Physical Culture at Home

Apropos of home gymnastics, which
every one should try to practice occasion
ally, if not daily, they should be of such
nature as to expand the chest. raise the
shoulders, draw back the head and give
erectness to the form. Going up and
down stairs end an ordinary amount OF
walking give the lower limbs abundant
exercise. The appliances provided ought
TO be of such nature as to produce the
required results with the least possible
expenditure of time. and for this purpose
nothing is equal to pulley-weIghts or
chest-weights. A pair of light dumb
bells, weighing from one to three pounds
aud single one weighing from six to
twelve pounds, are also desirable for
wrist, arm ard back exercises. Wooden
dumbbells nowadays are preferred to
iron ones, because the latter chill the
blood. To the chest weights and dumb
bells should be added one pair of light
Indian clubs. The use of these pieces of
apparatus need not disturb any one else
in the house, and. from five to fifteen
minutes daily work, although it will not
make Sandow of you, may add inches
to your chest snd strength to your arm.

HON. r.. G. HoRR.
A ROusIng and Convincing Re
publican Speech Delivered at
wingate's Hall.

The speech of Hon. r. G. Horr last nigh
speech ever delivered In this city In this O
any campaign. For over two hours he KEEP
the audience In good humor and at times
convulsed with laughter. He handled thu
subject of protection in a masterly manner
and his illustrations were such that they
were clearly understood by all. Facts re
gardIng manufacture of salt, wire nall, steel
rails, etc., were given, proving that the in
dnstries had been developed. aud the cost
made less than when the duty was imposed,
Ii you buy foreign article, you get the
goods and the foreigner gets the money ;
but If you buy at home you get the goods,
and the money circulates in the community
That is the difference. HisstYle is unique
and very effective, and it is impossible for
any one to fully appreciate it without he
hears Mr.. Horr. Speaking of Populist
theories he said they were attempting to
make something out of nothing, and this
could only be done by God Almighty. He

party was on sufficiently intlmste terms
with the Deity to act as his proxy In the
matter. The greenback and the bank note
were taken at par because there was cer-
talnty of their redemption In coin when
presented. They rested on the same basis
as an individual note. If the man could
pay his debts, his paper would be all right;
If not, it would be worthless. The same is
true of the government. While it acts
honestly with the people and had the sbil-
ity of redeeming its paper was good; but it
could not stand too much initiation. It re-
minded Mr.. Horr of a calf on his farm,
whose daily allowance was four quarts of
milk. Now, if four quarts of water were
added, the calf would have to drink eight
quarts to get his quota of milk. Suppose
this were continued for any length of
time what would become of the calf? Why
he'd bust, the speaker said
1t is impossible in short report Of Mr..
Horr's speech to give the reader any idea of
the effectiveness of his style. This must be
heard to be appreciated. He kept the large
audience of about 700 persons interested
for more than two hours, aud there was not
enc in the room who did not desire him to

Canada and tn. seal FISHING.

An exchange tersely remarks. 1t is not
probable tbae. the United States will
make war upon Canada because she seizeda
couple of pleasure boats owned by Amer
leans who neglected to take out fishing
license, but the episode will not strength
en the bonds of friendship between those
two countries. Sir Charles Upper says
he is determined to prevent further In
fringement of the Canadian laws, and in
Inmates that the United States ought to
follow the examples of his country and
impose license similar to that exacted
by Canada. The suggestion is imperti-
nent. If the United States prefers to al
low free fishing in the waters washing
her shores that is her business. 1t is just
possible that this country will find some
other way of getting even with Canada
than oy passing laws placing restrictions
on the right to fish IN the great lakes.
In the meantime we suppose Canadians
will fish as much as they please In our
waters and Americans will be punished
for fishing in Canadian waters.

dered to the strikers, being told thatIt !

OVERCROWDING THE STUDY OF
CHILDREN.

Earnest protests are made, in the
older States, by intelligent students
of educational methods, against
the crowding of studies upon chill
dren. w. T. Harris, the Superin-
tendent of Education, under the
Federal Government, believes, that
it is doing great injury, in many
ways. Few parents are fitted,
either by education, or study, to
determine the needs of their chill
dren. At the same time, most
parents arbitrarily select the studies
to be followed. The competition
among schools, and colleges, also,
leads TO the overcrowding of stud
les. The physical basis of life is
greatly neglected, and the standing
of the child, in the various branches
of study, is looked upon as the
chief end of education.
Only within a few years have the
intelligent classes in civilized COM
munities begun to realize the SUI
preme Importance and value of ed
vocational methods, and there is
everything yet to learn. The office
of the teacher of the young should
be the first in every community.
1t should rank above that of states
man, preacher, merchant and SOL
dier, and it should receive the high
est remuneration given for any SER
vice rendered by man to his fellow
man. 1t transcends all other oc-
equations, In it's far reaching re-
suits. 1t is not strange that we are
only at the cock-crowing" of civil
ization, when the office of teacher,
In the estimate of the average citi-
zen, is rated in value as something
like that of butcher, or car driver,
or cow boy. The stock holders of
corporation will give its president
$4,000 year, because he makes
money for them. The same stock
holders will begrudge $500 a year
to the teacher in whose hands the
destiny of their children is placed.
Therefore the development of edu-
cational methods move slowly, and
among the evils which attend 1t, is
the sacrifice of the physical and in

In completing the new market,
the Government should consider
the advantages of building tanks,
in which fish may be kept alive,
until sold. Fish are now, and will
be, the best food for the people,
and the best methods should be
taken to put them into the market.
Travellers note the excellent mar
bic tanks, in the fish market of
Paris, in which the fish are kept
alive, until sold. Although brought
from points far distant from the
city, in cars, carrying large tanks
filed with sea water, their mar
ket value is very moderate. The
proximity of our market to the salt
water, will make the arrangement
inexpensive. At present the fish
are not brought in alive, but the
fishermen can be educated into the
ways of keeping them alive until
transferred to the tanks.
