An English physician Of great eminence
has just given us his opinion about proper
exercise for children He says: an the
child the physiological craving for move
ment shows itself with the unrestrained
freedom of the natural animal. If a
healthy baby is allowed to have free ylay
of its limbs it will go through a series of
improvised acrobatic performances, twist
ing its limbs and turning them into knots
that might excite the envy of profess
sional contortionist"
1t is an excellent plan to give an infant
muscular freedom for some time every
day; it should he disincumbered of any
| superfluous clothing, and laid on a rug or
lowed to kick and throw itself to its heart
content. On the general principle, appar-
emily, that every natural tendency is the
prompting of the evil spirit, it used to be
the universal custom to restrain the move
ments of infants limbs by swathing them
in innHmerable bandages, as if they were
diminutive mummies. With the eager
life within them thus "cabin'd, cribbed
confined" the poor little things must have
been mere bundles Of helpless misery.
AS the child grows older the boisterous
ness with which it romps may be taken a.
a pretty sure index of its health. But by
/ long continued confinement and restraint
that is, by being made to live under totally
unnatural conditions-this wholesome ex
uberance Of vitality may be lost, and give
place to listlessness and even positive dis
/ like Of play.-New York Post.

We are too prone to measure woman's
worth by her condition in life. Only last
week | saw the wife of well known New
York millionaire enter one of the great
hospitals of the town. After bit, curl
osity tempted me to follow, and for two
hours watched that woman going through
the wards Of the sick, dispensing here some
dainty from maids basket, there a smile,
and again CHEEKY word. All the patients
knew her, and in dozen instances did see
the stricken sufferers kiss ner ungloved
hand in gratitude, and close their eyes as a
silent little prayer went up for this woman
who, so beautifully blessed herself, did not
forget that there were others less fortunate.
And this is not an exceptional case, but one
which you can see in the hospitals and in
situations of the great cities of our land al
most every day.
Many milionaire's wife is today sus-
tanning the hands of the noble band of
women who are striving to bring sunny
spots in the lives of our working girls. OF
course, there are women of vast worldly
means who live within themselves, regard
less of the want which exists at their very
doors. But because such women-fewer
than the average woman believes-unfort-
unately exist it is unfair to judge all rich
women alike. Because the church has
within its doors people who it would be
better were they on the outside, is no cri-
terion by which to judge the thousands of
God sainted men and women who are BEN
edictions to the world at large. Too little
credit is given the wealthy classes for the
good which Is often done with the riches
at their command.-Ladies'H Home Journal.

1t goes without saying that IMAM
woman" is generally bright, CHEEKY, at
tractive, and something that passes for
being pretty. The man himself couldn't,
for the life of him, tell just what it is. The
whole thing is balanced with common
sense. Being attractive she is most essen
TALLY feminine. To be thoroughly femi-
nine she is well dressed. And well dressed
Is not silk, satin or velvet. 1t is some
thing-a cotton or wool or anything
which fits well and has dash of chic in
dividuality about it.
She never comes in and asks for work to
do as if she expected to be refused She
comes in with the dignity and smile of a
woman who is conscious of her power to
accomplish something, and her manner
gives an impression which is confirmed
afterward by her willingness, pluck and
perseverance. While her manner in ask
ing for work does not suggest that she is
asking favor, afterward she never for
gets that It was a kindness to take her at
her own valuation, and her aim is not to
disappoint those who have believed in her
Philadelphia Times.

The women one meets are divided into
two classes now-the woman who has her
spring gown and the woman who has not,
and 1t is amusing to see her of the latter
category wrestle with her ideas of decorum
when she passes her sister woman In spring
gorgeousness. There is an alert anxiety on
her face which sharpens into curiosity as
the new gown approaches her. She takes
in quickly the hang of the skirt, the cut Of
the coat, the decoration of the waistcoat.
She could tell you the number Of buttons
on the jacket, the exact shape of the collar,
the design of the trimming, the very hooks
and eyes that mysteriously fasten it, But
the crucial point is the back.
Vainly she tightens the reins of her self
control, vainly fixes her eyes on the near
est shop window Wild horses could not
draw her head in the opposite direction
She must see that skirt, and in spite of her
good resolutions she turns around and
takes it in. Now, the woman in whose
mind the momentous question is settled,
whose spring gown hangs safely in her
wardrobe If it does not adorn her fair per-
son, goes sereneiy on her way like a full
rugged ship under favoring breezes.
Step near the anxious woman, and you
will hear her say to her companion, 'I'll
have my coat cut like that in the back"
81 think that silk would be pretty with my
old wool. Wonder where she found itS"
or 81 can't decide whether to have ruffle
or piping on" and she darts into shop
where something in the window pleases
her. Your sympathy irresistibly goes out
to that woman who is 50 perplexed and
anxious when you first see her, but as you
walk on you find hundreds like her staring
into shop windows and furtively glancing
about for new ideas on her neighbours

