AN ATHLETE'S PANACEA.

Cricketing Casualties.

j Damages Promptly Repaired.

Dodbtless it is a fortunate circumstance

(writes the special correspondent of the " London Sportsman") for both tho physical und mental welfare of tho rising generation of this and other countries that the number of th.o3o.good, charitable, though some h-hat timid old souls who regard ath letic exorcises with extreme disfavour on account of their being sometimes attended with accidents, is growing email by degree? and beautifully less. It is happily como to be protty generally recognised that a sound mind can scarcoly bo enjoyed without the existence of a thoroughly hoalthy and vigorous condition of the corporeal facul ties ; that manly exercisos, whilst develop ing and strengthening tho system, afford diversion to tho brain and allow of its to cuperaticn after any unduo strain impose^ upon it. Equally true is it that in any pin-suits calling for a display of muscular strength, fleotness of foot, Btamina, or phy sical skill, casualties will now and again occur, bo tho rules ever bo fair and honour able, and the courtesy exhibited on either sido of the most pronounced description. Moreover, it should ho recollected that thoro aro sports and spok'ta. Those who have a penchant for sword exorciao, for instance, need not Docessarily copy the example of cortain young gautlemon alluded to by Maik Twain, who were nst happy unless thoy wore throe-parts envolopod in diachylon plaator, and had incurred sundry slices and gocltfj of the face, the marks of which they would cany to tho grave. Neither need football players ysarn after that variety of the game in which "hack ing" is permissible, and launch out with their feet as though thoy wcro under con tract to furnish a supply of cripploa both for homo use and exportation. Thero is reason in all branches of recreation, but, as pro viously remarked, still accidents will happsn, and it necessarily behoves athletes to ascertain the best remedies for any little mishaps they pjay encounter.

That untoward events accaa^gnilly attend the deservedly popular gajue o; crickot most people must ba well awaro. Those who saw Mr Blackhaia, tho Australian, indulge in an impromptu pirn leul at Lord's on a cricket ball mid his knuckles becoming intimately acquainted, would not for a inomont be under tlie impression that hin Ewpastje display was a mere ebullition of ivt'ul lighi hosrtedness.- The truth is ho had flopped owe »/ Ulyott'a lightning doliv&ries with the back of hjs bare hand, and ho is by no means anxious to rapeat tho cxporimaiit. I havo had the curiosity to en dgavour fcoascortain how the Australians have oontinued day nftor day to put in an appear ance at tho wickets in such grand form and to display itacl} itntiring energy. Of course, they, like other dbvetii^ of the gamo, are subject to tho ill effects oiT bruises, to spiains of a more or le«s sevore character, ami to that stiffness of the muscles and joints wkli?)} so often results from extra bodily exartioi..

MR G. ALEXANDER.

who, in addition to managing tho business affairs of the toam, seems to have under taken in some respects the functions of tuodicul adviser, most cheerfully accorded svery information. In a manner his con freres havo met with a fair ahoro of disaster during thoir trip. No fewer than four or Iho havo at ono time or another been placed temporarily hum de cvniiat whilst "others sufforod from minor atUictions which thoy could not afford the time to humour, and which, thoroforo, had to be borno with tho best possible grace under tho circumstances. At tame, he observed, they had at hand a pocujiarly sjiuplo, wonderfully efficacious, and, at the same tiina, remarkably inexpen sive lemedy for sprains, soreness, stiffness of tho joints, contumons and tho liko. Ho had, how&vor, run out of tho comparatively limited stock ho had brought with him, pud on making an inquiry ho had learned to his chagrin that ho could not obtain the preparation in England. This hadoausedsomoconotarnationamongat "the boys," and Beveral who wore slightly affected bad declined to try any othor remedy. Questioned a.3 to this compound, ho remarked that it waa St. Jacob's Oil, ths potency of which in the removal of pain thoy had experienced many a time and oft. \ carious thing abaut this oil was tho ex trains rapidity with which it performed its good offices. "JJidn'fc go fooling about and wasting time, but gota fo business at once," I suggested, and a hearty acquiescence was givsn To his delight Mr Alexander v/ar goon put in possession of tho information that the oil had been introduced to tha British public, and he wasted no timo in obtaining a stock. I have sinco eoen a letter from him, in which he announces that hp parries a supply of St. Jacob s Oil w itli him for uxo in any emergenoy, and intends to continue to de'stf. mh n. f. Boyle (of tho celebrated Victorian Athlotic Mater ial DepOt, Boyle and Scott. Molbourne) waa equally ready to bear testimony to the vir tues of the preparation. Ho had personal experienos of its valuo, and certainly looked upon it as almost a necessary item of his cricketing outfit. MoreoTor, he knew many athlotoa in Australia who wero equally as ardent admirers of the Oil as hovroa, and he told how the medicament had become qt.ite famcus throughout tho antipodean colony. It was rapid in its action, gays speedy roliof from pain, and ita effects were not evanes cent, "but permanent. Perhaps, it wa,i in timated, no one knew its benefioial pro porties bottor than MR BLACKHAM, who had taken an undue proportion of the knocking about that had fallen to the sharo of tho team. He had been bruised and battered at obo*t Intervals, but wont through tho ordeal moat manfully, and quickly resumed his duties with no diminution of ardour. That crack on the knuckles ho incurred in London had called for tho broaching of a " bottle," not of spirituous liquors, but of St, Jacob's Oil, so thot the punishment unwittingly ad ministered by IJlyett would speedily bo for gotten. Then, again, thero was MR SPOFJFORTH, who received a terrible blow whilst taking part in a match in London. Tho bruise he Lad to exhibit was of ghastly proportions, but it gradually disappeared, whilst its pain succumbed to tho all powerful specific, lv short, better testimonials as to the real vir tues of tho Oil could not possibly be ob tained than those voluntarily and cheer fully accorded by the Australian crickotor*, who pin their faith on that which has pro Ted trustworthy in. an infinitude rf trials. From a Canadian gentleman, a prorrlnent amateur oarsman, I learn that EDWARD HANLAN, <ihe lato aquatic Champion of the Worid, ranks amongst ono of the patrons of this preparation. Ho has found it beneficial in such slight attacks of rhoumatiom as have fallen to his lot, whilst he uses it whenever ho suffers from stiffness or from slight sprains. Hanlan, it ii well kn7 D' f h«n° great affection for compounds of any ascription, but he is not so foolish w to no"!ect affections of tho muscle* and joint*, tort &» w«* spot should become more troublesome itOl S^ilar v.owe are enter tained by WALLACE ROSS, whose iron frame is just as subject> to temp orary affections as those of much more slightly-built people. He has declared that thf St Jacobs Oil is a wonderful agent, and has joinod in its praise.

