Delivered Before the BeaTer OTedlcal Society by one of Its Members. “Mena Sana in Corpori Sana.” A sound mind iq a sound body ; is in* deed a short but full description of “Ideal Man.*’ He that is the fortunate possessor of these two valuable gifts of nature can truly be considered as perfect. But In order to Insure the one we must first se* cure the other, and the proper manner to attain "this desirable end shall be the sub* ject for consideration. We find that physical education Is de fined to be that science which famishes the principles and rules for bodily educa tion. For this purpose it borrows from physiology a knowledge of the functions, and from hygiene a knowledge 01 the ef fects of the various agents, external of the body, by which these functions are regularly and harmoniously carried on, so as to secure a full and proportioned de velopment of the organs, Increase of the strength, and preservation of the health of the body. Physical education also looks to the means of preventing deviations -from the normal conditions of the organs—health • whether these consists in weakness, and' Infirmities of the body in general, or in deformites and disproportions of organs in particular.' The period during which physical edu cation is most judiciously applicable, and daring which it exerts not beneficially, its plastic powers is that of childhood, i, e., ,the time that intervenes between birth and adolecsence. Some ancient philosophers jeven claim, that physical* a 8 well as mental education, begins with' uterim life, and indeed it does notrequlfts ’the authority of illustrious nAmea to coair vince ns that the embryo, Is susceptihft to very great efiange, both mantally and physically, if we remember.that the whole: universe individually and coleciivelfv|ls| continually undergoing changes. Pet; Uou in in its fullnessia the constant aim of crea tive energy; dynamic force is but the ceaslees energy of nature to improve. When 1 say that physical education be gins at the time of birth, I do not say that it ends at the time of adolescence. In this case at least, theory and prac tice, ia not conflicting, and what “Tacitus” says of education generally, thn; “learning begins at the cradle, and ends at the grave,” is emmineotly true in this case. This is not at all a strained view of the subject. The case of the cele braied Venitian Ludovico Cornaro, is a striking example of this kind, not be cause it is the only one, but because it is better known than many thousand others. To quote his own words from his work “Discord dilla vita longae et sobriae in speaking of his own case, he says: "Having completely spent the first in stallment of life in dissipation and intem perance of every kind, I effected a second lease of life at the age of sixty years, while at the brink of ruin, etc.” How well he husbanded and improved his vital energies, the old age be attained is evidence. Having lived to the age of one hundred years he attributes, and correctly, the extraordinary resulis, to the strictly methodical and tem perate life be lead, daring, as be called it, his’second lease of life. Claudius Tiberius is a similar case, whose art and science bad to come to the rescue of failing nature. The fact that ihe was considered an idiot and Imbecile in bis youth, saved him from the band of his nephew, Caligula, the assassin of his brothers, who aspired to the throne of ancient Rome. And if hlsi cises, iu Paul, Corinthians, chapter ix, verse 25 and other places. And so may perhaps the Tourney’s of the middle ages be clasesd, if they are not more identical with the Olympic plays which were origi, nally more of a religious nature, and from which they particularly differed in that respect, and also in this, that any woman but a Priest of Ceres, who attempted to be present at the exercises, was seized, thrown over on abyss of rocks and killed; while in the Tourney the presence of ladies was particularly Invited to give lustre to the feast With their charming smiles, brilliant and costly toilets, and one of their number was generally selected to crown the successful knight, and present him. amid imposing ceremonies with the customary prize. But this also fell iu dis repute, particularly so after the death of Henry the second of France, who died from injuries received in a round with Count Montgomery by a splinter of the lance of the Counts penetrating his (the kings) right eye. Pope Inocent the second, had already forbidden the decent burial of those who fell In the Tourneys, and so the two incidents together vir tually put an end to those plays. The Carrousels were in Europe the next attempt to establish gysnastic train ing on a general plan but failed, because they were, so to say, monopolized by the aristocratic classes. What success the turners of this centu rjpsill have, remains to be seen. bring physical training down to a general as well as popular plan of educa