How many take wrong view of
life, waste all their energies and des-
troy their nervous system in endeav-
oring to accumulate wealth, without
thinking of the present happiness
they are throwing away. 1t is not
wealth or high station which makes
one happy. Many of the most
wretched beings on earth have both
but it is radiant, sunny spirit which
knows how to bear trials and enjoy
comforts, and thus extract happiness
from every incident in life.

Physical Development tor Girls.

The mothers responsibility for the
physical woll-bcing of her family
does not stop, however, with the
provision of nourishing food. If
there are girls in the family, the
same care must be given to their
physical development that il consid
cred necessary for the boys. There
will be NJ ilatchested women when
common sense regulates tho daily
life of growing girls. There is, sor-
tunately, so widespread an interest
in physical culture, nowadays, y
few girls have to be urged TO take
the needed exercise but Judgment
and intelligence should direct this
SO that it be adapted to individual
needs. 1t is also as great sin to
allow child to take on too much
flesh as it is not to train the body to
take it on in the right place; aud
wise exercise aud diet can regulate
both evils The time is fortunately
fast approaching when mother
must feel it disgrace not TO know
how to do this, and recognize it as
of the first importance to acquire the
knowledge necessary to secure the
physical perfection of her children

An Old English Chestnut Tree.

It is said that the largest chestnut
tree known in the world Is at Mount
Etna, in Sicily, but one Of the Oldest
and most remarkable trees in Great
Britain Is chestnut at Torworth, the
residence Of the earl of Ducie, near
Bristol. In the reign of Stephen, who
assembled the throne in 11s5, it was, &C.
cording to the Naturaliats' Journal,
deemed so remarkable for It's size that,
as appears upon record, 1t was well
known as signal boundary to the
Manor Of Tortworth. It seems proba'
BILE that this tree is thousand years
old at least 1t is still in very fair vig-
or, and last year produced large crop
Of nuts. It measures nearly City feet
In circumference; the body Is short
only about ten feet in height-and 1t
then divides into three huge trunks,
one Of which measures nearly thirty
feet in girth.
