quite satisfactory and marked Improvement

been no BOOM there has been a steady, healthy
volume of trade Dry goods houses have had the
best three weeks business of the year. Grocers
have been doing large business. The hardware
merchants are having fine trade, and in other
lines on the wholesale streets there has been
much more activity. On Commission row trade
has been very satisfactory since the 1st day of
the month, and commission men speak of trade
as the most satisfactory in the last three years.
New green apples, some of them very fair fruit
are on the market Blackberries, red and black
raspberries coming in quite freely, but prices
thus far have been well held. Cherries are not
so plentiful and hrmer. The receipts of straw
berries are light compared with weeks
ago. Both old and new Irish potatoes are SELL
ing well at the better prices. Produce men re-
port prices steady, receipts of poultry and eggs
more liberal Dung chickens now coming in are
larger and meeting with better sale. The pro-
vision market is tairly active at the recent
.Ision in prices. Tor hams there is an lncreas-
ing demand. The flour market is quiet I'M

THE WATER WE SHOULD DRINK.
There Seems to Be No Fixed Rule
About the Quantity.

According to Prof. Allen. says the Med
ical Times, we should drink from
one-third to two-fifths as many ounces
as we weigh in pounds. Therefore, for
a man weighing 169 pounds, there would
be required from SO to Ga ounces daily.
or from one and one.half to four pints
This the Journal of Hygiene regards as
a very indefinite answer. The amount of
water required depends on the season of
the kind OF food eaten. In hot weather
we require more than i'm cold, because OF
the greater loss through the skin, though h
this is in part made, up by the lesser
amount passed away through the kidneys.
If man labors very hard he requires
more than is his labor is light. a man
working in foundry, where the temper
ature is high and the perspiration profuse.
not infrequently drinks three or four gal
Ions daily. sad
If the food is stimulating and salty,
more water is required than { it is bland
vegetarians and those who use much fruit
require less water than those who eat
salt fish and pork, and often get along on
none except what is in their food. In most
cases our instincts tell us how much water
to drink far better than any nard or fixed
rule. For ages they have been acquiring
a knowledge OF how much to drink, and
transmitting Acknowledged getodescendants,
and If we follow them, we shall not go
far out OF the way. 1t is of more use
to US to know that pure water is essen
tial, and that impure water is one of the
most dangerous of drinks, than to know
how much of it is required daily. If one
lives in a region where the water is bad, it
should be boiled and put away in bottles
we'll corkesi in an ice chest andIn addition,
one should eat all the fruit one can, if fruit
agrees. Fruits contain not only pire water,
but salts which are needed to carry on
hcalthfully the Functions of life.

THE scHooLBoY OF SIBERIA.
Drilled Daily in the Tactics and Pre-
pared for the A riny.

The military rule that governs all Russia
extends To the schools and colleges. They
are free pubic schools, almost as fully as
with us, and are attended by the children
OF the peasants and poor townspeople, as
well as by The sons OF government officials
and rich merchants, who later are to go to
the university at Tonsk, or, perhaps, to
Russia, for their college course But here,
though some are mobiles by birth, and others
are mere peasants, all are treated ex-
actly alike, and all dress in a uniform
3 closely copied from that of the army. Even
the giris-who al ways have separate schools
from tie boys-wear q simple regulation
dress so that there is no heart burning
in little Anna, from the cottage in the
back street, because little Lady Anna,
from the great house on the square, has a
fine dress. The teachers are all regarded
as officers of the government, and wear
a military uniform. The school is drilled
in tactics every day. and conducts all it's
exercises after military models, training
its boys into solGerly young men Even
their play is mixed up with this.
The uniform is not so pretty as that

schools, and it is comical to see a little
chap, with a round rogush face under
his flat cap, wearing big boots, ands gray
overcoat belted about him with skirts
long enough to touch the ground: but
when he has earned the rank of corporal
or sergeant in his school battalion, and
feels the marks of his rank on his collar,
he struts about as proud as peacock
Gymnastics are cultivated everywhere,
and each school has a large hall devoted
to calisthenics, and to exercises upon the
bars, ladders, vaulting- horse, swinging
rings, trapeZe, etc, while many schools
have out-of-door apparatus to be used in
warm weather Everybody must gothrough
these exercises, and some excel greatly
in them, as you would expect OF the sons
of Cossacks, as many of them are-Har-

Odd Minute studies

That a great deal more can be ac-
complished by systematic reading or
study for fifteen or twenty minutes daily,
than appears possible to one who has never
tried it.
That these odd minute studies would
suffice to keep up French or German, and
to become converSant with the best

That little time given daily to the
study of science might make one a skill

That above all things it is important
to read systematically, and not TO be
guided by chance.
That it is wise TO always have at hand

vote to that daily part OF the time set

That before opening the book, one should
as far as possible, recall what was read

The RACES WILL BE CLOSE
The Local Sporting Championship
Promises to Be Holly Contested.
The New Men VIII Make a Strong
Bid for the HOnorS-List
of the Entries.

The most interesting local athletic events
of the winter Will be the skating races
which are to take place at the lee Palace
during the last three evenings ofthe week
Though Harry Stiles is likely to be the
favorite and has an excellent chance Of
retaining the championship. be will I'M
doubtetIly be pushed for the honors by sew
eral of the newcomers.
AS a rule il takes a skater some time TO
learn the knack of handling himself Well on
the long racing steels no matter how
proficient he may have been on the ordinary
short skates. This viii serve to handicap
several OF the aspiraBts for championship
honors, yet that many are ready TO take
/ their chances is shown by the large num-
Der of entrants. Among the men who
have not hitherto been seen in ICcal races,
but who are likely to prove factors in the
coming contests, are K. p. Halves, p. r.
Lewis, A. p. Morris. Ed. Hughes, David
Williams and Joe Cassin.
Some of these men are familiar to the
skating public as strong men on the short
skates Their entry into racing ranks
is looked forward TO with great interest
by their friends, and it is likely that the
races viii serve to deveiOpe some good
material. one Of the new men who may
prOvea dark horse is Hawes He halls from
the town OF New burgon-the Hudson, which
produced Joe Donoghue, and which IS
famous for its fine skaters. He learned
to use the long steels during his school
days, in company with the d Jnoghue
boys, before Joe became famous as the
worlds champion Though he has 'lODe
little racing during the last few years, he
has plenty of endurance and speed, and his
stride is noticeably ike the long swing
of Donoghue He ought TO prove a formid-
able man in the contests.
Joe CaSsin S another weu-knOwu skater,
and though he has had shortexpeTience on
racing skates. he has proved himself very
clever and speedy lie has many well
wishers and will no doubt be seen close To
the leader in every event
Lewis has recently shown himself 70 be
speedy enough TO be ciassed among the
probable winners. His stride is long ami
easy, and it attracted the favorable atteu-
tion OF both Nilsson and Lawson, who
watched him in his practice work
