Physical Development Increasing

Two statues lately exhibited in Bos>
ton were modelled after measurements
made from the average man and the
average woman. The statue of the
average woman is the result of 5000
measurements made by DR.. Sargent of
Harvard, who says that it is so per cent
removed from the perfect type. The
faults of the figure are the hollow back
and weak waist. The oval fullness
about the chest, it is said, is not found
in any female figure in art. While the
average woman may still fall far short
of perfection in her physical make up,
the number of vigorous, well formed
young women who take an active in
terest in out of door life and physical
development is increasing every day.

myself determined to spend two
months vacation in that picturesque
country. We landed at Naples, and,
not being overburdened with cash,
decided to depend on guide books,
carry our own umbrellas and satchels,
and ignore the lazaroni, who we had
been told besieged every traveller, in

trihing service for him, for which he
was expected to pay The lazaroni,
however, had no notion of ignoring us.
The moment we set foot upon the
wharf we were surrounded by them.
AS my friend stopped to pick up his
cane, which he had dropped, several
articles fell from his breast pocket,
among which was revolver. A rag
ged fellow snatched it up and handed
it to gendarme, who gave it up on
the payment of 81. The carrying OF
weapons was forbidden in Naples.

three hours over our breakfast, hoping
in this way to escape our prosecutors.
We were mistaken. No sooner did we
emerge from our place of refuge than
they came forth from their lurking
place around the corner, and we got
rid of them only when, after long
tramp, we found rooms to our liking.
One OF the most amusing sights l wit.

Death Roll of Forest Fires.

The death roll of the western forest
fires is long one. 1t seems certain
that more than 600 persons persisted
in the fire at Hinckley. The popula-
ton of the place before the calamity
was about 1900. Evidently more
than half the inhabitants were caught
by the flames. There is grave reason
to fear that the total number of the
dead will never be known. Possibly it
might reach a thousand. The fires have
burned over twenty counties, and six
teen towns have been destroyed.

why DO Trees and Plants Grow Erectq

Exactly why trees and other plants
grow erect has never as yet been def
nitely determined. Some of the sci
entists have given it as their opinion
that the phenomena of erect growth
was and is in some manner related to
the action of light. That this hypo-
thesis is untenable has recently been
proven by DR.. Maxwell S. Masters of
England, who has found that sprouts
growing on green posts thousands Of
feet underground in the mines, always
assume the erect attitude.
