⠀⠀-RENEWAL OF YOUTH.
VIEWS OF FRENCH MINISTERS
Since Dr. Foronoa lecture in Pari on ble process of rejuvenation, the news- paper Intransigeant has been collecting the opinions of famous Frenchmen as to the desirability of renowing youth if this were possible. It has now received the views of M. Poincaré and his Ministers, on this subject. Rejuvenation," says M. Poincaré, is a gift that all men may confer on themselves. Banish "useless re- grels watch the coming generation and, help it to progress; do not lose time, in moroso contemplation of the past, but look confidently forward to the future. The passing generation need do no more than this in order to feel itself the contempor M. ary of the coming generation." Maurice Manoury, Minister of the la terior, declares that he has no wish ta grow younger by a single day, while M. Léon Berard, Minister of Fine Arts, would welcome rejuvenation only on con- dition that it did not mean beginning The Minister of again in one's career. Justice would accept a renewal of youth without condition, he said: Arst for the joy of feeling young, and, secondly, for the joy of living with young people. M. les Trocquer, the Minister of Publia Works, objects, to rejuvenation on prin- ciple. It simply means going back- ward," he said: "but our duty is to go Not one step back- straight forward. ward for me"Taken as a whole, the opicion of members of the Government is rather, in favour of leaving time to take its course with them.-Daily Telcraph,
HEALTH THE SECRET OF SUCCESS.
THE DUTY OF BEING CHEERFUL.
"Health, the secret of success, and how to maintain it," was the title of a lecture delivered by Sir Bruce Bruce-Porter, at & meeting of the People's League of Health, in the Regent-street Polytechnic, on November 17th, Business, he said, aalled for far greater strain in competi tion than in days gone by, and more people had, regard for their health, though there was still not enough interest gen

machine was fitted" out with one set of everything, except teeth, and once these were done they could not be replaced. The strength of the chain of life was in its weakest link. "The greatest aid to success in health is cheerfulness," said Siz Bruce. Cheerfulness is a duty you owe to. others as much as yourself. There is nothing worse in the world than having to share an office with someone who is always grousing. If you meet a man with a grouse against the world, you can be perfectly sure bis hatlth is bad. Get him into it condition and he will see the! comic side of a situation that is otherwise. you ovary the day with a feel ing of cheerfulness your job is half done. If you start with a tired, feeling, and wishing you had never been boru, 'your job will be twice as heavy.
There are several essentials for good health The first is fresh air. Don't shut! all the windows in your office; if there' are two, open them both. You do not get colds from draughts. When a cold enters your house you wonder who brought it in, and you know it did not "blow in. Colds are infec through the window. Itions and much more infectious in a stuffy room with the windows shut timan in one with the windows open. The next essential is to drink enough water. The minimum atuount of water necessary per day for the average man is three pinta." Other essentials laid down by Sir Brace Bruce Porter were sunlight, wholemeal Bour, potatoes cooked unpeeled, exercise, sufficient sleep, care of the teeth, eyes, the nose, and throat.

CALLS TO THE BAR. WOMEN BAREISTERS."
Tho calls to the Bar for the Blichaelmas Term at the four Inns of Court in November 17th were remarkable because of the inclusion of several ladies. Amongst them was Mrs. Helena Normanton," called " at the Middle Tmple. To this lady belongs the distinction of being the first lady to be admitted as a student for the Bar. One lady, Dr. Ivy Williams, was called" at Inner Temple on May 10th this year, but sbe gained precedence by reason of the fact that at her foal examination" she was awarded a certificate of honour,” which automatically exempted her from keeping the last two terms Altogether ten ladies were called on November 17th-nine at: Middle Temple and one at Inner Temple,
