Every student OF Columbia Univer
sity must now learn to swim, and the
members OF the freshman and sopho.
more ciasses are required TO take ply
sical training as a part Of their college
course. The university has established
a gymnasium one hundred and seventy
feet long by one hundred and thirty
wide, with a running track; also a
swimming pool one hundred feet in d.
ameter. Last summer the city Of New
York, with more than half a million
children to care for. timidly appropri-
ated $4,000 for vacation schools and
for extending the play grounds. The
city of Boston, following the present
Mayors leading, has acquired small
parcels Of land in different locations,
and the park commissioners have been
authorized to spend from 100000 to
100000 in establishing a system OF
play grounds, not exceeding twenty, "to
meet the wants Of the different sections
OF the city" 1t Is slowly dawning upon
municipal authorities that children
have bodies as well as minds, and that
the body must be developed and used
In order to give the mind n fair chance.
Physical training Is no longer regarded
as fad or whim. 1t is seen to be
vital necessity. City children have few
opportunities for bodily activity and
recreation; they have no barns, or.
chards, pastures and woods wherein to
romp and frollc; they have not even
the excitement Of morning and evening

When a boy turns his bulging
pocket inside out we marvel at the
quantity and variety of articles he
has slowed away. Odd lengths of
string, marbles, a horse. chestnut, a
top, brass nails, hickory-nuts, an ap-
nered by this snapper up of uncon-
sidered trifies." We think the col
lection must be hard on the boys
pocket. And it is. But do we ever
think of the variety and miscellany
of the substances we put into the
pocket of our stomach? There's the
apple and the nuts, and things be-
sides quite as indigestible as brass
than so many marbles. And yet we
wonder that the stomach gives
out" When the stomach breaks
down under the strain of careless
eating and irregular meals it can be
perfectly and permanently restored
to health and strength by the use
of Doctor Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery. The action of this medi-
/ cine on the stomach and other or
gans of digestion and nutrition is so
marked, that relief from disease is
at once experienced, and the head
aches, liver TROUBLES" kidney dis
orders, skin eruptions and other
symptoms of diseased stomach are
quickly cured. Whenever the use
of a laxative medicine is indicated,
use DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets.
They act in harmony with the "Dis-
covery" and assist its action by pur-
ging the bowels of full accumula-
| tiOns.
