Studying Effect of Exercise.

A serious attempt to investigate
what may be called the hygiene of
sport is about to be made in Berlin.
To carry out the objects in view a
sport laboratory is to be established
and placed under the charge of the
Charlottenburg municipal authorities.
The idea had its origin in a depart
ment of the hygiene exhibition held
recently at Dresden, In which every
thing that could throw light on the
influence OF sports and gymnastic ex-
ercises on the human organism was
brought together. Special attention
was paid to bodily measurements
arising under different conditions and
from different muscular exercises, and
particular observation was directed to
the good and harmful effects of the
several sports and gymnastics on the
human body and its members. One
of the chief objects of the new labora-
tory will be the observation of all that
possibly affects school children In re-
spect of food and physical exercises.

growing tip and the protecting leaves
are once damaged all chances that the

are several other insects which cause
similar mutilation of the leaf, a
very large proportion of the so-called
"bud-worm" damage may be charged
to this insect.
The other form of serious damage
chargeable to this pest occurs later
in this season. The larvae, having

1t is far cheaper to tint walls with
water OF "size colors" than it Is to
paint them with oils. Moreover, the
colors are lovely and the finish soft.
The only difficulty lies In the fact that
tinted walls cannot be washed. Size

Dry pigments are used for this tinting.
