HISTORY BUILDERS.
A Chat with David Dudley Field.
by DIR. T.. J. EDWARDS.

One evening in February. 1870. l was a
fellow passenger with David Dudley Field
In a parlor car on a train running be-
tween New York and Albany. A violent
snowstorm was raging outside. and that
may have been the reason why there
were only two or three other passengers
in the parlor car
observed that Mr.. Field had wrapped
his feet in a robe and protected his head
with a skullcap. although he seemed to
lie indifferent to the drafts which
abounded in the car. excepting as they
might affect his head or his feet.
He spoke to me cordially. although We
had no previous acquaintance. He was
disposed to be communicative. lie was
at that time about seventy-siN years OF
age. but his appearance was that of a
man OF fifty. had already heard that
he had perfected for himself a method OF
living whereby he had been enabled to
maintain perfect health and to retain
the vigor and activity. both mental and
physical. characteristic of him when he
was engaged. some twenty-five years
earlier. in perfecting his voluminous law
code. ] ventured to ask Mr.. Field IL 1t
were true that he had worked out a
regime of exercise. saying that / mad
heard that he prsctced a sort OF calls
themes which he had himself invented.
II am satisfied" said Mr.. Field. that
no kind of exercise and no regime OF
living will preserve a mans health un-
less he maintains a good conscience and
is so thoroughly master of himself as
not to permit anything to worry him
You can work very hard-I mean mind
work-if you don't worry.
II have found that a certain kind of
physical exercise which l have adapted
to myself. and which | make use of ev-
cry day. Is a benefit to me. but 1t might
not be OF any benefit To others. Some of
my friends who enjoy good health and
who are as old as / say that they tale
no exercise at all. Every man must
judge of that for himself.
II have found 1t invigorating to go
through a few exercises with light
dumbbells as soon as I get out of bed.
Some make a mistake in exercising
with dumbbells by using those that
are too heavy. II the weight is too
great then the muscles become tired.
I have in mind one friend who has
submitted to n course of dumbbell ex-
ercises in the morning. who finds
himself completely exhausted. be- |
cause the dumbbells are very heavy. |
'I have a few other light exercises |
which invigorate. but do not tire me. |

though ] do not require as much sleep 1
rs some Of my friends do. Perhaps |
that is because my. "'eep is sound and |
