Hou he Got Exercise.

Lord Palmerston used a clever ex-
pedient for coercing himself into a
aittle regular daily exercise.
1t was his custom when In govern
ment positions to have his inkstand
placed upon a table several yards away
from the desk at which he worked, so
that he had to walk several PAGES for
each esp Of ink.
He attributed his maintenance Of
sturdy health and 1aunty manner IN
der the trying conditions of office rou-
tine to this simple practice, as also his
habit of performing all work standing.
