THE OLYMPlAN GAMES.
PecuIi ari;Ies of an Institution That Qua
lived by aStieS.

Peculi arities OF an Institution Ihat Quo
lived by asties-
The sacred games of Olympia We're
instituted nearly seven centuries be
fore Christ; and an oath, confirmed by
sacrifice, was imposed on the athletes
before they entered the lists, binding
them to play fair, and take no fraudu-
lent advantage over the other competi-
tors.
A reference to these national festivals
of ancient Greece calls to mind their ex-
traordinary duration. There is no
modern parallel to them in that respect
We reckon our Derby, our university
boat race, our Elton and Harrow
cricket match, to be venerable institu-
tons, but they are very ephemeral OBJ
servances, in sooth, compared with,
say, the Isthmiau games, which, found
ed about Il. c. 500, still constituted,
three centuries and L nalf later, sui
ficiently important anniversary for
Flaminius to select it as the occasion
for proclaiming the liberty of Greece in
3. c. 1856. and, two centuries and half
later still, for Nerotto repeat the procla-
nation in A. d. 81. Such permanence
puts to shame the life of dynasty: and
there is certainly no important event
in our sporting world which derives its
origin from the year 1900.
But there is another remarkable fea-
ture about these gatherings, namely,
the unchanging character of the per-
forman ce enacted at them. Assuming
the era of Homer to have been i've CEN
turtles earlier than the Inauguration CT
the Isthmian games, that is about b. c.
1000, the sports which he enumerates as
taking place at the funeral of Patroclus
were identical, not only with those of
the 0lym Tian, Nemean, and 1sthmian
celebrations, but strangely similar to a
programme of the present day. Chariot
and foot races, boxing, wrestling and
putting the stone are counterparts of
competitive exercises of the nineteenth
century. -Rlacl;woOd's Magazine.

God bless the children. Any
thing that alleviateS their sufferingS
and that restores them to health
when they are afflicted is deserving
of great praise. When we consider
that half the population of the
world die before they reach the age
of five years, we can see what a
boon any remedy is that banishes
the chief danger of childhood, for
eighty per cent. of deaths in these
infants come from Group. Mothers
will read the following epistle with
interest.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Nov. goth, 1892.
My baby, nineteen months old, is very
much subject to Group. Recently we have
been induced to use Reds German Cough
and Kidney Cure and we no longer dread
these attacks. Two doses give instantre-
lief. give it freely and 90 not fear an
overdose. J. w. MARSH,
