"A Brilliant Retort.

After dinner speaking is an art, and,
like many other arts, its excellence has
much to do with the mood Of the artist.
Some Of the best Of our after dinner
speakers sometimes fail, but it is not
often that failure results in the enrich
ment of the worlds store Of epigram,
as it did in the case Of Lord Erskine
many years ago.
When Lord Erskine was made q
member Of that highly honorable body,
the Fishmongers' Company of London,
he made an after dinner speech on the
occasion Of his first appearance among
them as member Upon his return he
said to a friend:
Il spoke i'll today and stammered and
hesitated in the opening"
You certainly foundered,' was the
reply, but l thought you did so in
compliment to the fishmongers."

that the athlete has ]ronger heart

the extra strain that is put upon it. 4
man needs a larger heart to row
race. and if gradual exercise has so
provided him with one then he can
safely undergo the most severe tests.
1T is the same way with the lungs,
and they must be developed gradually
until they can undertake the extra
work. A man with his heart and lungs
we'll developed is in no danger, no mat
ter how hard the race. He may COM
pletely keel over at the end of the race,
but it will likely be from sheer exhaus-
ton, and his heart is so strong that the
effect Is not at all injurious. He will
be as good as ever in few moments"
