THE DISADVANTAGES OF eloNsss.
Some Remarkable Facts About the Great
State of Texas.

Some Remarkable Facts About the Great
State of Texas.
The fat boy in the museum remarked one
day that proportions such as his had their
great disadvantages. This statement Of q
profound truth, based upon personal expe-
rience, seems to apply very well to the state
Of Texas. There are disadvantages In big
ness. This fact will impress any one who
reads the report prepared by General
Adolphus w. Greedy, chief signal officer,
on THE Climatic Conditions of Texas"
The Biographies, as u rule, do not help
sne to acquire correct notions of the size of
Texas. The state is so large that few atlas
sheets show it on the same scale as other
states, except on general maps of the coun-
try. Studying Alabama on one map sheet
and Texas on another, the attention Of the
student is seldom called to the fact that
Texas is shown on a much smaller scale
than Alabama, and very likely he leaves
school with quite erroneous notions of the
size Of Texas as compared with Alabama
and other states
Although Texas belongs to the drainage
basin Of the Atlantic, its extreme western
part in FL Paso county is about 200 miles
nearer to Pacific waters than to the gulf of
Mexico. A part of the Panhandle is nearer
to the Great Salt lake Of Utah than to the
gulf of Mexico. Fourteen of the 228 coun-
ties are larger than the state of Delaware.
The distance from Ell Paso to the eastern
boundary of the state is as great as that
from New York city to Chicago. The north
west corner of the Panhandle is as FAR
from the southern boundary at Brownsville
as Chicago is from Mobile. While the ex-
treme northern part of Texas is in about
the same latitude as Norfolk, the most
southern point of the state is scarcely 100
miles north of Key West.
Texas is one of our great seaboard states,
only California and Florida exceeding it in
length Of seacoast, and yet there are large
regions in the state that are further from
the sea than many Of our political divisions
In the interior, such as Idaho, Nevada,
kentucky, Tennessee and Ohio.
It must make the intelligent citizen Of
the great state smile when he is asked,
How about the climate of Texasp AS
Texas enjoys a variety of climates, it takes
some time adequately to answer so COM
prehensive a question. The state extends
across IL degrees of latitude. While snow
and ice are practically unknown in its
southern portion, there are large areas
across which the severe 'norther" sweeps,
and where a temperature far below the
freezing point is not uncommon.
General Greedy sums up the climatic di-
versities of Texas in a striking manner
when he says, THE apple and olive, cotton
and hay find congenial habitat" there.
With regard to the rainfall, some portions
of the state have less than an inch a month
and are part of the arid regions, while otLer
sections have more than an inch a week
New York Sun.
Fairhaven herald. [volume] (Fairhaven, Wash.) 1890-????, 1893-05-05

We often speak Of our bodies as machines
or engines working upon principles similar
to those employed in mechanics. The idea
that the food we eat resembles in its action
the fuel supplied to furnace is familiar,
and yet one can hardly avoid little start
of surprise upon finding the laws of heat
engines soberly applied to explain the
growth of plant and animal life.
This has been done by Mr.. j. Parker be-
fore the Philosophical society in London.
He points out, for instance, that the in
crease of available energy resulting from
the building up of a plant out of inorganic
materials can only be explained, in accord
ance with thermo-dynamic laws, by differ
ences of temperature during the growth Of
the plant, and his calculations show that
the difference between day and night Is
quite sufficient to account for the differ
ences of temperature required.
Similar principles apply to the growth Of
animals Nature gives nothing for nothing
and demands an exact equivalent for every
expenditure OF her energies, whether she is
aiding man to drive an engine, causing an
oak to grow or building up the muscles Of
an athlete or the brain of a philosopher,
and as far as her work upon our planet il
concerned the source of her supplies in all
these cases is the sun.-Youth's Companion.
Fairhaven herald. [volume] (Fairhaven, Wash.) 1890-????, 1893-05-05
Position of the Feet In walking.

There is but one opinion among physi-
ologists as to the proper position of the
feet, and that is thoroughly opposed to
the opinions Of the dancing master or the
drill sergeant. A study Of ancient sculp-
ture will show that no such conventional
method of standing or walking was
known among the Greeks. Here the feet
are turned straight ahead, with no in
clination TO the right or left. This is the
position which our sculptors prescribe
for their models as the most natural and
graceful one in standing and walking.
DR.. Thomas Ellis, one of the highest
authorities, in a monograph on this sub
ject names the flair, square" position in
walking as the most easy and natural one,
giving the greatest support to the body
with the least exertion. In this position
the feet are placed straight ahead, and
the lines of the footsteps are slightly apart
and are parallel. This is the light, alert
walk Of the Arab and is different from
the stealthy step of the Red Indian"

manner of planting his feet on the
ground.-Chicago Tribune.
