MAGAZINE NOTICES.

The Andover Review for July has several
articles of .superlatiye interest. One is on
Socialism. which it advocates as the panacea
of present poverty, and of nearly all the ills
to which flesh is heir. This rose colored
view is scarcely warranted by what we know
of men in masses. Still it is wise and we'll
to hear both sides argued, and the negative
Is the side 0ftenest presented. Another
writer treats Of Theology under Improved
conditions, and shows how the principle of
progress prevails here as elsewhere. Onr
thoughts widen with the circles of the sun.
and there Is yet new light to break upon the
church and the world. Still greater interest
attaches to the paper on the late DR.. Neyins.
whose theological opinions are subject to a
searching review and defended as trendine
in the right direction. 1t Is not probable
that many readers of the Andoyer will 90
along with the essayist. DIR. Neyips was a
strenuous advocate for high sacramentaI and
sacerdotal views Of the Christian ministry
and church, coinciding in many points with
the leaders of the sO-called Oxford move
ment in the church of England, where these
views have met with much favor But the
bent of New England is quite different We

The City and the Water Company,

The agreement between the Water COM
pany and the commissioners on behalf of the
city to refer the question of the reasonable
ness OF the formers rates to Chief Justice
Peters for decision will command the gen.
eral approval of the people. Judge Peters
Is In position TO hear the question impair
TALLY, and his decision will, no doubt, do ex-
act justice to both parties to the controversy.
Inc agreement the water company made
with the city in 1868 provides that the rates
charged to water takers shall be reasonable
as compared with the rates In other cities,
with due consideration to the cost and in
come Of the WORKS." so that the question at
issue is broader one than the question OF
whether the rates of the Portland company
are lower or higher than those of cities OF
like population and OF similar situation
The agreement implies that the rates Of the
Portland company may be in excess of those
OF other cities and still be reasonable. 1t is
perfectly obvious that for a determination of
the question whether the rates are reason
able within the meaning of the agreement
knowledge Of the cost of the works and of
their income is absolutely necessary. This
the water commissioners on the part of the
city have been unable to obtain. OF course
the water company intend to give their rates
and income to the arbitrator. But there
may arise difference of opinion as to what
Is meant by cost and income in this agree
ment; indeed there is such difference of
opinion already. The determination of the
meaning OF these two words will have a very
important bearing on the controversy. II
by cost is meant all the money expended on
the works since their inception, and by in
come is meant only the income arising from
water takers in the city of Portland much
higher rate can be justified as reasonable for
giving ''due consideration to the cost and in
come Of the works." than if to ascertain the
cost there is to be deducted the amount ex-
pended for the renewal of the works on ac-
count OF the failure Of the original pipes to
stand the pressure put upon them, and to as
certain If the income of the amount received
from takers along the whole line of the work
is to be reckoned. On these two questions
there is likely to be radical difference
Of opinion between the city and the
company, and the settlement Of them
will have very important bearing upon the
fixing of the rates. The city and the com
pany will both be represented by able coun-
sci, and the claims and contentious of both
will be ably presented. 1t will, therefore,
be work Of supererogation to submit any
considerations bearing on these pointsn ad-
yauna

equally able remain In the safety and COM
tort OF home without being held to the heavy
responsibility or rendering compensatory
sacrifices" But some one says, ''the CON-
pensatory sacrifices demanded are to heavy"
Let us see, the man who went in 1861
gave two or three years of peril
Gus and killing labor at small pay;
came home to find himself obliged to enter
industrial or professional life behind his old
companions, and now in his advanced life
may be getting SIP a month to compensate
him for the loss of a leg or hand, or "
month as dependent" pension, given MN
because he cannot earn his living. Does TINS
begin to equalize the sacrifices of the men
who went and those who remained at home?
We think II this question should be asked
any citizen of Maine on the eve of another
war the answer would be, TT is not an
eaualIzation; 1t is merely an evidence of the
good will of the government, which attempts
to equaIize as much as possible" OF course
now, when the cat is all belled, there are
mary who think or profess to think It is all
the equalization necessary. 1t is the tower
OF strength to a republic that its burdens
are as nearly equal as possible. Is it not
good policy to keep them as nearly equal as
possible?

readers of that paper how lie trains for a
race. He says;

mile. running perhaps two hundred yards at

Then l return and take light shower bath,
after which my man rubs me down with
flesh gloves, rubbing In all directions. After
wards he goes over me with his hands and
then fans me dry with towel. then rest

breakfast. / eat for this meal some fruit
and small steak, and drink glass of milk

hour, go for two or three miles walk
Then go to my boat-house and am rubbed

course, rowing from twenty-six to thirty-two
strokes a minute. This is simply an exercise

should bear in mind: never leave your race
on the river, that is, never row six races
week before the day of the race comes. 1t
