It is hardly necessary for us to say anything in commendation of the school, as its reputation is so well es tablished as to render praise almost nugatory. The success of Miss Rutherford, as sisted by a large and competent corps of teachers, has been phenomenal, and her school stands today without a; su perior in the Southern States.

The generality of people enjoy much better health during summer than in winter/ This is unquestionably the rule with those of sedentary occupations who are denied sufficient exercise. Probably the principal reason is that during the warm season the skin is much the most active, and sweating is always more or less profusu Perhaps it is too- much to say that those who do not sweat easily and often cannot be healthy; but it cer tainly would be better for all could they by some means—the best is exercise— manage to work themselves into a per spiration every day. TWENTY-FIVE MILES OF DRAINAGE. It is roughly estimated that there are 7,000,000 pores in the skin which open on its surface. ! They are a very large part of the body’s sewerage system; and some one with patient calculation has reached the solution that these pores are sluice gates for over twenty-five miles of drainage. It is very evident that health largely depends upon the good working condition of this drainage sys tem, and if the outlets—the pores—are blocked up, the waste matters must be diverted into other channels. Other avenues — notably tlio bowels and kidneys—have been provided by na ture for the discharge of waste from the system, but they have sufficient work of their own to do and, while they would patiently respond for a time to any extra demands upon them, sooner or later, un less relieved of the unusual burden, they would shows signs of distress, and be come so crippled they would no longer be able to perforin properly even their own legitimate work. The waste which should be thrown off through the skin cannot be entirely diverted and sent out through other channels; much of it must remain locked up in the system.. When its natural outlet is obstructed, some of it permeates the tissues of the body, enters the blood, and is distributed about in the system, and so produces diseases of vari ous kinds. By frequent bathing the pores are kept fairly well opened, hut it will be clear to all that the little tabes can only be kept perfectly free by frequent flush ing. When a person gets into a good sweat the outflow is considerable and the channels are well washed out. If that salutary process takes 'place every day, and the body is duly cleaned by one or two baths a week, in that direc tion at least about all is being done which can be done to keep the skin ac tive and healthy. Daily exercise, to meet all requirements, should be carried far enough to produce quite a free perspira tion. < , It is undeniably a fact that a very large proportion of the i^Ls which man suffers from are due .to obstruction in the skin system of drainage. That fault is almost always present in those who take cold easily and in those who are victims to neuralgia, sleeplessness, dyspepsia, bil iousness,. gout, etc. And this class is largely made up of people who live in active or sedentary lives. Were this liability of the system to choke up with waste fuUy appreciated by people gen erally, and means to bhviat© it conscien tiously taken, infinitely less medicine would be needed in the world than is now used. the bath!s the thing. Where sufficient exercise cannot be taken to obviate the defect, the next best means is the hot air bath. . Such a bath can, of course, be taken - in one’s own home, something after the same method as the old fashioned rum sweating pro cess, But any domestic arrangement must he incomplete in the absence of the shower bath, the hapd rubbing, etc. All the essentials are found ip the Turkish bath, which some physicians have even gone so far as to say is the most power ful and certain,.and at the same time the safest and most agreeable therapeutic agents in existence. One of them quite rightly says that a person can remove as much of the poisonous and effete matter from the body in one hour in a Turkish bath as can be removed by other means in twenty-four hours.’ In this form of bath, as Professor Erasmus Wilson says, . “the skin acquires color,- freshness, firm ness and elasticity; it. loses the muddy and faded hues of ill health and the parched and wrinkled aspect of infirm ity and age, and .it procures for the habitual bather exercise, health and life.” - As for the effects of the Turkish bath upon the disordered fiver and kid neys, they are very marked indeed. Not only does it lift no smaU part of their . work f and so give them a chance to re cuperate, but it draws the blood from them to the surface of the body, and so relieves congestion, and, hence, obviates a strong tendency to disease. Turkish baths are efficient in reducing weight; therefore, it *is held that they are contra-indicated for those who are filin'- But, strange as it may seem, they act both ways. Where a person i3 what is sp aptly termed “soft and flabby,” and is overloaded with fat, they reduce him; whereas a person in poor health and thin, they, by restoring the system to a normal condition, increase the bodily 1 weight.—Boston Herald. Yesterday afternoon was the time set apart for the individual prize drill of the University cadets. Notwithstanding the fall in the tem- peratnre and sharp easterly wind, a large crowd gathered on the eam- pus. At 5 o’clock the company marched on the grounds, commanded by Captain Willcoxon, and took their places. The . uilges, consisting of Capt. C. G. Tal- uiade, Capt. John Hoffe ’ Hull, Messrs, Giiy Hamilton and Harry Charbonnier, walked out in front of the company, and the drill com menced, the commands given by Col. Snelling. / The company drilled five minutes, and were given a rest, during which time the judges decided upon the men \yho had made mistakes, and after the company had been called to attention again," they were thrown out. Only a few members had retired to the rear, when the command “load” was given, and promptly executed by every cadet except Sergeant Arkwright and private Harrington. They held their place at carry arms. The judges decided that the two ca dets were right, as the command “load’ had been previously given, and the guud were supposed to have been load ed, so the remainder of the company-, some fourteen cadets were thrown out. Cadets Herrington and Arkwright w r ere then drilled together, and cadet Her rington was thrown out on the same command. This gave Mr. C. A. Scud- der’s gold headed cane to Sergeant Ark wright. . The drill was mest interesting, and was watched with interest by the spec tators. ? HONORS ANNOUNCED. The Young Ladies of the L. C.

Attention University Men—Send in Your Names. There still seems to be an impression upon the minds of some, that the ban quet, to he given on the 18th of this month, is to be confined to the gradu ates of thS University. ‘ This is not the case; all trustees, all members of the faculty, all old students whether graduates or hot—in short all those who have been connected with old Franklin college or the University, are entitled to seats lit the Alumni ban quet—strictly speaking it is'a reunion of college men, which means all those who may hate been identified with the past history of the University of Geor gia. The committee’would* most respect fully urge all who may expect to at tenil tlie banquet, to send their names and contributions to A. L. HuH, treas urer, at once. The banquet is to be served in set courses,'and it is essen tial that seats be assigned beforehand for each one. It will be very embarrassing to the committee if they should be called upon,-during the last week, to provide seats for more than they had expepted While the committee are, in no sense the hosts of those who may come; yet being charged with the duty of provid ing the feast, they feel that they are en titled to timely notice, from all those who may expect to attend.
