Initiatory to other important and more often it selected physical preparations'. There is such an intimate relation and sympathy existing between the tnlad and body that the highest perfection of one can not be attained without the impartial development of the other. We should take regular and tnodejr&te' exercise in the open air each day, to promote our health and. invigorate our body. The L-ody is the tabernacle of the mind, it is the treasury from which it draws the stimuli tor its growth and activities. Hence, the importance of a henlihy, active and vigorous body that the mind may be furnished with the proper stimuli. For if the mind depends upon the body fur the essentials of its health, growth

and litlivity c?.ri it healthy, active and vigorous mind continue to exist in an unhealthy, feeble and inactive body? Certainly not. A well developed brain without a corresponding body for its support i like a powerful engine with an inferior' and unstable frame work. The machinery may run well for a while nnd astonish the spectators by the accuracy and speed with which It petfortm every function or Oil with joy and gladness the bosom of the architect. But saon the mighty power of the engine Iseen in the wreck and downfall of the machinery. Or it is like .seed that is sown upon the stony ground. It may spring up and begin to exhibit every promise of success, but when the noon-day sun comes on it wilts away before its scorching rays, in the vigor of its growth, and all our hopes are blasted. But if the brain Ids fur its support a body whose every pulse is a throb of health, a body whose groat strength enables ;it to me t every demand made upon it without prostration of physical energy we may then hope to see n being who is able for tho arduous toil of the teacher We insist that the teacher shall give special attention to the laws of hygene, for his own good as well as for an example to those under Ins euro. Not so many eases of ill health come from the neglect to take the proper amount of exercise, as come from the direct violation of physiological , law, both through ignorance and careless indifference. Let us then look well to our health uiee so much of our happiness and Success as teachers depend upon it And remember that ''an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure." But physical force is not the whole armor of tho teacher, though the r---tion L.;-? h--v:i prevebnf, r.nd ins o h,: d:t:. s it still pjLu's tint the tencber mu'l hive the rbi'.iry H thr !, the ! 1 r,.r . t. ?yi i- r.d ::: :b o 'cm mind." lit" tho t !

Tin. h. - V fcllowing fomatkable r.c :it rf a Rulcide near that place: Ag,.hi it becomes our olity to chronicle a death by suicide, and in this case the determination to commit the deed seems to have bec-tt tronger than any case ever heard of before'. For a longtime Slr.'Elijah Brown, aged about sixty-five years, living at Crooked Creek, has net been in his right mind, and has not only threatened suicide, but lias made three attempts to take his Fife the last one of which occurred last Sunday night and terminated in MS death. About a yearlbo heattempted to shoot himself, but wa3 prevented by a bystander. Seven months ago, when his son, James II. Brown, suicided, the old man said he intended to do the same thing at the first opportunity. On Saturday night last Mr, Brown's family sent word to Mr. JJavid Harris to come over, as Sir. Brown intended killing himself. Mr. Ifarris went over and found Brown

digging a grave by the side of that of his first wife, while a lighted candle sat on the side of the grave and a shot-gun was laid near by. Harris t'.sked him' what he Intended doing, and he replied that he was going to kiil himself, that he was digging hi3 own grave and wanted to be buried just as he was found in the grave, without any comn; asked Harris tt' do the shoveling in of the dirt, and to tell, every one that he was in his right mind, and that all the world could not prevent his killing hiniscSf; that no one was to blame for the art but his o.vn family, ilarris stayed with him until .the candle burned out, when both returned to the house. Brown at once got another candle, put some fresh cap3 on his gun, and sdartod back to his digging. Harris then went home, and Mrs. H'owii wont out and watched the ' digging. The grave was finished about eleven o'clock that night. It is not known whether he. attempted to kill himself with the gun that night or nut although that was his first intention, as he returned to the house shortly after the jjravo wai finished. Here he fixed a string to his rifle so as to discharge it himself, but for some reason he gave tho idea up. Sunday he came to Carmi and purchased a drachm' bottle of morphine, went hotne and carried some boards out to his grave to cover his body with, and then finished tip all his preparations for death. About ten o'clock that night he handed his little grandson a twenty five cent piece and immediately swallowed two-thirds of the bottle of morphine. He lived until 5:25 yesterday evening, sleeping all the. time. Brown was in comfortable circumstances, and appeared sound on every other subject. For the last year or so ho has quitu frequently said that he intended to kill himself. 'What under the canopy of lie wen," roared Mr. II Jl -. -uth b ?Ir-.

