school hours,
which are detrimental TO mental and
physical healthfulness, There are many
things connected with our present
school system which are unphysiologi-
cal and injurious; but 1t must also be
remembered that during eighteen hours
Of the day tho child is subject to other
influences which, although different in
character, may be capable of causing
quite as much injury as those arising
from the public schools. Improper hy-
gienic conditions and bad habits of
living are by no means confined to the
daily session OF school life. The home
life is strictly within the parents keep
ing, and, before holding the school re-
sponsible for given case of ill-health.
IL may be well TO learn the manner in
which the child IL allowed to spend his
time outside of school, and especially
those hours which should be devoted to
sleep. The legitimate educational work
is, Of itself, sufficient to fully engage
the mental powers of the child; and,
when not in school, he should be kept
as free as possible from over-excitement
or exhausting pleasures. The practice
now too common among parents of per-
uniting their children to engage in the
fashionable frivolities and designations
OF life, with their attendant evils of ov-
or stimulation and late hours, cannot
be too strongly condemned.
One OF the effects OF orr present high
pressure style of living is TO cause an
increased development Of the nervous
system. which Is sure TO be transmitted
in greater or less degree. giving to
the children Of coming generations an
abnormal susceptibility of the nervous
system, and rendering them unable to
bear with safety those burdens of life
which, under ordinary circumstances,
arc not injurious to weI-balanced
mind. Children inheriting the nervous
diathesis will be found in our public
schools in increasing numbers in the
years to come, unless some radical re-
forms in our methods of living are eff
fected. To deprive thes" children of
the fullest amount of Sleep. and permit
amusements which encroach upon the
hours of rest, or unduly stimulate the
nervous system, is to increase a thous-
and-fold the danger Of mental disaster
in the years to come when the individ-
ual engages in the active competitions
of life. Sleep is the rest Of tie brain.
and is never more essential 10 mental
than during the formative

Mental activity Is carried on at tho
expense OF brain tissue. With every
operation of the mind there is an actual
disintegration OF the cerebral cells. To
repair this constant waste. the brain. in
common with every other organ of the
body, requires rest, and this Is obtained
chiefly during sleep. Hence. to curtail
the hours OF rest Is to imperil the integ-
rity OF the brain. for the waste will then
exceed the repair. The brain is the
most delicate and complicated struct-
ure OF the human body; with proper
care il is capable of a vast amount OF
labor. No person, however, can afford

Ten Thousand People At The Shore On
 The Fourth-Busy Times-A Grand
 Day At Savin Rock. .
 There were fully ten thousand people at the shore Saturday. The great majority went down by the horse cars and hundreds by ba1ges, cabs, hacks, and, in fact, all sorts of vehicles were brought into use. The horse car company had nineteen cars and one hundred and forty horses on the road all day, and they did wonders in transporting the crowds with but little delay and that occasioned by cars getting off the track at the turnouts, which was unavoidable. The Peo- pie commenced going down as early as eight in the morning, and from that time until i've o'clock in the evening there was constant flow of people to the shore. One noteworthy feature of the day was the absence of any rowdyism and the comparatively small num- Der of drunks for the Fourth. Constable Clinton and his assistants were not compelled to make any arrests, although an immense amount of peer and liquor was drunk. The landlords or the different hotels, saloons and restaurants reaped harvest. Landlord MoegliD5 of LIie Hinnan House had the front of his hotel handsomely decorated with bunting All
 were loud in praise of the excellent treatment they received. His shore dinner was way above par. The Hill brothers were complete ly overrun with orders ali day for thelr was also tastefully decorated with the stars and stripes and Landlord Freeman and his assistants had their hands full both at the Sea View and the Beach House In
 providing for all, which he accomplished
 to the satisfaction of all. Landlord Lucas,
 4l.a r Tborooa Sfraat thOnQh
 off the main thoroughfare, did big business, and his COSY house was thronged all day un- til late in the evening. Railroad Grove was
 packed all day, but Landlord Putnam man. aged his restaurant in his usual satisfactory manner. Although his supplies were well
 nigh exhausted before midnight, he had however, enough for all, well as Landlord Twitche1I of the Massasoit, on Grove street. The flying horses and the bicycle rink fairly coined money by the way the nickels and
 dimes came in. The Strasburg clock
 received a good share of atten-
 tion. By the way, MT. Hagal proprietor, was formerly an engineer on the New York Central railroad. He built the clock himself, working upon it all his spare hours for seven years.

OLD CITIZENS PROTEST.
They Have A Word To Say About Cannon Firing On The Ever Glorl- ous Fourth of July.

They Have A Word To Say About
 Cannon Firing On The Ever Glorl-
 ous Fourth of July.
 Several prominent old citizens wish to ex-
 claim against having the national salute on
 the glorious Fourth of July fired down near
 the sewer dock. The guns were fired on the
 old Hoadley place on Water street. What old citizens especially object to is that they
 did not hear the guns and want to know if patriotic feeling is dying out. Admitting cheerfully that it is good idea not to have the guns belch forth their fire and flame on the old Green, for the sake of the public in general, they maintain that the city ought to buy some Long Toms that can be heard for miles and that the Fourth of July cannon firing be done on the top of East Rock They don't like the noise in the center, but it st1rs the patriotic blood and the memory of a long and glorious succession of noisy Fourths ot July when there was something beside the bursting of a cannon cracker and the nolse of little frecrackers to fire the heart with pa triotic feeling.
