And jet. it is lanrulr their own fault, for our ffirl. neglect too frequently the exer cise which would banish the latent weaknea that hastens their arrival at the destination so rraphically describe.l by Mr. Blukie. In our own city we and clear demonstration of the theory of "physical defeneration"; men who should be our 'ideals of strength and beanty are small and of almost effem inate physique. Girls who should be able to walk serer.tl miles withmt fatiqne are completely overcome and ejood for nothin?; the remainder of tha day if they walk many square. And so it is the "whole race is Ijecoming puny and feeble from lack of ftystemaiic ex ercise, upou which depeads so tnnch of their happiness, particularly of the jrirls. since they se across the "Rubi con' the sofa and a shawl, neuralgia and nerve. headaches and temper. Mis B 'riha von ILUern is a notable example of what it is possible for a woman to accomplish by training. Devoted and successful arti-H as she i9. her physical cultura is not deemed second to her artistic a id a portion of each day is given up to this need of her nature." And while it is a need of all natures, it becomes pre-eminently so to those who jive it its rightful consider ation. Not only dies the material comfort depend upon rejtilar. moder ate exercise, but the mental growth and development as well. It stands to reason that vij;utu health influences the men-al coaditions, and that the man i or woman who is constitutionally the must robust will be capable of a great er amount of intellectual lalxr. Look at Gladstone as an illustration of the wwer of the b dv up m the mind. Al tliough an old man, ha still walks six miles every ra-miing before breakfast inc. Tlie result is clear, active brain and a well-preserve 1 structure, such cm a man half a century younger might well envy him. Ha attributes his activity to the physical culture, whieh has never baen njlectal daring the whole 6t his remarkable career. And there is no do.ibt that if the men and women of the present would emulate his txaseple there would ba fewer pigmies in the world. Julian Hawthorne, who 8 an atklete mentallv and physically, -hows hi mp'nion of the necessity of vo-tilar exwei.e for women in the raining of his owa little daughter, who. ilthough but eleven years of age, can valk a mile in seven minutes easily Imagine what a gloiiou speoimeu of womanhood she will ba! No shawls or uerves for h-r, thauks to her father's superior intelligence. Strength should be a woman's pride no less than a man's. Exercise alone will derelon it, and at the same time impart that symmetrical beauty form whieh characterized the "god like Greeks." It has been too long neg- tec ted in our schools, as the pais faces of the childieit will testify. Few chil dri really take any beneficial exercise white in school. The hour, or half- hour, ior recreation in the middle of the day is passed in studying the les sons for the afternoon session or in walkinc up and down the warm rooms and balls. This is partly due to the fact that few of the schools have yards ufficientlv large to accommodate them In any pleasant pastime. This is to be regretted, as it is at this period of a person's life that physical training should be doing its work. The intro duction of calisthenic exercises in the schools several years ago was the first sten in the rteht direction, and gave the children a taste ior puysicai cmt-(Xi-e, which was before unknown 'to them. Unfoiunately, they must go through the various movements and A rills in the school-room, and bo can r.t inbairt tho pure oxygen, which is the most essential part of the benefit The fashionable craze for lawn-tennis goes to prove that our girls are becom ing aware 01 ineir ueuuiouiTj m mo matter of out-of-door sports, and the .nthiisiasm which has boon developed in them for tli it rraoe fill and healthful trame showe that they are not Daiuua this ae of progression. And we can hut f.-l nroud to know that we havt expect to soe "Ho'wv and' eacB suc ceeding generation will develop a morv perfect type of womanhood. The new "Woman s College," which is being erected in our city, is to ba on thi most advanced scale, the grounds attached to it will be for the physical cultum ot the fair students; a gymnasium will not be missing from the building, and every thing" that ean add to the menta and bodily growth and expansion will find its place within its walls. Bat we need not belong to a colleg class, or indeed, any organization, ii order to take the exercise so necessary to us, although it is true that we are more likely to do it if we have others to spur us on. Every girl who is bless ed with moderately good health should walk a mile or two every day, and feel all the better for it, while in realitt most of them loll around on their lounges or beds the greater portion of the day to be ready for the evening ball or germ an. That is the reason so few of our girls have any "go" in them they waste all of their energies dancing before they are conscious of their mistake, and to are disinclined to exert themselves by walking, or playing tennis, or lifting dumb-bel Is. The tri cycle is the mo-tt delightful means of taking an airing that is open to the belles who are too weary to foot it. Thcse vehicles have found great favor with the Washington girls, many o whom can be seen any fine day speed ing along through the bracing air w!th sparkling eyes and glowing cheeks to Indicate their benefit They have an advantage over us, however, in the smoothness of their streets, for il would only be possible for as to rid on the suburbs shou'.d we adopt the tri cycle, and then, as somo of our mam mas woidd properlv suggest, the sub urbs are not suflicientlv protected from that unclassified portion of to ciety, the tramp, to make them the most desirablft place for exercising. So I guess we will have to resign the com fortable invention, and all of us who are not happy in the possession of t gentle saddle-horse upon which to take a run across the country every morn ing will have to look up some feasibl. and inexpensive plan of recupera-atlng. Here Is where the country girls have the advantage over us. Their uncon ventional life makes it possible foi them to tvail themselves of the msn; opportunities Nature has provided V hafe a glorious chance the girl ha who lives near a river. Its resource are two-fold. In winter she can skate to her heart's content and thus pet her self into a fine, healthy glow. In sum mer what more interesting and bene ficial than to pull a stroke with some expert college friend? Base-ball is an other sport in which the country girl may develop her muscle without Wnp considered masculine; and, indeed, there is no more exoiting and interest ing p'astime for girls than a game witb a "good nine. Its tmly drawback l that it will enlargo the hands, which, to a girl, is never a recommendation. There was a Toimg ladies seminary n one city where a regular nine played every day at recess, and at times the came would become so interesting that the professor in charge would omit the lessons to see the result Before, the session ended one young lady had h;r eye nearly put out another a broken arm, several b.jasted sprained fingers, to say nothing of the broken window panes on the tide of the house facing vardwards; but as it wan all in tin physical culture service no one was blamed. I will not predict such re sults from the classes just organised. for it is undoubtedly a good thing, and it is to be hoped that all of our girls who can will enroll their names at once.

