Mountain Climbin. for Invalids.

Oertel has extended his advocacy of
mountain climbing, as a curative agency,
to other forms Of heart disease besides
such as are dependent upon or associated
with corpulency-namely, to all forms of
weak heart" and also to valvular de-
fects. For this purpose he prefers re-
sorts surrounded by mountains, on the
sides of which graduated walks, of in
creasing difficulty, and extending up to
between three Thousand and four'thou-
sand feet can be mapped out. ut is by
no means matter of Indifference how
you walk up these ascents. 1t is to be
done in strictly prescribed manner
The hills are to be assembled slowly, and
the pace must be as even as possible, with
no talking and no Interruptions. This
may not be attainable at first, but it is
the end to be aimed at
'Then the pace and the breathing must,
in sort of way, keep time; with one
step the patient should make an inspira-
ton and with the next an expiration;
both acts should be equal and regular in
length, neither longer nor shorter than
the step. One foot is raised with the be-
ginning Of the inspiration and put down
as it ends; the other foot makes its step,
in the same manner. with the expiration.
These precautions r:ust be infinitely OBJ
served, or palpitation and difficulty of
breathing will be induced. The patient
may lean on stick, but he must not
pause often In his walk; but he may rest
for half an hour or an hour after the com
pletion of one of the appointed tasks.
The cure will be slow and gradual, re-
qriring great patience; it should last from
four to six weeks, and it may have to be
several times in the year.

Chinese Opposition to Steamboats,.

Among the remarkable reasons adj
vanced by the Chinese for opposing the
introduction of steamboats, on the Upper
Yangtse is the allegation that a very
fierce and strong species of monkeys live
along the river where it breaks through
the mountains, and that they would not
fail to hurl large stones from the heights
down upon the steamers, probably sink
ing them, while the authorities would be
powerless to prevent the outrage or arrest
the offenders.
The real obstacle in the way is not
monkeys, but about 20, 900 junk men, who
think steamboats, would take away their
