Imaintain, therefore, that the tendency la to take too much exercise rather than too little. If you pay too much attention to the development of the body, the intellect and the soul suffer, and you produce Rud yard Kiping's flannelled fools as the wicket and muddied oafs at the goal in dividuals who give themselves up to athletles, to the exclusion of all those mental attainments that differentiate man from the bruto.

Equally clear are the evils of luck of exercise. Respiration becomes, habitually too shallow. The muscles which prosid sava the chest movements grow work. - "The walls of the heart become thinner and more -flaccid,” andTM then follow along, train of
untoward symptoms,
One only need be especially mentioned here, and that is the tendency to grow fat. This fat is really a sign of organic decay. When a muscle becomes paralysed it does not at once waste away. It develops fat within its tissue.
When this fatty matter is deposited round the heart cxternally, or in its sube- stance, it produces, what is known
fatty heart." Such a condition is fraught with manifest danger. It is such cases which eb often end in sudden death. The heart can then no longer respond to the effort which even a slight exertion may call upon it to make. It ceates to work and the result is necessarily fatal. For this mere harmless exerciso or a comparatively Blight muscular effort is generally blamed,
More exercise," then, is the sovereign remedy whereby the evil effects of city life may be counteracted. Exercise is not only Palutary in itself, but absolutely necessary if we wish to maintain sound minds in Bound bodies.(Exchange.)

For Japan, some further charters previous. ly done at 29 cents have been allowed to become known and there is also a report that in this direction a Japanese boat, the "Kotobira Maru," has accepted 27 cents and for part cargo only. For Vladivostock, early March, a steamer secured a charter for about 33,000 piculs at 55 cents, other would-be charters have been quoting lower, and no further fixture is reported, though owners have become more willing to meet charterors.
