ADJUSTMENTS NEEDED.
Men Whose Work is Mental Should Be
Athletic.

From the Milwaukee Journal.
ADJUSTMENTS are necessary as a relief
from serious thought and labor. Man can
not endure to be ever at work either men
tally or physically. 1t has been shown
throughout the ages that one day in seven
is a reasonable portion OF time to give to
rest from work. We give nearly one-third
Of life to sleep. Yet We are so constituted
that this is not sufficient to keep mind and
body in best condition for usefulness We
need pleasures. We need to be made glad.
IF you would keep the wrinkles out Of
your face. keep sunshine in your heart"
In whose heart there is no song
To him the miles are many and long"
We each have our individual taste about
our amusements. and their kind often indi-
Gates the kind Of character we possess.
ihen again, the amusements IN which We
lnuulge nave power In forming charaC-
ter. do We seek coarse or low amusene uts
we become coarser and lower in character
IL we seek more refined and purer pleas
ures. we become more refined and pure; our
characters are raised to a higher level
Ones amusements should be entirely diff
ferent from ones daily employment A
man whose work is mental will, perhaps
best enjoy some athletic sports. In them
ne VIII received renewed vigor for mind and
body. Another whose work is hard physi-
cal labor, may enjoy music, a play at the
lery.
Every one should enjoy companionship
with nature and find pleasure in all out OF
doors. We gain renewed strength by keep
ing In touch with mother earth. Do not
seek your pleasures sadly, but throw your
self with enthusiasm into them. There is a
homely little verse that used to be taught
TO children, but It contains a deep truth
Work when you work
And play when you play,
-'or that Is the way
To be happy and gay"
Play Is not the business Of life, but Il has
Its rightful time. When that time has
come, give yourself entirely to play Thus
only will you get the good that you should
receive from It.

This ground on the avenue side Is now COW

in recent years for the late Matthew G.
Emery, and the Sd street side Is also i'm
proved. In $40, when the history of the
academy began with Charles H. and Joseph
Z. Nourse as teachers, it was a one-story
building. When the late Otis c. Wight be-
came the proprietor in 1S4S or soon after,
he had changes made so as to give another
story and a basement, the latter being used
for a primary department. In 1894, about
the time Mr.. Wight retired from his pro-
fession, after long and honorable career,
he sold the property to DR.. Henry L. Mann,
who built two dwellings on the site. One
was there he died in October, 1896 at the
age of Seventy-nine.
Among many others who were once stu
dents at this academy, some of whom are
now prominent residents of this city, it may
be of interest to mention Mr.. William +.

ton by the commanding general, as 1t is
set forth in general orders. The eight or
CARNATIONS parading every man are COM
mended as models in this respect for the
remainder Of the brigade. The next eight
companies, with over 90 per cent present,
are also entitled to eommendatfon
at is expected that the organizations
parading under 80 per cent will strive, at
the coming inspection and muster, to inn

Matters of Routine.

After a conference with the officers of his
staff, General Harries, commanding the
District of Columbia militia, has decided not
to order out the brigade for parade duty
the 30th of May. 1t had been planned TO
dedicate the Ordway monument, now being
erected over the grave of General Albert
Ordway at Arlington, that day. The march
being a long one, however and as many
OF the guardsmen usually desire to spend
the holiday in different way, the pro-
posed parade has been abandoned. The fact
that regular Memorial day exercises will
be in progress at the cemetery had its bear
ing on the decision. Another reason con-
sidered was the probability that the bri-
gade will be ordered out in connection with
the ceremonies incidental to the unwilling
of the statue of de Rochambeau, at the
southwest corner Of Lafayette Square the
oath of May
AS Is generally known, Count de Rocham-
beau was the French marshal who rendered
noble services to the colonies during the
revolutionary war. The oath of May being
the anniversary of the entrance of de Roch-
ambeau into the French army has been Sc
lected as the proper date for the dedication
OF the statue. 1t is said to be more than
likely that the local National Guard will be
called upon to take part in the exercises.

One of my most distinct recollections of

mud would cover the shoe almost to the