1t Is plainly evident from the stu
alton of affairs in Haiti that the
black migrate president, Hippolyte,
will not long hold his place, and when
he falls, although he hasn't far to fall,
being so unimportant factor in the
worlds makeup, it will nevertheless be
a very gratifying case of that retribu-
ton which should always follow such
ingratitude as his.
Hippolyte practically holds his posi-
ton by the grace of the United States
and his late performances in connec-
tion with affairs concerning this gov
eminent exhibit the fact that he is
not only an migrate, but altogether
without character, and lacking in any
of the graces that should adorn ruler,
be he ever so insignificant as to his
| political position. Had it not been for
the friendly interest and interpOsition
Of the United States in the matter Of
Haiti and its government, Legitime
could not have been disposed and Hip
poyte would never have been presi
dent, and that would have been a
blessing to HippOlyte for then he
would have gone down in history as a
patriot instead of a fallen migrate as
he will. His duplicity and cunning as
well as his PuDic-faith, peFiidiousHess
and turpitsde in the matter under
consideration is briefly told as follows:
In return for aid from the United
States in breaking the blockade estab-
lished by the then President Legitime,
whereby General Hippolyte defeated
Legitime's forces and became presi-
dent himself, the latter agreed to give
the United States lease on the Mole
st. Nicholas harbor. This agreement,
however, he has never kept, and in
January last when Minister Douglass
and Admiral Gherardi were endeayOr-
ing to secure the lease, they were
rudely rebuffed by the prime minister.
The leave of absence recently granted
Fred Douglass lisa protest against this
unwarranted action in adding injury
TO insult and unless steps are taken
10 comply with the agreement the
leave will in all probability be made
indefinite Already the republic is in
the throes Of another revolution and
there is little hope that President
! inn or .f 70
eldom that a ruler makes himself so
unpopular as has this one in so short
a time. Not only has he broken faith /
with us, but with his own people as
well. His sins are finding him out
early and the mistake made in eleva-
ting such an unworthy man to the
presidency is certain of being rectifed
at an early date.

DE LESSEPS

The sympathetic, who observe the
matter, will deeply sympathize with
grand old De Lesseps in his failure to
obtain funds for the continuance of
work on his Panama canal, and bis
consequent financial collapse. In the
great enterprise he inaugurated and
successfully carried out at Suez, ne did
the commerce of the world meal.
culable good, and not less would have
been the success OF the Panama
scheme, though the Nicaragua canal
will, to all intents and purposes,
answer. The persecution and prose
cution Of De Lesseps, because of his
failure in his last scheme, appears to
this people to be brutal and migrate
full, all things considered, for the fail
ure is evidently not his fault. The
Panama canal was his greatest and
last life work, and he expected it to re-
dound to his own glory and to prove a
boon to mankind. That he believed
his ideas we're practical, is evident
from the years of unremitting toll
devoted TO the project. That there
were others equally as sanguiue of
success, is evidenced from the millions
Of dollars placed at his disposal. For
years it seemed as though the great
ditch was sink-hole for gold, and
hundreds of depleted exchequers told
tales OF how successfully it had
worked. An end came 10 all this Civ
ing; not that they despaired of sue
cess, but that they thought the cost
too great. Not being actuated by the
same purposes as the protector, they
took mercenary views and quit giving
money. There can be no question as
TO the disappointment OF this at least
temporary failure. Seldom has the
world ever seen any more magnificent
undertaking, or one that promised
more If successful. 1t is to be hoped
that the difficulties between the pro-
jector and patrons can be adjusted md
the canal carried to completion.
With so much already done, the world
cannot afford to have the enterprise
fail now.
