portant part in the art of self defense. Now that you have learned the correcs way of holding the body, I shall tell you how to hold the hands.
 Tn boxing never have the muscles set" and tense. Always have all the muscles of the arms and body and legs loose and ready for action. Hold your hands open. never close your fists, except at the movement when you land a blow. The reason for this Is plain; holding your fists closed strains the muscles of the forearm ard uses up q certain part of your strength unnecessarily. Always re- member that you should never use any physical force until the moment ar rives when you need it. Do not have your muscles strained and rigid. Keep everything loose. It is easy to do so. and the best exhibition always comes from the man who is not muscle bound. Tn landing a blow remember this particular piece of advice: never

boxing is not to use them. When a blow is struck the proper way to avoid 1t is not to stop it with the hand or forarm. but to slip" 1t. By slipping a blow I mean that you should get away from it in such a manner that no part of your opponents arm, touches you. This is known as duck ing" and side-stepping." For instance, if your sparring partner swings his right for the side of your face. lower your head and let the blow go over. Do not "duck' in toward him. Let your head go under the blow and away from it to the side; this prevents your opponent from landing an upper which he would do if you were close enough to him.
 Always remember that the hands are a most important factor in boxing. Never land a blow that will hurt tn hands. When you lead a straight punch. keep the thumb up. When you swing always keep the knuckles up. A blow is landed with the first two knuckles of the hand.
 There is another thing to tell q young man if he wants to succeed in boxing: Take your chance when you see it and hit from where your hand is.
 Why do win lights? Because see the chance when it comes and I take it.
 Every little while q man leaves him. self open. but it is only for a second it is not even a second, it is less than a tenth part of a sec1n,l. You must seize that chance and strike the in- stant you see the opening.
 The foolish fighter draws back 1rs hand to hit harte-. but by ia'iime .Ie has drawn his hand hscS the man has protected himself. aud tile chance s gone.
 WI lat I say ta vouEs men ai = what I say to every body is this: Do just what [ do. If you want to make a suc- cess in life. always hit when you see the chance; do not draw your arm back hit from where your arm is. and you have got him. That is my motto. It is no trouble to whip your opponent when you use that.

PART ii.-ARTlCLE 3.
The Poise in Boxing.

In my first lesson in boxing I told you how to use your feet. Now, we will suppose you have learned that correctly, and we will go to the next lesson: How to hold the body.
 The body of a boy or man is the boiler. It is from there that all the steam comes that moves the ma chinery. the arms and legs. No mat ter how big and strong the arms and legs are, they will not be able to do anything unless the body gives them the power. So you see how much care you should take of the body. There is no exercise that will do so much to make the body strong and healthy and full of steam as boxing.
 Care must be observed not to do anything to offset the benefit of the exercise, such as smoking cigarettes ar chewing tobacco. As for drinking beer or spirits, no one of common sense will do that Then when the body is clean and full of vitality. there IS always feeling of cheerfulness and good nature. There is no desire to he quarrelsome No one should learn to box so that he can bully it over others. but that he can defend himself from

FRENCH GUN TESTS.

They are to be conduct ed by the warshlD Condo. from thD ocean which borders the great gun ranges near L'Orient. to an armored harbette. turret dismounted from the ship to the ranges. The distinguishing feature of these tests Is that the tuF
 ret will be occupied by the usual com rlement of officers and men while un- der fire. The shell of a 6 s-4 inch quick firing gun vii be used. The tests will supplemented those recently conducted on hoard the Suffren. when sheep were in the turret. The latter tested the indirect effect of modern shells upon living organisms. Those or the Condo will test the effects of concussions on the turret itself and on human beings.

hit with the thumb. Alaways keep the thumb up, and when you land a punch have the impact and your opponents head in such relation that your hand will not be injured: that is, use the first two knuckles of the hand.
 In hitting a blow never close the hand until the blow is landed. The reason for this is that it strains the muscles of the forearm and tires the boxer needlessly. Holding the hands open not only relieves the muscles from any unnecessary strain, but keeps wider space of glove always ready to defend from attack.
 Now, in stopping a blow there is a wrong and a right way. Always turn the palm of the glove outward in stopping a blow. Keep the hand open. This presents a larger surface to the glove of your opponent and will do more to prevent his blow from land ing than if your fist was closed.
 In guarding always keep your el- bows close to your sides. This takes in the benefit of the forearm, and if the glove be held close to the face all that side of the body is protected. Never land a punch without having the block ready to meet the counter. Every time you start a punch remem- Der that your opponent intends to come back with another punch.
 The particular art of the game is to land blow without a return: but every time you make an attack youren. der yourself liable to an offensive de- monstration from the man with whom you are sparring.