tion, is not a very easy task, and it is not my desire to undertake it; but I will simply try to point out in a few remarks, some of the most general and grave errors com mitted, as wml as the most judicious man ner to assist nature in her effort at form ing the most complicated being, possibly most perfect. The first cry of the newly born baby, translated from nature’s language is: "Air! givens dir!" This exclamation is generally answered with the silly remark, '•the baby has strong lungs ." Without a US’ ADVANCE. thought bow these lungs are-to be suppli- ed, and of the extent of exercise which they require. But the body of the little stranger is rolled up like a defunct an- cient Egyptian In his mummy folds. First comes the belly band, rolled on as tight as possible as an alleged support for the navel, to prevent umbilical hernia, bat with just as likely an effect of Us causing inguinal hernia. Its still more in- jurious effect is by do compressing the ab- domen as to prevent its expansion and the decent of the diaphragm, and consequent ly the dilatations of the chest lengthways- After the roller comes the long flowing petticoat, with Us broad upper band, cov- ering the stomach and chest, and com pressed by tight pinning so that the in- tercostal muscles are prevented from en- enlarging the cavity of the chest in a lateral direction, and thus in two direo t ions is the capacity of the chest dimin’ {Shed, and the lungs, in a corresponding degree, are prevented from receiving their due quantity of air. Then to make bad worse, the little new comer is by the unreasonable affection of the mother subjected to partial suffocation by allow ing it to sleep in her arms, under the bed clothes, which are drawn np to her chin, leaving scarcely an opening of the scant- est kind for the access ok air to the in fant’s lungs. So soon as the washing and dressing, ae eundvm artem , is completed the busy nurse deems it a matter of grave and prime ne nessity to introduce something into its stomach, without waiting to ascertain if the mother cannot at once famish a sup ply of milk. This ought by all means to he the first, and for tnonths the only food given to the child. If the milk is not ready to be drawn at the moment, a pe riod of twenty-four hours may bn avowed to elapse without any suffering to the child. Certainly it ought to be saved from the inevitable sugar and water, gru- el and molasses "and worse staff: With still more reason ought it to be protected trom any psrgaUve matter, gifen-uodeiu, the plea of emptying the bowels of the meconium. , The first milk of the mother meets all these wants admirably. For some months after birth the infant ought to be bathed morning and evening, with due reference to the time of giving the breast. As a general rule every kind of bath should be given when the stomach is empty, or at least when the digestion is over- The best plan is to immerse the whole of the body of the child at oncer- in warm water. Ordinary washing is often performed so badly that successive por tions of the body are omitted, and evapo ration is going on the while from parts before they are dried,, producing an un equal temperature of the body and cans* ing colds and other disorders. After six months the tepid bath will replace the warm bath, and once a day will be snffi dent to use it. Still the constitution of the individual may call for a modification in the temperature of the bath. In the first four months we find the flowing petticoats, which, were it not for the tight breast band, would answer the purpose for warmth very well, as far as the lower half of the body is concerned. But ere long we find the other extremejja dress still snffidently tight around the waist and shoulders, but too short, not reaching to the knees, exposing the lower part of the body, used to and tender from the warmth of the long dress,-to the some time very chilled air. In the female attire the style is again, after soma years, changed to what is call ed "full dress,” but which is often so cur tailed as to leave so large a portion of the chest and shoulders bare that the inquisi tive observer is sometime at a loss to know the precise line of division be tween the part which fashion claims for exposure and the other which modesty would conceal. He finds the boundary to be too changeable; wishes that more had been left to the imagination, and less to be condemned by good taste. In dressing the male less attention is paid to fashion, but still too much. For some time after birth the infant leads comparatively a vegitative life, gratifying its nutritive wants and sleep ing. Gradually as months pass the inter vals between the sleeping and waking slates become longer and longer, until the child 'follows the usual division of night and day. The hours chosen for sleep for the older child should not be later than noon, so that time will have elapsed for it to become weary