Liv erpool Olobc. How One of the Rare Delicacies of .Eastern Markets is Obtained. Though it had long previusly been enjoyed by the shore towns in New England, the introduction of the scal lop as an edible into the New York markets is as recent as 1858 or ,b9. Now the annual product of the fishery, which is restricted in area and subject to much variation, amounts to some thing like 75,000 gallons in all, worth from twenty-five to thirty thousand dollars at first cost; and New York re ceives and dispenses about ; three fourths. The species of scallop in question is Pectcn Irradians, which is common in suitable places 'all alofig our coast Besides this there are half-a-dozen other varieties, living at more or less depths in the Western Atlantic, one of which, the great Petten tenuicostaius of the coast of Maine and the Bay of Fundy, was formerly highly valued by the people of that region, but now is too scarce to appear on the tables of even "the rich" except at rare inter vals. Scallops are caught by hand-dredging: from small sail boats. The dredges are about thirty inches in width, have a. scraper blade upon the bottom, and in favorable weather several may be thrown over from each boat In shoal water an iron-framed dip net is some times used on calm days. It is pretty hard work, and entails exposure to very severe weather. The .only edible part of the scallop it the squarish mass of muscle (the adductor) which holds the -shells together, and this part is skillfully cut out by "openers," who have their houses at the landing places where the dredgers take their cargoes to be sold. It is the buyer, not the dredger, who "opens" or "eats oat"" the meat and prepares it for market In some places men alone are employed in this work, at others women and girls for the most part and they will earn from eighty cents to $ 1.25 a day. The work is per formed with great dexterity. The motions of an expert opener are but three after the scallop is in hand. The bivalve is taken in the left hand, palm up, with the hinges of the scallop towards the opener's body. The knife a simple piece of steel ground sharp, and with one end stuck in a wooden handle is inserted in the opening of the shell furthest from the breast The upper eye" is severed through by this movement A flirt at the same moment throws off the upper shelL The second motion cuts the lower fastenings of the eye to the upper shell and takes the soft and useless rim off. The last motion pitches the shell into one barrel and the soft and slimy rim into another, while the eye is thrown into a basin of yellow stoneware holding a gallon. They are then poured from tlie basin into a large colander, thoroughly washed, placed in clean boxes and shipped to New York and Brooklyn. As little fresh water or ice is placed in contact with the "meats" as possible, asit is thought detrimental to their firmness and flavor. As this is altogether a winter operation, the helo of ice in transportation is not usually needed There is, or ought to be, no waste in the scallop fishery. On Long Island the refuse is taker by the fanners as manure. The sea-faring agriculturists have always been accustomed to re plenish their half-exhausted lands with the scrapings of the beach, and with the menhaden and other seine-fish which could be caught plentifully enough for the purpose in the offing much to the disgust if every stranger who found himself to leeward of their fields. This demand failing, there is always sale for the refuse to' the regnlar fertilizer-factories scattered along-the shore. .The shells are preferred above all otliers by the oyster-planters as "stools" or "eulteb" to" spread upo their deep-water planting-beds as ob jects upon which the oyster-spawn may "set" and grow. This wise preference is due to the fragility of the scallop shell, permitting it to break into pieces under the strain of a growing cluster of oysters, each one of which will be benefited by the separation. which frees it from the crowding of its fellows and gives it room to expand by itself into comely and valuable rotun dity, instead of remaining a strap shaped distorted member of a coales cent group. All their shells, therefore, can easily be sold by the openers to the oystermen at from three to five cents a bushel. Ernest IngersoU, in American Naturalist. Excavations in Rome.

The Roman archaeologist. Prof. Rn dolfo, has had for the past sixteen years the absolute control of Roman excavations. Speaking of his work in conversation, he said: "Ihe excava tions in Rome are now being conducted by the-national government the muni cipal government and private citizens. Hundreds of statues and busts we have found, some of marble, others of costly bronze, many in perfect preservation. The Government' has spent within tlie last twelve years not far from $1,000, 000, but it has been a remarkable busi ness investment for the valne of our finds is placed at $4,000,000.