Sufficient has doubtless been B«ltopow that this preparation has ?B%bsh«l itß reputation as a remedial application in a greafvariety of cases. The testimony of 5,0 celebrated athletes 1 nave named _ w epecially valuable, inasmuch as they ha a subjected the Oil to as severe teals ua cou d be imagined. That it will ■peedilyatton great and universal notoriety in the Britwli Isles is beyond all question, and the more it is used the more spontaneously forth coming will be the grateful tributes lo its innate worth and its marvellous-power.

Tho following remarks by the Hon. Colonel Sir Qoorgo Whitmorc. X.C.M.0., on tho inspeo tion mado by him of tho Auckland Garrison, aro published for information, and the Officar com manding the District, while toollug gratified at tho oomplim»nmry tonor of them, must express hiß hopeß that tlio commeudatlonßef the Colonel commanding; will but act as an incentive to ihe Volunteers of tlio district to attain a B»i\( higher stato of military ofllcienpr, Bfi that In tho mantcuvrea to take njitoe iii' November, ho may cominuo to jeol tho samo pildo which ho now do* in hjs command. " On th« oompletlon of his inspection of the Auukhiud Garrison and Honorary Corps, tho Colonel conuijixßrtlnf tho J-orcoe feels lhat it ia only juit to them lhat he Bhould express his frrcnt satUfactiuu at Jimliiii: that so great a progrets h»a hc*u achieved by them in render ing thomselves efficient. Although perhaps owini} >o tlio shortness of notice n considerable number, loper cont. of tho Garrison Corps, were ab»ent from tho Siiturday'u inspection, tho ap pear«nce of tho men and their general smart iiobs wn« moat 6atikfactory, und the rapid piogrLvc and sood atiendunco of the Honorary Corp* oa Wednesday was all tlut could bo deiiiro<l, and 03oecl»lly deservi'.B recognition. '•Tho Colonel dosirco to draw tao attention of the Volunteer Force to the importanco of rsgular attendance, iv all events on all special paiades and reviews. It is unuiilly considered to be the weaknes« ut tho Volunteer ayetetu that atten dance can only bo rolled on in the case of the very best corps, and therefore attendance It held to ho a principal test of efficiency. Under these circumstancea Commanding Ofll-ers Bhould Impress on th»ir men the ntco^eity of being in the ranks on parade on all practicable occasions; Though the Force has not yet haft sufficient p-ae tlce in Battalion Driil to justify any criti<4<m of t heir mov<rmen taut thcl&to Inspection, SirGtorKO Whitmorc feels convinced,froi',l tho manner in which tho Companies acriuilted themselves, that in a very short time two oxcellent lialtnlions will bo availahlo in Auckland. Tho manner in which tho men have devoted their time and means to learn their duties and proTido thcmsolvoe with nnt- Colonci will not fail to report to His Kx'ccllency the Corumandar»ln-Chlef how flno a Volunteer For.-c tno colony pos;e"»e3 in this city. In November tho Colnnol trusts to find that tho whole Force may h»v« had the opportunity of acquiring some knoivl'flgo of UMtalion Drill. nr.d that upon thru occn.«ion tho mon will, by turninp; out ai their falhfrs rtid in 1802 and 1883, show the colony upon what forco it csn rely for tho defence of Auckland in casa of attack."
