REST AND EXERCISE.
uNOeRwoEK is QUITE AS HARMFUL
AS OVERwORK

oycrWork But proper rest is Oi cN-
ccclng Importance. Any excess Of
wOr, decreases instead OF increases
strength When muscles work heat IL
generated. They burn among the prod
uCis of their combustion being car
bou.r aud some other acids. Now.
thy-r acids hinder further action, as
the product of the combustion Of coal
--a.ucs dcadcns fire. The sensation
We experience from this physiological
clngg.ug is fatigue natures warning
tD rest or suffer the consequences. IT,.
whcu fatigue s. felt. further action
ceases the blood impcuctratIng the
muscles carries away their products.
Fatigue then disappears and the mus.
Gle, are in condition 10 renew their
activity. So periods of rest after eN-
crtiou nrc absolutely necessary.
In some muscles. like those of the
heart and breathing organs. the periods
OF rest between the rhythmical efforts
balance the effects Of the efforts. hence.
In our normal condition. our heart and
lung, never feel tired
