EXERCISE FOR BABY. A PHYSICIAN'S VIEWS ON THIS VERY IMPORTANT QUESTION. IdKwmv of Beprsasfd Activity M Growth mud Kevt-loproeiit of IabaU.

Heiiry LiiiK Taylor. "When one considers tho important Iihyriologiral efforts of rnnscnlar arriv jry," aaid Dr. Taylor, "it is apparent that the human urganipui is iiiiperfictly ailaj t-d to a sluj-'Kisli or m-dentaiy ex ist4 uee. Xlidical practice, at lcaft iu tlie citiew. is largely made op of disor ders which are distinctly traceable to t!ie n gleet of proper exerci'- Primi tive man, being oMied to hunt and fipht in order to exit, was of mwesvity athletic and now that the struggle has iu a measure been shifted from Lrawn to brain, men Kill find it advantageous to train their mnscles in njiorts and sanies. When the ioiiortaut relation of ninw-nlar activity to nutrition, respira tion, circnlation and elimination is rc-c-alled, this wboKwme instinct easily finds its vindication. Every niuwolar mass is in an important sense a supple inmtary heart and a fnrplemeutary lulney. Th- lnnjw are ueTer thorough 1t veiltilatcd, except throoph vigorous tx. rcioe. Moreover, the nervous and tun nlar elements are so intimately r Iated as to form practically but one FTtem. Education and progress come through motor and sensory experience that K largely thronph muscular activ iiy. 4rtmth itself is infiacuced by xer- -Dr. II. O. Beyer of the United States Naval academy has shown that not only tlo those cak ts who take systematic pvnnmstic training largely exceed those who do not in average gain in v.eigiit, lung capacity and strength, but thut their average gain in height during the four years is greaHr by over an inch. The cadets range in age Iroin 10 to 21 years, and it is probable that appropri ate exercise would have similar if not preater eff'-ct iu children. "It is even mere true of the infant than ci the adult that the kind and de gree of habitual muscular activity will largely determine the structure of the liody and the tone of the mind and char acter. It is more true because the in fant is tuoro incomplete and more plas tic The newborn babe is m it were, but half made. Its organs are imma ture, iu activities restricted, and tbey w ill never attain full and harmonious development except under the stimulus of use.. It is not without significance that exercise is begun five months or more Uforo birth, and that the infant a i-ars ukih tho scene with a kick and a t ry. Though among the most belple of nature's children, the infant comes with considerable training and some re markablo muscular endowments as, for instance, the will known ability to sup port itself ly grasping a horizontal rod. Iu waki'lj hours the small limbs prac tic constant and vigorous movements suj'crficially aimed, but important in pro.lucinrr tissue changes fundamental to nutrition, as well as in furnishing usory and motor experience necessary to mental and bodily growth, develop ment and power. "At 3 months of age the baby finds its Lainl and L gins to reach out for and bold objects; at 8 or 9 mouths it c reeps; at 12 or 14 it walks, and 0 progresses from simple to complex pur posive movement!) and to such adju tnents as put it in more comfortable and intimate relation with its wrroundings. "tfince the infant has such ample en dow ments and spontaneous impuls-s to wholesome activity, our first and most important care must be to avoid undue interference or repression. It is interest ing to observe what pains some uncivi lized mothers take that the wrappings and appliances needful to protect the baby shall not prevent freedom of move ment. In describing Indian infancy and the uso of the portable cradle Mrs. Fletcher says: "It is a mistaken notion that the child is kept up all the ti:uc Every day the baby is bathed mi J placed on a robe or blanket to kick and ctow to its heart's eoutnit, bat when the family can's call the mother away bo is pv.t into the cradle, with bis arms free to play with the many bright beads that hang from the hook which encircles the head of this little portable 14." " What a refreshing contrast to the insipid experiences of our overdraped, f ivercoddlcd youngsters. Still, rongh ex erciise are not required for civilized ba bies. They will attend to their own gymnastics f not prevented. It is evi dent that tne movements of the trunk and limbs Eliould not be impeded with wrappings. Baby's activity should have free play. A the start wo are couf rout ed with the conventional Ullybar.d; if tightly adjusted, it must exert injari ons pressure; if too loosily adjusted, it gi N displaced and rolls into a contract ing string. When adjusted with a prop er degree of snugness it may be innocu ous t'ut do it benefits outweigh its dis advantage? The clothing should be loosu and simple, fitting iu successive layers, so that all can be put on at once "When it oom to artificial exercises for the baby, there ara few prevalent among us that seem calculated to help him. Monotonous jarring, shaking and trotting are undesirable if not harmful. When the idea is once grasped that a good, hearty cry is an admirable chest expander, there is lest? temptation to this form of parental indulgence, for it will usually be found that the baby is trotted for the sake of the trotter rathiT than for its ov.u P-cvishness is of course undesirable. If dae to indigestion or other liysical ailments the baby should be treated; if complicated by overindulgence, the treatment should be tempered with discipline which should not stop wkh the child." 11 from Una L-vrs (In Two boys were sitting on their door Itep, with tbeir slatvs and pencils in their hands.

