EVIL OF TOO MUCH WORK.
Professor Stirling on the Value Of Rest
II. K:li;an 0arA

Professor Stirling on the value OF hess
Tho Killing Pace.
Zone of the most important facts In
life is this: It is the pace that Kills"
This was the text Of the final lecture
on Saturday Of the series entitled "The
Wheel Of Life" given to Juveniles at
the Royal Institution by Prof. William
Stirling.
The particular subject Of the lecture
was the philosophy Of work, fatigue
and repose, and illustrating his remarks
with a remarkable series Of expert
ments. the professor gave some val
liable advice both to old and young.
Here are some of his conclusions:
II don't advise you to follow the
method Of some people Of much read
ing and little sleep.
"The pain an athlete feels In his
muscles when fatigued is natures way
of protecting him against too great an
expenditure of energy.
your muscles will do q tremendous
amount of work If you give them rest,
but IL you 60 on stimulating them to
sustained action you rapidly impair
them.
"The value Of rest even for q few
minutes cannot be overestimated. Both
old and young should learn to appre-
ciate the value Of rest and sleep.
ITO old people the value Of rest Is
incalculable. Let them break their day
in two. Let them rest, II only for a
short time, in the afternoon, for the
value Of such break Is extraordinary.
When they put themselves In a hori-
zontal position 1t allows the heart and
nerves to calm down in a way they
never do when one Is In an erect po-
sition.
you don't get the best results out
of an animal or human being by over
working it. Each muscle and each
brain cell is only limited in its capac-
ity.
Labor Of the brain causes heavy
loss in muscular power.
Even your heart is not always beat
lnR. II TtSlS iuoAC thoh ~ SSSs~'
First the auricle beats, then rests while
the ventricle beats, and then there Is
complete rest before the auricle beats
again There is a lesson to every one.
Every muscle Of the heart rests longer
than 1t works"
Each of these statements was visual
lied by an actual experiment.
One series of experiments made by
the professor on the audience itself
was of particular interest. Il will so
tire your eyes," he said, that you will
become color blind"
A large green square with a circle
of red was thrown on the screen. Then
1t was suddenly taken away, leaving
the screen white. But 1t was not white
to the audience. The effect Of staring
at the green and red was that when
the screen became white they saw a
large blue square with pink circle.
In the same way square Of green
was shown on the screen. This was
suddenly replaced by smaller circle
of red. Then the red vanished and
plain green returned, but the audience
saw a circle Of greenish blue on the
green ground-the effect Of staring at
the red.-London Express.

The joker IN the foot fault rule, according to
Calhoun Cragin, of the West Side and 9TH Regi-

it to be obligatory for the to touch his foot

swing clear before starting for the net
The new rule IS aimed to check the growing ten
dency to beat the service 10 tho net. While COM
pulsory hat footed service regarded too rad

elasticity enough to make it permissible for the
server TO rise upon his toes and slightly lift one

rule stands the American association Is virtually

The late date of the annual meeting thf. year is
taken as an indication that the various questions OF
legislation which the executive committee under
discussion will require further time to perfect be-
fore they are placed before the eegates at the
meeting. In the notifications sent OUT special stress
is laid upon the fact that all delegates would be
required to present ample credentials in writing
and that all proxies must be duly atrested as tho
meeting promises to be the most important in the
history Of the game in this country.

AMERICA FIRST
AT THE K POLE

the North Pole and planting there the starry flag of the American
republic. For many years the search for the North Pole has en-
gagged the thought of the world and adventurous men, nearly all
of the Englishspeaking races, have risked their lives in the
perilous quest. Parry. Ross, Sir John Franklin, De Haven and
Griffith, DIR. Kane, Captain Mares, Lieutenant De Long, Lieutenant
Greedy, Lieutenant Peary, Captain Nansen and the unfortunate
4Andree, who was lost in a balloon-these brave men tried and
failed. Peary is nov again in the Arctic, and may have reached
the pole. DR.. Frederick A. Cook, of Brooklyn, who has goriously
succeeded where all others almost as gloriously failed, was hardly
considered in the great competition. Success was hoped for
the American Peary, there were some hopes for the American
Wellman in his balloon until it was wrecked, but DIR. Cook was
lost sight of until the electrifying dispatch came yesterday from
Copenhagen that he had attained the great object of his search
and was O his way back to civilization. BY right of discovery
the frozen soitudes surrounding the North Pole are American
territory and the pole is on American soil-or ice. But that is
mere persifage. The point is that the triumph of one of the
greatest achievements of the modern world belongs to the United
States of America.

OF ATTITUDE

tending the terms of the Governor and members of the Legislature
and county officers. The argument for the open primary is that
it gives to the people better control in governmental affairs. If
that be the motive in the case of the primary, the situation is
exactly reversed in the case of the constitutional amendment,
and, consistently, the same motive should be opposed to the
amendment which takes away power from the people in govern
ment. A fouryear Senate and twoyear Assembly are not as
susceptible to public sentiment or as mindful of the public in
terests as a Senate and Assembly elective for shorter terms. The
personal power of a fouryear Governor will be greatly amplifed.
He will be more independent of the people, his official patronage,
now larger than that of any other State Governor, will be greatly
increased, and Governor and Senate will together have undue
weight in the affairs of state. The Assembly, the popular branch,
will gain nothing by the proposed change, except responsibility
to the people.

somewhere, there are a thousand and one things which
come after him and try to tear him down. No one
knows this better than our captains of industry
Everyone of them has had to talk pretty straight to
himself in the looking glass. They all knew when the
critical time came when it was necessary to say,
Yes, I am willing to become rich. l am willing to pay
suffering a-plenty.
Because we do not come in contact with these
fellows every day we imagine they have an easy time,
but money will not buy new stomac1s or backbones.
This country owes a good deal to Hartman and
to the other men who have built up this country. 1t
has been the history Of the world that when men get
great then is the time to tear them down. The pen
dulum swings both ways and you can bet that as the
great railroads have built up our land, so they will
come in for a good share of tearing down. 1t all
