Danger in Excess Of Exercise.

Housework, chores, gardening, walk
ing. climbing. cycling, running, SWIM
ming and many other sports give just
the kind Of exercise that is indicated in
certain conditions, due regard being
had to the physiological effects Of vary
ing dosage. Oertel has shown how the
simple exercise Of walking may be
adapted to sufferers from cardiac de-
bility by prescribing the distance and
speed and the number and length Of
the rests on definite paths graduated
according to their slope. His interest
ing and original work has not only
given a new direction to the treatment
Of certain cardiac affections, but Is
destined to have an important infiu-
ence In establishing accuracy in the
prescription Of exercise. Whoever has
studied the map Of the envirous Of
Reichenhall. Bavaria, prepared by
Oretel for the application Of his meth
cd, will acquire a vivid idea Of what
precision Of dosing in exercise means.
In this map the different paths suita
BILE for the work are marked in four
different colors, to indicate those that
are nearly level, those slightly sloping,
moderately sloping and steep, and fig
ures are placed along each route to
show the space that should be trav-
srsed In each quarter hour.
The locality itself is prepared for it's
remedial use by placing benches for
resting at suitable distances, and by
marking ON certain trees near the path
circles, colored to correspond with the
map, to indicate the difficulty Of that
particular section. By systematic prac-
tice on the easier paths the heart and
system are progressively trained and
strengthened. Intelligent analysis
may do tho same work for cycling,
horseback riding. and many other IA
miliar exercises. In this way the
dosage ID practically reduced to a def
mite number Of kilogrammeters In a
given time, and a step has been taken
in placing the prescription of exercise
upon q scientific basis.-Appleton's

Khama, the famous chief Of the Ba-

admittedly high character, who has
ruled his people with singular wisdom
and ability, was In England last au-
tumn, and was there entertained a
lunch by the Duke, of Westminster and
other persons of social emineHce, the
news excited general annoyance and
disgust among the whites in South
Africa. A story was told me Of gar
den party given by the wife of lead
ing white eccleSiastic. the appearance
at which OF a native clergyman led
many of the white guests to withdraw
in dudgeon.
Once, when 1 was a guest at mis-
sion station in Basutoland, l was ask
ed by my host whether l had any OBJ
lection to his bringing in to the family
meal the native pastor, who had been
preaching TO the native congregation.
When l expressed some surprise that
he should think 1t necessary to ask,
he explained that race feeling was SO
strong among the colonists that 1t would
have been deemed improper and, in
deed, insulting to make a white guest
sit down at the same table with black
man, unless special permission had first
been given. Thus one may say that
there Is no social intercourse whatever
between the races; their relations are
purely those of business. Now and
then the black man gets ahead Of the
white, but the latters pride Of race re-
mains. l was told Of a white who con-

rare: nor does 1t appear that there are
now other irregular unions outside
marriage as there constantly were In

this respect the case of South Africa
remarkably resembles that Of the
Southern States. where also there Is
now very little mixture Of blood, though
there was a great deal fifty years ago.
Probably In both cases Ii Is better

necessity Of maintaining the service is

The maple sap il running,
And on the highest elm a crow

A close green bud the May flower lies
Upon its mossy pillow:
And sweet and low the South Wind

And through the brown fields calling
goes,
"Come, Pussy! Pussy Willow!
Within your close brown wrapper stiri
Come out and show your silver fur;
"Come, Pussy! Pussy WillOw?'
Soon red will bud the maple trees,
The bluebirds will be singing,
And yellow tassels in the breeze
Be from the poplars swinging:
And rosy will the May flower lie
Upon its mossy pillow,
But you must come the first Of all.
