CHARACTER IN WALKING,
Observations Made by One Who Appre
ciates the Value of an Anony-
nous Existence.

Observations Made Dy one VINO Appre-
ciates the Value of an Anony-
NOUS Existence.
We do not voueh for the correctness
of the following indications of character
us derived from gait made by some
anonymous observer:
1t is well to beware of the man who
carries his left foot toward his right in
walking. giving an impression that his
right foot turns out and his left foot
turns in. This man is natural petty
larcenist He may, perhaps, have never
stolen in his life-that was only because
of fear or lack of opportunity-but all
the same he is liable any time to Sc
uuester unconsidered trities for pure
wantonness. He is of a kleptomaniac
nature. But he is not nearly so dan
oerous as the man who deliberately lifts
his left up from the thigh as though he
was going upstairs. That man is a
natural and an educated villain.
Where the treadmill is used in
prisons many conyicts acquire that pc
culiar step, but it is the natural care
full, cat like tread of the criminal. The
girl who walks with fiat foot planted
squarely on the ground, as though she
wanted it to grow there. may not be rs
attractive as the girl with the arched
instep, but she is a good deal better
natured. She is sure to be a good
nurse, kind hearted. sympathetic,
anxious to bear the burdens of others;
while the girl with the arched foot is
nearly sure TO be selfish. and certain to
be coquette if she walks on her toes.
The man of short, nervous steps is
ALWAYS business man of energy, but
if the stride is from the knees only he
is cold and selfish, caring for nobody
but himself. The man whose stride is
long, and at the same time ener-
getic, is generally bright. always en-
ratio and Unbalanced. often conceited,
always careless, fond of admiration,
generally willing to sacrifice much to
praise and eclot, and, while often a
good fellow, generally unreliable.
The diplomat and the financier have
a smooth, gliding walk, hard to de-
scribe, but easy to recognize there is
nothing sneaking about it, but it be-
tokens careful elaboration. as though
every step was carefully considered be-
fore being made. Great statesmen and
great philanthropists always have a
loose, shamsling gait, which comes
from thinking about others more than
themselves. The strut OF the vain
man, the lettering trip of the swell"
the lounging gait of the unemployed
club man. are ali too familiar to call for
description.
To say that person walks like lady
or gentleman is high praise. The gait |
can never be picked up in after life it |
must be born in the man or woman,
and cultivated in early youth. 1t is
lost to q man when he falls into bad |
ways, for so surely as he loses his con-
seiousness of rectitude and pride OF
honor, so surely will he pick up the
raft of the loafer. An honest man,
gentle or rough. never walks like . |

MEXICAN SPIRIT.

Celebrating the Anniversary of the Decia-
ration of Independence by laying the
Cornerstone OF a slaughter-Hou~e.
The City of Mexico celebrated the
seventy-fifth anniversary of the Hidalgo
declaration of independence in an origl-
nal if not a striking way. OF the TWEEN
ty thousand men who composed the Re-
publican army which under General
Augustine Iturbide entered the City OF
Mexico in 1921. only sixty-six survive.
Thirty-six of these reside the City of
Mexico, and n majority of these partici-
pated in the celebration. The special
feature, however, of the celebration was
the opening of certain public improve
ments that have been carried to compile
ton within the last few years. The old
from the mountains to the City of Next
co have been in part sup
planted by modern water-pipes.
On the 10th of September, the anniver-
sary of independence, part OF
one of the old aqueducts that have been
in place for centuries was demolished.
On the same morning was laid the cap
stone of the first department of great
ughter-house to cost $50, 200. This
is modelled on the system followed by
the Armours and the Fowlers, of Chi
cago, and it is curious feature of Mex
lean character that the building of this
slaughter-house is regarded as a great
public reform. On the same day were
inaugurated schools for children, schools
for workmen. and a Postoffice organized
on the plan of the Postoffice in the
United States. There were patriotic
displays in other cities throughout Mex
leo, but the Mexican papers seem to re.
gard the ceremonies in the City of Mex
leo as giving evidence of the DISPOSE
ton of the people to adopt what the
experience of other nations has demon
strated to be good for that country

The size of elephants is commonly
over-estimated. Their stature is almost
always exaggerated in those countries
where they are found wild. Even
European travellers of scientific training
have made notable mistakes in this re-
spect. African elephants which Major
Denham, one of the early explorers.
supposed to be sixteen feet high proved
to be less than ten feet when killed. In
Ceylon the native elephant, which was
formerly thought to be larger than the
African animal, is rarely taller than
nine feet; and Sir Emerson Tennent
says the largest specimens on that island
do not average more than eight feet.
Out of LOO elephants from which the
tallest were selected and measured with
care, on one occasion in India, there
was not one whose height equaled
eleven feet.-Riladelphia Press.

The Increase of Insanity.

Boston supports 800 insane, says Mr.. T..
B. Sanborn, not IS of whom will recover !
This is frightful! Insanity has in
creased 40 per cent. in a decade and most
of the cases are incurable. Whatever the
individual cause may be, the fact remains
that Uric Acid blood sets the brain on fire,
destroys its tissues, and then comes some
form of fatal lunacy.
Nothing is so pitiable as mind diseased.
Most brain troubles begin in the stomach;
then if the blood is filled with uric acid,
caused by failure of kidney action, and the
consequent destruction of the blood life
albumen-you have the fuel and the flame
and brain in full blaze as when one raves,
or in slow combustion, as in milder forms
of insanity. Rev. E. D. Hopkins, of st.
Johnsbury, VT, a few years ago was con-
fined in an asylum. He took terrible
cold while aiding in putting out fire in
neighbours burning house, and for twenty
five years that cold was slowly filing his
blood with uric acid and finally the deadly
work was done. The case looked hopeless
but he happily used Warmers safe cure
and recovered. That was three years ago
and having ridden his blood of all surplus
uric acid, he has remained well until this
day.
It is indeed terrible thing to lose ones
mind, but it is more terrible thing to suf-
fer such a condition when it can be so
easily prevented.
