and other breaches of the peace, are stirred even down to the lowest depths by a p ite fight. The more bloody and brutal it is, the more they are entertained by the exhibition. It is folly to pretend that this phase of physical training has in it more good than evil. It is imperfect in itself, not going to the whole man-not training him for any high and noble endeavor. It does not put him upon any upward reach. It has in it no uplift, but on the contrary, in a majority of Instances, lowers the aim and the whole tenor of the individual life. Pugili tlc contests have broken out recently as a sort of epidemic. The opportunities for public gambling give zest, to all such occasions. If there were no other schools of physical culture the world would be badly off: It would not be well to send the young to witness prize-fights in order that they might secure the best muscular training for themselves. The modern pugilist furnishes no wholesome school for the young,
If there were not a public pugilist or prize fighter in the land there would be no deteriora- tion in physical training. It would go to the making of sound men and women There will be no prize-lighters joined to the faculties of schools and colleges. Neither Sullivan, nor Kitrain, nor Jackson, the segro from Australia, will be wanted at any respectable institution. The coming athletes may wrestle for the great prizes of the world; but they will make no con- teste in the fatic arena. They will subdue the wilderness, open mines, build towns and cities, make scientific discoveries, teach coming generations the value of sound minds in sound bodies, and from first to last demonstrate that good mornis and good taste are never separated from sound physical training.-S.

The New South Wales Court lately put a'tex an foreign lawyers applying, to practise here Not an ad valorem tax but a specific duty el 250 per caput. The doctor practising in New South Wales has to fight in open competition with all comers; also the engineer, architect, and surveyor. Why should the lawyer bi granted a monopoly? In Victoria they have for years imposed a tax on lawyers applying, for If we are to leave to practise locally, have Protection in one trade let us have is Let us prevent any foreign actors or in all. lecturers landing here excep on payment of a heavy tax. What is sauce for the gooie is sauce for the gander. Let us tax foreign artists desirous of coming to these shores. Let us put a duty of 100 per cent. ad valorem on journaliste and editors. Let us keep out English architects and engineers. Under the present state of things the legal ring is a disgrace; these men are sheltered by the courts, competition is shut out, and their charges are kept up, and then, ye gods, they stump the country lecturing on Freetrade! If it is thought necessary to hedge in any profession, either from the com petition of outsiders or from the competition of poor man in the same colony, then the hedging in should be done by Parliament and not by aby "Coort," or other Council, committee, Cor: poration, or Star Chamber whatever-Sydney Bulletin
F TO GET BACK YOUR WAIST.
"THE DOOR IS SHUT !! The other day an attorney of the Supreme Court of New South Wales applled to the Queens-would not care if the increased figure which land Supreme Court. for leave to practise his profession in that colony, and his request was 'ignominiously refused; the Queensland Chief Justice merely remarking "that door is abut He might have added "the egg is blown, the potato is cooked," but he didn't; he simply said, that door is shut," and fired the unhappy attorney out which proceeding seems peculiar and worth investigating.
The trouble between the New South Wales and Queensland Supreme Courts began in this way. The New South Wales Court will admit a graduate of any of the Universities to practise as an attorney, after studying his profession for three years; persons who are not graduates of any University have to study law for five years. In Queensland graduates and all have to study for five years. Once upon a time a gentleman who "wore the patriotic name" of O'Brien, having passed through the Sydney University, applied to the Queensland Court to know whether he would be admitted to práctise as an attomey in Queensland if he studied law for three years and passed the necessary examination; the court #ald. "No, you must study for five years; three years is not enough." Whereupon the O'Brien replied that he would go to New South Wales, study for three years, become admitted there. and then came back to Queensland as a full 'blown New South Wales attorney and obtain admission. The Court merely replied, "Oh, indeed and the O'Brien bowed himself out.
Within the last few years, says a writer in the New York Sun, a new way of reducing weight has become popular. This does not so much reduce a man's total weight as it prevents the Increase of weight in the stomach, which is what men want most. A man, who is growing stout" appears every time he steps on the scales were to show that he had larger arm and leg muscles, that his chest had increased in size, and that he had a bigger frame; but when he sees the evidence before him that the more pounds do not mean these things, but an increased, wais! measure, he thinks of methods to reduce his weight. The thing is to take off the fat above the waist. A simple way is to sweat Sweating, a man reduces his weight. If the total sweating could be taken from the stomach and the loins. the weight of the stomach would be decreased,' while the plump shoulders and round arms and The simplest way of legs would be retained, sweating the stomach and the loins is to wrap enough Bannel around them, and then take some exercise. It is not necessary to take violent exercise, though violent exercise will do it. With coough flannel around the stomach a man can sweat his stomach without, sweating the rest of
his body.
A man can wear a flannel stomach bandage without any one knowing it. Perhaps the best is the kind that a man has especially made for him, though it costs a little more than the others. He can buy eight or ten yards of the best and most porous flannel, and the man who make his shirts will make the bandage for him. He is measured for it, and when it is done it is shaped like an hour-glass, though the top circumference is smaller than the hip circumference. It should cover a man from his lips to the lower part of his breastbone. Buttonholes are made in one end of the bandages, and buttons act back a few inches from the other end. The bandage should not be tight, but easy fitting.
The bandage should be worn next the skin, and over it a flannel shirt. No undershirt is needed. A man can wear this bandage on a walk through the streets to his business, or he can walk around with it on in the park. It works quicker if he rides on horseback with it on and bounces around in the saddle; or he can, put it on and go to i gymnasium and bounce on a spring-board.The object is to take some form of exercise which will move the whole body and make the stomach sweat. The fannel bandage absorbs the sweat.
In due time the cute O'Brien reappeared as a full-blown New South Wales attorney, and applied for leave to practise in Queensland. The Queensland Court smiled a bitter smile, and said: How long did you study law in New South Wates ? To which he replied: "three years." They replied: "We only admit five-year students, here." He answered. "But I am a duly admitted New South Wales attorney." The Court said in effect that they didn't care twopence for his New South Wales admission, and firmly but quietly sent him home" on his ear." Then the New South Wales Chief Justice arose and had a letter sent to the Queensland people to ask whether it could possibly be a fact that they had refused to admit an attorney from the glorious colony af New South Wales. The Queens. landers wrote back to say that they had refused to admit him, and that they won'd be very happy to refuse to admit as many more as he liked to send up on the same terms. Then Darley and Co, decided that if the Queensland Court refused to admit New South Wales three year students the New South Wales Court, would refuse to admit any Queenslanders whatever, on any terms whatever. The Queenslanders immedi ately rejoined: "Then we won't admit any of SCOTT's Emulsion of Pure Cod Liver Oil with your men either." And so "the door was shut" Hypophosphites is the most valuable remedy, between the two colonies.
for Consumption, Scrofula, General Debility,

After the exercise it should be removed, and cold bath should be taken. After the bath it is a good thing to rub the stomach and loins with alcohol to prevent the possibility of taking cold. The flannel bandage works well. It decreases the circumference of the waist. It takes off the fat from the places where a fat man wants the fat to be taken off most. To mention only one case, it reduced a man's waist one and one-half inches in a three-days' ride.

It seems a pretty recognised fact that a man who has had the benefit of an education at a university is likely to learn as much law in threa years as a boy going straight from school to a lawyer's office will learn in five years.
