HOW TO RUN FAR AND FAST.


Psychologists and lovers of athletics may
ee Interested in recent experiments and re-
searches of French artillery captain, NJ.
de Raoul, who, some fifteen years ago. be-
gan to try and find out the most economical
and least trying way of walking There are
many manners of walking, says the Popular
Science News, some of which are much de-
void Of grace, but it may be supposed that
as far as efficiency is concerned one must
be better than the others. NJ de RaouI
has come to the conclusion that as far as
fast walking is concerned, the best method
Is that which he calls marche enflexiOn
The principle is to run without leaping to
raise the body above the ground as little as
possible. to keep the knees bent the upper
part of the body inclined forward so that
practically you are always running after
your center of gravity. The feet must be
raised only very slightly. NJ de Raoul,
says that he can now take any man be-
tween twenty and sixty and teach him to
run as long as his legs can carry him with
out getting out of breath. Some men can
on the very first trial of the method, run
seven or eight miles without stopping
while with the ordinary tactics they could
not have run over a mile. The first kiio-
meter IA kilometer is five-eighths of a mile)
is usually covered in seven minutes and a
quarter, the second in six minutes, and the
third in five minutes and forty-five seconds
An interesting feature of NJ. de Raours
researches is that even after a long run
according to his method, a stiff walk is no
trouble at all; the muscles which work IN
both cases do not belong to the same set
and while one exercise is performed the
muscles which minister to the other rest