Mm 'The most thrilling incident I mw in a courtroom, " remarked a west ern attorney the ther day, "was in southern Kansas. The senior lawyer of the county bar was a distinguished looking and courteous gentleman 'of the eld school, ' who had little patience w ith the joking always going on during court recess. He was exceedingly near sighted, but had a habit of laying bis I lasses ou the table during his speeches to the jury. One day. as his bark was turned toward the other lawytrs, one jf them picked up the glasses, and with a bit of mucilage fastened to the It uses piece of tissue paper which exactly cov ered the glass not particularly notice able, but at the s;une time preventing vision through them. Soon the owner of the glasw came back to the table to t xamine some iipt rs for reference in his address. Hu put ou the glasses, locked ut the pjiir, adjusted thcin again and then a pallor overspread bis face that was pitiful to see. He stag gered to a chair. " My God, gentlemen, I am blind! I have feared it for years he exclaimed, and dropped his bead on his hands "For an instant tlie courtroom was bushed. Even the practical joker must have felt remorse a the evident suffer ing of his victim. Before any one could spak or the sheriff rap for order tho attorney lifted bis head, took off the glasses und had his sight again. His face flusled c he rubbed the tissue ia per from the lenses and he stood up, an angry and excited man. " lf I knew w ho did that dastardly tiick. if I knew who had bionght that minute of grief to me," he broko out, I swear I would kill him.' He lift the courtrtum, nnd the judge adjourned the session ffr tlie day. I never want any more practical joking." Detroit Free Tress. Frutt Food. A Chicago physician is responsible for revolutionary theories in regard to fruits. He undertakes to prove the prac tical worthlessmss as font (i all culti tatcd varieties. Hyi i acid fruits such as the lemon, shaddock, orange, apple and cherry, lie asserts, should never be tatt'U. Subacid fruits euch as the grape, jK-ur and peach, may be eaten, bet with t xtiemecautit n. Sweet fiuits, like the g. tanaiia and date, he un qualitiidly commends, as they are sim ply wild ftnits and have not been changed from their natural conditions or ilavor by man. On the other hand, tlie fruits he condemns he says are forced or abnormal variations 8 is shown when cultivated and afterward allowed to run wild. They immediate ly retrcgrade and assume the sour and inedible qualities originally inherent in them. Man, be claims has not been able to make a ircper food of theni. They are unnatural combinations ol fruit elemtuts, and are frequently prona to cause digestive disturbances when taken into the stonrach. By forc ing seedlings grafting and assiduously cultivating nndir artificial conditions man ha modified the progenitors of our present domestic fruits, be has made them acceptable to tlie twlatc, but he has net eliminated their harmful qualities. Storit of Rrmhnu. Mny storit s ure told of how the late composer Lral.ru treated pianists and singers who were tager to get his criti cism. If cue of these aspirants for his favor was fortunate enough to find him at home and be received, Brahms' first concern was to seat himself on the lid cf his piano, a pition from which be rightly deemed few would have the te merity to oust him. If this failed, be had recourse to the statement that the instrument was out of tune. "Oh, that does not matter," remarked one cour ageous individual. "Perhaps not to you, but it dot to me," replied the master. On one occasion be was just leaving his house w hen a long haired youth, with a bundle cf music under his arm, hailed him with, "Can yon tell me where Dr. Brahms lives?" "Certainly," answered the master in the most amia ble muuucr, "in this bouse, up three flights. " And so saying be hurried away. Grant mm m Soldier. It is sometimes asked w here General Grant got his military genius It was simply a part of his nature God gave it to him. Almost by intuition it may be said that he knew what should be done in an emergency. Some men have to study very hard in order to learn a certain thing; others will learn it easily and naturally. Grant could go on the field and post a line of battle in 20 miuuu-s while another military man who had been a hard student might take a day or two to do tlto same thing. I regard General Grant as one of the best all around soldiers that ever lived. General Longstreet in New York In dependent. The Expert's Quandary.

The following 6tory was told by the Rev. T. J. Ileadley, historian and bio. grapher of many of the heroes of the war, in regard to a babyhood experi ence of General Sheridan: At five years of age he was playing near Lis home when some lads came along and amused themselves with the wide awake boy. A horse was feeding in an adjacent lot. "Phil, would you like a ride?" they said to him. "Yes. Give nie one." In a few moments the loy was on the animal's lck. Tlie midden and un ceremonious iiH untiug of the yotuig ri der startled the fti-md, and away he ran. "Whoa! Wiieia!" bhouted the bads but in vain. Over the fence the animal sprang, and once on the highway it was a John Gilpin performance. Bhil clung to the mane, while the soliered authors of the race turned pale with apprehension of a tragic end to it, expecting to see Mm dashed to the earth and killed. But out of sight vanished both feteexl and rider, and miles soon intervened be tween the two partiet. Suddenly the horse turned into the slieel of a tave-rn, where its owner had recently stopped in his travels. Men came out, and, recognizing the home, tpuestioned the boy. One of the curious company, after seemring the foaming animal, which had neither saddle nor bridle, inquired of the unteTrified riiil: "Who taught you to ride?" "Nobody," answered the boy. "Did no one teach you to sit ou a horse?" asked another. "Oh, yes. Bill Seymour told me to hold ou w ith my knees, aud I did." "Wasn't you frightened?" "Nary a bit. I wanted to go farther, but the horse wouldn't go." "Ain't you sore?" "Kinder, but I'll be better tomorrow, and then I'll ride liack home." "That boy," said the epuestioner, "has pluck enough to be au Indian hunter." The owner of the nag turned up not long afterward, in search of his prel erty. He said that the animal was vicious aud had thrown more than one experienevd horseman. N. Y. Trib une. A Bank Incident. A well known contractor walked into a bank in this city the other day to cash a cheek for $40.

