Harsh Environment.

In Limousin there is a barren range
OF low hills which lies along the div.l-
ing line between the departments of
Dordogne, Correze and Haute- Vienne,
about halfway between PerigueuX and
Limoges, says Popular Science Month
". The water-courses show the Ioca-
ton of these uplapds. They extend
over an area about seventy-fiye miles
long and half as wide, wherein average
human misery is most profound. Dense
ignorance prevails. There is more illit-
eracy than in any other part Of France.
The contrast in stature, even with the
low average of all the surrounding re-
gion, is clearly marked by the dark
tint. There are sporadic bits of equal
diminutiveness elsewhere to the south
and west, but none are so extended or
so extreme.
Twothirds of the men are below five
feet three inches in height in some OF
the communes, and the women arc
three or more inches shorter even than
this. One man in ten is below four feet
eleven inches in stature. This is not
due to race, for several racial types
are equally stunted in this way within
the same area. 1t is primarily due to
generations Of subsection to a harsh
climate, to soil which is worthless for
agriculture, to a steady diet Of boiled
chestnuts and stagnant water, and to
unsanitary dwellings in the deep, mar
row and damp valleys.
Still further proof may be found to
show that these people are not stunted
by any hereditary influence, for it has
been shown that children born here.
but who migrate and grow up else
where. are normal in height; while.
those born elsewhere, but who are sub
ject to this environment during the
growing period of youth, are proper
tionately dwarfed.

insinuate

WE arc not going to insinuate that our Pepulist friends arc afraid of war, but somehow or other we have not heard of their taking any active part is raising volunteers for the war with Spain. Do they approve of intervention in behalf of Cuba; or have they reasons for not taking part in this ..affair? /? Some good populist ought to raise at least one company from the ranks of that party to go with the 8 1000 Democratic and Republican voters who will probaly be out of the State when the September election is held .-Arkansas Dem ocrat.

THE Spanish soldiers in Cuba are armed with one of the best modern rifes-the Mauser, which will kill at two miles-and it will be folly to send troops to fight them who are not equally we'll armed, The antiquated Spring fields, with which the greater DOT. tion of the volunteer army are now armed, should give way to new guns before these men arc sent to Cuba.
