himself tha; the hollow on the out
side OF the foot Is rare. let him watch
the prints that seaside bAihers leave
when they stop on L dry plank walk
Most OF such footprints show 4 great

the foot. but nearly every one shows
straight wet mark on the outside.
The sandaled feet o, the Greek
goddesses in marble are much like
the feet of the modern women - at
any rate. of tho modern infant before
the feet have been modified by leather
shoes All the goddesses have the

shows the snail-like twist SO often
ascribed to the modern pointed shoes.

New York. chiefly In casts. whether
OF male or female figures, shows
often that contraction of the toess AZ
the joints usually ascribed to the
wearing OF short sizes. Even the
casts OF aucien; statues OF athletes
show this popularity. A few mumml-

Many paintings and statues Of
several Italian periods tell the same
story as to the similarity Of human
feet ancient ana modern Such pa-
tural decorations as hayo been pre-
served from the walls OF Pompeii
show that the models of Ponpeiian
artists had modern feet The child
Jesus is pictured in many Italian
pictures of 500. 400 and 500 years
ago as having the feet OF modern
infants The same thing is true OF
the feet in carvings, relicfs and the
like belonging to all ages.
Not only does art give small en-
conragement to the idea that pedal
deformities produced by footwear
have become hereditary. but the
modern infant bears testimony so
the contrary. Perhaps the feet OF
women suffer moro than those OF
men from iniudicioas footwear. bu,
infants seem to inherit not the pecu-
liarities of their mothers, hut only
the structural form.

The six cutting tests with the binder
showed an average of only sss pounds
of draft. six tests followed in which
the machine was run in gear over the

test, which is known as rolling
draft, showed an average draft

Ideal mower, new machine
also fitted with the bicycle bearings,
showed cutting draft in heavy grass
averaging only 126 pounds, and a
rolling draft of only o. pounds The
remarkably low draft-about half the
draft of ordinary machines-shown by
these figures for both machines was

A nota bic feature of the binder test
was the use on the Pony binder of the

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax
ative; efiectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation:
It has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in SOC and 81 bottles, but it is man
ufac.ured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup of Figs,
and being well informed, you will not

Bangkok. the capital of Siam. has
been termed very unhappily the
Venice of the East The New York
Tribune thinks that perhaps as re-
CARDS smells lin which alone there
is any comparison between them,s 1t
would have been juster to call Venice
the Bang kok of the West. And even
then an outrageous affront would
have been offered to Venice. 1t is
useless even to attempt description
OF the smells of Bangkok. To do SO
would require quarto volume. to
catalogue them would require the
services OF an analytical chemist.
and to read an account of them would
leave the reader in blissful ignorance
of his subject The streets are the
repository of every form OF refuse
and are never swept or cleaned by
hand OF man. 1t is appalling to con-
template what must be the death
rate in city inhabited by $50. 900 to
600. 900 persons, especially in periods
of great cholera epidemics, such as