enough to fall asleep when evening comes, and to rest well through the night. For the sake of both mother and child it is very desirable that the latter should obey early the laws of periodicity, in its sleeping and taking food at regular Intervals. From the very first day of Its existence, the infant should not be allowed to re main at the breast longer than It Is acta- nor to be put to it again until a sufficient time bias elapsed. In spme instances the infant is. a Dad . sleeper, and in failing to get her own • supply of sleep the nurse, and too often the mother,. will bring on sleep in the child by oneof the too many patent and other medicines designed for that pur pose. No language is sufficiently strong enough in condemnation of so criminal' a practice, which lays at once the foun dation to a long train of disorders, lasting often daring the whole course of life. . Many a death happens where no suspi' cion is entertained, sometimes even by • the guilty, yet often innocent party, which was produced by the 1 unnecessary use of such remedies as soothing, and cough syrups, paragoric, laudanum and , others to numerous to mention.. . ■ ‘ Scarcely less injurious is the exclusion of light; children should hare the bene fit of not only the best ventilation, but best lighted and most cheerful rooms in the bouse. Nor should they be interfer ed with in their harmless gambols either by tight dressing or otherwise. During the spring and summer, chil dren ought to be allowed to be out of doors as much as possible, if practicable on the grass or among plants. Pure fresh air and plenty of exercise in it, will sup plant the best French rouge,eyen from the toilet table of a Queen, while the proper training will make out of ah imbecile and idiot an illustrious and miglbty Emperor. DEATH OF GOVERNOR GEARY. Harrisburg, February B.—Ex Gover nor John W- Geary died suddenly thin morning. Ex-Governor Geary returned here from New York last evening in apparent good health. At about nine o’clock this morn- ing, while breakfasting with bis family. and in the act of helping his little son, hia head suddenly fell back. Before his wife could get to his side, and before medical aid could be.summoned, he was dead. It is raid that heart-disease or apoplexy was the cause. The citizens are greatly excit ed, and much sorrow is expressed. The death of Governor Geary was an nounced at an informal meeting of the House of Representatives. After a gener- al expression of opinion it was resolved to drape the hall in mourning in respect to memory of the deceased, governor Har traoft spoke very feelingly, and said that as he bad been acting Governor during a portion of the present session, the same respect should be shown him as if he was Governor at the time of his death. The State Departments and Chambers of the House and Senate will be draped in mourning, and it is proposed to suspend all business in this city at the time of the funeral. The flag on the dome of the Capitol was displayed at half-mast to day, and the bells of the city were tolled this morning. A Governor’s salute of fifteen guns, as minute guns, was fired froin Capitol Hill, by order of the Adjutant General as a tribute of respect. The family have not yet determined on the day of the funeral, bat it will take place on Wednesday or Tbnrsda). Gov. Geary’s eldest son is absent at West Point, and nothing definite will be arranged un til bis arrival, which will probably be to night Governor Hartranft will send a special message on the subject to the Leg islature on Tuesday. The funeral ser vices will take place at the Market Square Presbyterian Church, after which the body will be taken in charge by Pilgrim Commaodery Knights Templar, behaving expressed such a wish previous to hia death. Governor Hartranft has issued the fol lowing announcement of the death of Gov. Geary: Executive Chamber, { Harrisburg, Pa., Feb. 8 1873, f With profound regret the announce ment is made to the people of the Com monwealth that Ex-Governor John W. Geary died suddenly it his home in Har risburg this morning. In the midst of the sadness and gloom now prevailing at the Capital, briefmention can only.be made at this time of the eminent services of the deceased as a civil officer in his earlier life in California and Kansas; as a brave and distinguished officer of the army/ of the Mexican war and during the entire rebellion, and his faithful performanceaof the arduous duties of the chief executive of the State for six years. In this sudden re moval of one occupying a high position in. the land, and who looked forward to years of usefulness and enjoyment of rest after along life of public service frouv which he so lately retired, we- are again, reminded that death is no respecter off persons. In respect to his memory that following orders are hereby lamed : ~ First—Uprtn the receipt of tbia order CONTINUED 05? WQtWh NTJMBEK 7 s i * I 1 5 > i