This hapjiene-d In the morning, and about 2 o'clock that same afternoon, before the otlicials of the bank had an oppor tunity to discover the error, the con tractor walked Into the oftice of the president of the bank. "Is the bank responsible for the errors of its clerks?" he asked the president. "If it can lie proved that any of our clerks have erred" replied the presi dent in a very chilly man tier, "we will make a eorree-tion." "Well, nobody saw this error made but myself," continued the contractor, "and my word ought to be suflie-ieut proof, I think." "I 'am sorry sir," said the bank pres ident, "Imt we shall have to have ad ditional proof. We require this In order to prote-ct ourselves; that is all." "Very well, sir," replied the con tractor, rising to leave. "I am sorry 1 cannot furnish what you demand. The error I referred to was the payment of $400 for a check that called for only $4i; but as no one saw me receive the extra I sfuptosc you will not want to coirect this mistake. Good day sir." "Hold on! Come back!" shouted the liank president, who by this time was very wide awake to the abyss to which be had lieen led. The matter was soon adjust3d satis factorily, and now when any person reports an error at the bank the first question asked is: "In whose favor?" Washington Post. How Hale Got to Camp. During the war Edward Everett Hale went to the front to visit one of the generals in command. The last part of his journey to headquarters was on a steamboat, where Hale met an ollloer, a major, who was also going to headquarters. At first the major was very friendly, but when he learned that Hale was also going to headquarters he began to fight shy of him. Evidently he did not want a "civilian" on his bands on the long night ride on the boat landing. When they reached the landing Hale found a horse, and after a hard ride through mutl and brush he reached headquarters After he had his sup per, aud as he was sitting talking with tlie general, the major rode up. He had lost his way more than once, his horse had fallen with him, he was cov ered with mud and in the worst possi ble tcmjier. "Why, major," said the general, "where have you been? Mr. Hale has tieen here two hours." The major glared at Hale and grunt ed: "How did you get here?" "Oh," said Hale quietly, "I followed the telegraph wire."

The following charming story is told of the late Robert Louis Ste7esou. He was visiting a friend, afterwards consul to Samoa, in Northern Vermont. This gentleman had a little daughter about 11 years old who very speedily became a devoted friend of the novelist. In pouring forth her joys and sorrows iu existence she coutideel to Mr. Steven son the woful fact that she was born on the ith of February, aud therefore had enjoyed only two birthdays iu all her 11 years. The poet sympathized not only in comforting words hut also in action. He meditated for a few moments, theu went to her writing desk and drew up the following docu ment. "I, Robert Louis Stevenson, in a sound state of mind and body, hav ing arrived at that age when I no long er have any use for birthdays, do give aud bequeath my birthday, the 13th of Novemlier, to Miss Adelaide, to be hers from this year as long as she wishes iL Roliert Louis Stevensou.' The little girl's delight at this rare aud most welcome gift has shown itvlf regularly once a year for several years pa.st, and now the anniversary will be doubly treasured. Grading and Seeding. Across my yard in years past there had been a road. Wishing to level the yard and seed to blue grass, I culti vated it two summers, theu filled the road with clay taken from a cellar I was having dug, niakiug more than a foot of loose soil where the road had be-eu. Some one iu passing told me I uced not waste seed on the clay, for it would not sprout peas, but I seeded It to grass and oats aud to my surprise the oats were twice as tall and better filled iu the road than elsewhere. From this I learn that to do successful farm ing the subsoil must be loosened in stead of scraping the surface of the ground; also that clay is not worth lessMrs. J. A. Kirkman, in Practi cal Farmer. To Prevent Frnit Bot. Where fruit rot has attacked the peach crop, the best method is to re move and burn all dried or mummifi ed fruit from the trees in winter and spray early in spring with bluestone. Wheu the fruit buds begin to swell, spray with bordeaux mixture and again just lie-fore the blossoms open. Bepcat the spraying when the blos sons are falling, adding a little paris green to keep off the curculio. Two weeks later spray again. As the bor deaux mixture coats the fruit with the lime mixture, uae copper acetate', a eol orless solution, for tho Iat two spray ings In Delaware, a tenfold increase of sound fruit has Iwen obtained by this process at a cost of about lc per tree.

Show us a farmer that keeps his ft'iice-s up iu gotid shai', the wtetls all ! cut in and around the yard, and tl.e buildings kept in clean and neat shape end you will show us a ginnl and mc evssful farmer.
