HASITUAL POSTURE.
Unequal Development In the Two Sides
of the Body.

!
of the Body.
Comparatively few persons have both
sides of the body of perfectly similar
/ proportions. One leg or one arm il
shorter than the other. Tho two sides
| of the head are often of unequal size
1 Few persons have ears of an equal size
and symmetrically placed. The size and
position of the eyes vary. In the mouth
| and throat also we find inequality,
and the cartilage separating the two
nasal cavities is Oftener DETECTED than
vertical
This condition. of inequality In the
two sides of the body is called a SYM
metry.
Those who have observed the effects
Of school life on bodily development
must have noticed the influence of ha-
bitual posture on the symmetry and
health OF the body.
There is tendency among school
children, and especially among school
girls, to assume habitual postures both
in sitting and standing. The habit of
throwing all the weight of the body on
one leg produces corresponding throw
ing Of the upper part of the body to-
ward the opposite side in order to es-
blish the necessary equilibrium. This
tends, of course, to curve the spinal col.
umn, on which the upper part of the
body is supported.
In this position the body and all the
internal organs are thrown out of their
normal vertical position, aud the force
of gravity still further exaggrrates this
result. Thus the muscles of the neck
are unevenly exercised in the uncon-
scious balancing of the head upon the
vertebral column. Even the muscles Of
the face tend to become unevenly con-
tracted, and this, in time, develops Q
condition of asymmetry of the face
1t is well-lznown physiological law
that the use of muscle causes an in
crease in its size, while neglect causes
it to become smaller.
The steady use of 1.-THE same arm In
carrying set of heavy books to and
from school. the propping of one arm on
table, or the excessive use OF ono arm
or leg and the diSuse of the other-each
such habit slowly but surely brings
about its own result, unless constant
effort be made to counterfeit it.
The growing age is moro subject than
any other to such influences, but every
age is directly and powerfully infiu-
enced by any occupation or habit which
tends to the exclusive exercise of GER
tain muscles, or to the habitual taking
of a certain posture.-Youth's Compan-
ion.

Electrified Raind-oDs.

Strange stories are frequently told of
the doings of electricity, and there is no
doubt that OF all the forces of nature
this is the most capable of eccentric
manifestations. Maurice Despres. an
electrical engineer of Cordoba, de-
scribes n fall of electrified raindrops
which he witnessed last winter. Early
in the evening, after Il warm day, a
thunder shower came up, and as the
first drops fell Mr.. Despres heard them
cracl1le as they neared the ground.
Then he noticed that from the falling
drops little sparks darted toward the
walls, the trees and the ground as the
drops approached them. The phenom-
enon lasted only a few seconds and
ceased as the rain became heavier.

ABOUT EARTHQUAKES.
Description OF the Two Ways In Which
They Are Caused.

Description OF the Two Ways In Which
They Are Caused.
| An earthquake takes place when
| there is too much steam under the
ground; but remember that it is sud-
den explosion. and not slow upward
pressure. Surprising there were a hun
dred boilers, or more, buried four or
five miles beneath the surface of the
earth, and that they should all burst;
we should have result similar to an
earthquake. The ground would shake,
heave, subside, and even crack open in
great assures. You would hear noise
which might be low and muffled. like
thunder, or a sound like that of the
earthquake at Ischia.
Again, the crust of the earth is not
wholly stable, but continually rises and
sinks; this country, for instance, sub
sided eight or ten miles during one
epoch Of geological time. Not only is
the crust subject to n great do,enudrd
pressure, as n result of its enormous
weight, but also to still greater pres
sure from the sides. You know how
spple-skins wrinkle when they are
baked; that is because the apple under
the skin shrinks when the juice cooks
out: as the skin does not contract as
fast as the apple, it wrinkles when it is
brought closer together. Now, the
earth Is not unlike the apple: there is
the outer crust, which corresponds to
the skin. and there is the inner earth,
which corresponds to the apple. AS the
inner earth tends to contract faster
than the crust, the latter tends to
wrinkle. But as the crust of the earth
Is rigid It does not wrinkle easily and
resists the great side-pressure. After
the crust has withstood. this side-pres-
sure for a long time and been at the
same time pressed down very hard by
its own weight it may suddenly break
with a snap, and terrific jar is the re-
suit. In many earthquakes the violent
crash is followed by a sudden sinking of
the ground, which buries whole towns.
This Is because the crust is broken, and
sinks rapidly by it's own weight
So earthquakes may be caused in
two ways: first, by the explosion of
steam beneath the surface of the earth;
second, by the sudden swapping of the
earth's crust Either of these, of
course, would jar the surface of the
earth. Sometimes it shades back and
forth, or up and down; sometimes it
rocks like a cradle; but the usual effect
Is trembling motion, produced as if
by some great shock dealt from below. |
While we usually think of earth |
quakes as taking place on land, they |

Skin blemishes, like
foul teeth, are the more
offensive because they
are mostly voluntary.
The pores are closed.
One cannot open them in

The resolutions adopted by the
John b. Hood camp at the meeting in
the senate chamber on Thursday
evening were incorrectly printed in
The STATESMAN yesterday. They
had the chairman of the committee as
John p. c. Whitstone, which ought
to have been John p. G. Whitehead
of Dallas. Colonel Whitehead wrote
the resolutions and made beautiful
address in their favor. His eul1gy of
General Beauregard was not only
just, but it was couched in the most
classical language and delivered with
feeling that entranced the large and
appreciatlve audience assembled in
the senate chamber to pay a Texas
tribute to the memory of the last sur
viving general OF the Confederacy.
Colonel Whitehead revived the recol.
lections of his splendid oratory before
an Austin audience who years since
enjoyed his eloquence.
