ATHLETICS.

The question of bOat-racing. from Ihs
psychological point of view, has been
recently treated of in the Hospital an
English publication. The text for the
,rticls was furnished by the Oxford
and Cambridge boat race, which was
an extremely close affair and keenly
contested up TO the finish. the winners
being only half length ahead
The argument that the Hospital
makes i that the strain falls prin-
cinallv on the two main centers OF me-
viz the heart and the nervous system
and that the strain was kept up for
twenty minutes eonsecutively. without
the slightest chance of relaxing After
such race the Hospital says; Every
man in the two boats, except perhaps
the two coxswains, must have been 10
some extent injured
The paper then proceeds 10 argue
whether AT the present stage OF the
worlds civilization we ought 10 have
contests of this kind There is no
dorbr that as long as the. Anglo-SaNon
race retains its veriliJy We shall con
time 20 have athletic contests our
love for such contests shows the sturdy
strength of our nature.
If the contestants are perfectly
sound in body and organism, the strain
of the contest does not do them harm
The harm comes not from the contest,
but from the fact that men enter who
should not do so. In all preparation
for contests there should be careful
examination of the candidate by a
competent medical man. and these eN-
aminations should be continued dur
ing the period of training.
The fact OF subjecting men 10 Sc
we're physical strain has no, necessarily.
evil effects. Turn TO the analogy OF
horses. The weIl-trained race horse is
nut 10 a severe strain throughout his
racing life. and We know that from
such fine stock spring descendants
even finer than their progenitors. The
severe strain has had no evil effect
upon them. We DO not believe that ii
has any evil effects upon the thoroughly
healthy man. To give up the practice
of athletic contests because here and
there an individual is a sufferer would
be like giving up going 10 bed because
very frequently an individual dies
there.

The quarrel with the public ana the
Tramway Company lies in this; the
Tramway Company having been de-
feated on a question of their charter
proceeded at once TO revenge itself upon
the public. This is the pettiness Of the
affair. If the Tramway Company is
wrong or right the courts will settle
the matter. But TO throw out all the
usual traffic Of Nuuauu Valley simply
because a case had come up in the
courts savors of a ciuch in monopoles
which those who know such institutions
are not liable to stand quietly This IS
= very quiet community, otherwise the
Tramway Company would quickly learn
that the public and the Tramway Com
pany are at Ioggerheads. OF course
there is only one representative Of the
Tramway Company here. and the act
ion OF the Tramway Company rests on
him. II ne is wrong headed the com
panv is wrong headed. and there the
whole matter rests.

OF land would not exceed three tons to

with a thorough knowledge of his sub
ject. The days Of happy go-lucky are
long since passed. When we had per-
fected our sugar machinery-and there
is no country in the world that pos
sesses better machinery than ours-we
had TO see what could be done TO i'm
prove the land.
DR.. MaxwelTs analyses OF fertilizers
work in two ways. They, in the first
place. protect the planters from having
an inferior class of fertilizers thrust
upon them. In the old days thousands
of dollars have been squandered upon
useless fertilizers. This can now no

foist an article lacking in any import
ant ingredient now. On the other hand.
in former times, the managers judg-
ment failed him and he asked for a fer
tilizer which was actually unsuited TO
his soil He would then blame the fer
tllIzer people for his own mistake. Hav-
ing scientific man like Dr. Maxwell
TO appeal 10, managers no longer make
such mistakes.
The fact is that scientific farming Of
the sugar estates is the rule now. The
soils are studied and analysed, and the
greatest pains are taken TO keep them
at a proper standard by the use of
proper materials. The case cited at the
beginning of this article is only one of
many. If by an expenditure OF eight
dollars per acre a plantation can pocket
one hundred and sixty dollars per acre

is very clear that science pays, and in
this materialistic age il is only what
pays" that is considered.

Objections to Endless Woe.


My second objection to endless
punishment is, its belief fills the
heart with bitterness, rObs the af-
aicted of the last drop of consola@
ton, and drives reason from her
throne, How can one take a mo-
ments peace in the belief Of endless |
suffering for himself or neighbors.
Suppose yourself pleasantly situa-
ted in your dwelling In your dwell
ing beside the sea shore. All are
at home except one STURDY son and
he has gone down upon the dark
waters. AS you rehearSe the dams
gers of the deep a storm arises. Be-
tween the lightnings vivid flash
and the thunder's burst, you hear
cry of distress You stand upon
the iron bound coast, you listen.
The voice rises higher, and above
the noise Of the angry waves you
recognize it. 1t is the voice OF
your absent son returning from the
sea. That gallant ship upon which
he sailed has been dashed upon
the rocks, aud he is clinging to the
heaving wreck. Now, can you
hear unmoved those cries for help?
! Reader, you know the thing is inn
! possible. How then can you look
over the battlements of heaven
! down the regions of infinite woe,
and hear the shriekr OF a son or
daughter and be happy? No, new
er! So you see, if you see at all,
endless misery is false. Some UNI
believer may tell you God will exN
tinguish your social sYmpathies
and thus enable you to sing sweet
hallelujahs in their damnation.
Think of it, do you expect going to
heaven will transform you into de-
mons, so that you can rejoice over
the miseries of your friends? If
you expect to retain those kind,
tender feelings in heaven that you
possessed on earth, l entreat you
to look down from your shining
seat above, and survey the millions
that are enduring the most excru.
ciating pains there. Perhaps there
is your friend, who in this life was
a benevolent and moral man. He
saw you in this world in distress
; he held your aching head, watched
by your bedside and Watered your
pillow with his tears. That friend
; who flew to your relief is now swell
tering in the flames of hell. HI
looks to you for sympathy, l ash
? are you happy to see him in suffer
ing? No mol not unless you ar,
harder than adamant. and if enter
ing heaven will change one into
fend, God grant that this bosom
may never have one aspiration tt
enter such an abode. No man ev
! er did, or can devise one drop o
consolation from a belief in tn
doctrine of endless misery. 1t fan
up flame of misery in the bosom
of him who sincerely believes it, i
| brushes the fondest hopes, and ha
broken many a mothers heart.
