...excessive the heart will become tired, the pulsations very rapid, but feeble, and unless exertion is brought to an end mischief will follow. Disease of the blood vessel is, however, of rare occurrence in early life, and any young man who is so affected should never for one instant think of subjecting himself to violent athletic sports. By a common and silent consent, the objection to active exercise passes over the ordinary ill received, and fixes itself almost entirely on one organ, the heart, and there, on almost one malady alone, hypertrophy, the overgrowth of the muscular substance.

...brings out a dozen defenders. The editorial department of a college paper must be critical at times, but, as the reflection of college sentiment, it is as often deprecatory of student shortcomings as of faculty haughtiness.

But, as for the Cambridge police, we think we may be pardoned, if, under the circumstances, we decline their society. Although a member of the faculty may enter a student's room at pleasure, a policeman cannot enter without a search warrant sworn out for that particular room. Therefore, unless this document is presented in regular form...
