CAN ANIMALS COUNT

A Pelican Which Possessed tho Faculty

Houzeau do 10 Hale tells Of pelican
living in . hsherman's family at Santo
Domingo that was fed upon the refuse Of
the hsh-cleaning. Looking for its food, it
went to the shore every day and waited
for the boats to come back. The fisher
men rested on Sunday, and the bird &C.
quired so clear q notion~of the return OF
that day, when it had to fast that it
would not stir from the tree on which it
was accustomed to spend its .time. It Is
not necessary to suppose that'the pelican
had learned to count tho SIX Iays at the
end Of which its masters would not go
fishing; but while it really estimated
daily the time when 1t must makeits ex.
cursion to the shore, 1t was informed OF
the return of Sunday by observation of
what was going on in the house, as, for
instance, by the fishermen putting on
their Sunday clothes; in the same way as
the dog knew when its master was going
to hunt by seeing him with his gun and
game bag. In such instances, animals
show that they have the faculty Of associ
ating ideas, of observing consecutive
facts, and establishing a correlative con-
been proved by abundance Of other evil

telligence than acquaintance with the ten
signs exposing the first ten numbers, or
the use of q system OF numaration to ex-
press larger numbers. Mime. Cle,nenct

PHYSICAL EXERCISE.

In Order to BE of Benefit 1t Must Be Taken
In Moderation.
A. Il. Brown, who has just been en-
gagged by the New York Police Depart
ment to introduce the Boston system
into New York, says: 1.-The developed
muscle is not SO good as the normal
muscle. Let the muscles remain soft
Exercise, not to abnormally increase
the muscle, but merely to keep up the
health. When you have succeeded
through training and handling weights
in making the muscles hard, corded
and knotted, you have injured your
self You have, in a measure, de-
stroyed the elasticity of the muscles.
What man requires is a symmetrical
development, and that may be secured,
not through gymnastic exercise, but
through Diet gentle exercise and de-
veloping the chest. I am more and
more convinced every year of my life
that all man needs in the way of ex-
ercise to keep him in health is the use
of calisthenics, two-pound dumb-bells
and a good, stiff walk. Never exer-
else within an hour before or
after meals and not sooner
than three hours after q
heavy dinner. Exercise outside if
possible, After exercise take cold
shower if the system will stand it;
otherwise, tepid sponge bath. In
general the system is benefited after a
cold shower if reaction sets in within
FIVE or ten minutes after drying with
coarse towel. If, however, the shower
is painful, and is followed by chill
and feeling of lassitude, do not take
it, as it is injurious to you. One
should on no account exercise In his
street garments. Nature gives the
longest life to the sedentary animal.
The man who vegetables, only doing a
moderate amount of exercise, preserv-
ing a calm and even temperament, en-
joys the longest span. IN T. Press.
