Florence Blade says that "time will
prove the wisdom of the last Iegisla-

1t is our opinion that the men who
most bitterly opposed the measure

friends. Every one who has worked
in a mine knows that under the 10
hour system ''tapering time amounts
to fully two hours per day, while men
employed eight hours are better salts

complished fully as much as those
compelled to stay under ground ten
hours. Tle above talk about the

more honest, if siX hours We're to con-

ABOUT EXERCISE.

The opening of the athletic season
and the prominence now given to out
door sports all over the country call
renewed attention to the subject of
physical exercise 1t is agreed by all
medical authorities that systematic
exercise Of some kind is absolutely
essential to perfect health. 1t is the
means to an end.
How to develop all the muscles of
the body and how TO keep the vital
organs in good condition are the two
problems TO which most earnest study
has been devoted.
How the best results can be obtain
ed from exercise, and what the char
acter of that exercise shall he, are
subjects Of special interest at this sea-
son to every young man and woman.
DIR. g. F. Sarady, one of the best
known and one of the ablest practic-
toner's of New York, whose common
sense views on medical topics always
commands the respect of the public,
said
"This exercise business is being run
into the ground. Numerous maya
zines and other periodicals have been
started that are devoted solely to Civ
ing directions how to obtain health
10y the use OF patent apparatus. In
ventofs are sitting up nights trying to
devise some combinations of lifts and
pulleys to catch the fancy of the
physical Instructors and their pupils.
"The best of all exercises, walking,
requires the use of no costly appa-
ratus, no physical instructor and no
gymnasium. Walking brings into ac-
tion every muscle in the whole body.
1t expands the lungs and opens W
the cells to the action of the oxygen
of graceful carriage; it strengthens
the muscles of the back, straightens
up stopping shoulders and stimulates
the appetite.
Every person who is not crippled
! by disease ought TO walk lew miles
every day. Perhaps there are some
who, from lack of exercise, would moi
to able at first to walk even mil,
without great fatigue. Such a person
would find that after a while tn,
strength gained by the daily wall
would enable him to cover a Longer
distance with ease.
Walking may be overdone Xix,
everything else When one find
himself completely beat out, afte
such exercise, he ought to know tina
he has gone too far. 1t is natural t,
feel somewhat tired after tire,
mile walk, but after a few minute
rest this feeling Will disappear anC
the person Will experience sense o
renewed strength. "
