PHYSICAL CULTURE.

Physical culture, that is the exercising of the muscles of the body, not with the object of muscular development, but in order to attain good health is a science little understood, chiefly because the study of any well-known and welltried system is neglected. Everyone realises that exercise promotes good health, but many exercises indulged in are not nearly so beneficial as a proper ■system of physical culture would ba. Good health is, of course, essential to a true enjoyment of life, and without it success in any walk of life is, practically, beyond the reach of the ordinary individual. The series of articles, which Mr R. 0. Jarrett, Physical Culturist, has just commenced in the columns of the Wairarapa Age, should be read by everyone interested in physical culture, and it is a subject in which everyone should take an interest. Mr Jarrett deals with his subject in an interesting manner, and he is, movebver, an enthusiast who most generously assists those who are desirous of taking up physical culture. The second article of the series, will be published on Saturday next.