Hall's Journal of Health" quotes the language too often used by apologists for "temperate" , drinking of alcoholic liquors, and selects an lnstar.cn that carries its own warning with it: "A glass of beer can't hurt anybody! Why, T know a person yonder he ds now & specimen of manly beauty, a six-footer; he has the bearing of a prince; he 13 one of our merchant princes. His faee wears the hue of. youth; and now, at the age of fifty odd, he has the quick, elastic step of our young men of twenty-five, and none more full of wit and mirth than he; and I know he never. dines without brandy and water, and never goes to bed without a tarrapin or oyster supper, with plenty of champagne; and more than that he was never known to be drunk. Bo here is a living exemplar and disproof of the temperance twaddle about irie clangorous .nature of an occasional glass and the destructive, effects of a temperate use of good liquors." Now it so happened that this specimen of safe brandy drinking was. a relation of purs. He died a year or two after that with chronic diarrhea, a common end of those who pre never drunk, or never out of liquor. He left his wdclow a splendid mansion up town, and a clear five thousand a year, besides a large fortune to each of his childrenj for he had ships on every sea, and credit at every counter, hut which he never had occasion to use. Fo? months before he died he was a year dying he could eat nothing without distress; in the midst of his millions he died of inanition. That is not half, reader. t Tie had been a steady drinker, a daily drinker for twenty-eight years. lie left a legacy to his children which lie did not mention. Scrofula had been eating up ono daughter for fifteen years; another is in the mad-house; the third and fourth were of unearthly beauty there was a kind of grandeur in that beauty but they blighted, and paled, and faded into heaven, we trust in their sweetest teens; another is tottering; on the verge of the grave, and only one of them is left all the senses.

An silica Hero. A Somebody blundered on the Detroit branchxDf the Lake Shore railroad, 'Srrie Canadian Southern express waited near Toledo for the St. Louis express on the Wabash road, and finally received orders from the train -sender to "run wild." At Air line junction the conductor learned that freight train No. 12 hail been abandoned and accordingly he signaled the engineer to go on. It was midnight, and there was a dense fog: the train was running a long curve at the rate of thirty miles an hour; trundling ia tho track in the opposite direction was the freight train. The. fireman of the express train saw a light on the track "and jumped for Ills life. The engineer whistled "down brakes," reversed the engine,- arid remained at his post, with his hand en tho lever and his eyes fastened on the approaching engine. There was a great crash; the ' engines and freight cars wore wrecked; the passenger 'cars ;-remained oa' the track, and nobody except tha engineer was so much as scratched. Imprisoned in - a shapeless : w reek of Iron, steam and ' wood,' with steam escaping from the shattered flues; and fames ' raging behind him, he liad paid the penalty of somebody's blunder. An iron rod was driven in between his shoulder-blades, his skull was tossed into the cab, and hi ttsdy wa jammed between -"the- toiler and tender.- Mr. but' stop! it' is not worth while -to "Mr." a man who dies like a hero ia saving his fellow creatures.

It is more courteous to let him enjoy his needed repose." . The seventh and last was noted d o wn as "fed loxs: "When you pick up an applecore do not find fault because it is not the apple itself, but be satisfied with the grade of descent. Do not be ashamed of your occupation. We can not all be lord, nor can we all be vagrants. As I cannot be a lord I should not lament at being a vagrant. Be truthful and outspoken.
