Memorial In westmtnster,

The approach of the hundredth ami
versary of George Washington's death
is noticeable by the increased interest
OF EnglishTnen in the memory Of the
most distinguished American Mr.
Gladstone was accustomed to speak of
George Washington as perhaps the
most perfect figure in history. The bet
ter that his name and Isme, character
and career, are known and appreciated
In England the better will be the good
understanding between reasonable En-
glishmen and that portion Of the Amer
lean people who still adhere TO the main
lines of Washington's Americanism-
Although George Washington never
saw England, he was essentially Eng

bodied the constitutional and liberal

AFTER a months trial the expert
ment of President Cassatt, of the Penn
sylvania railroad. in the use of oil to
lay the dust of country roads, has
proven success. Some ?. 400 gallons
of residuum oil was sprinkled over a
mile of road. and no trouble with dust
has since been experienced along that
section. One application of oil is said
to be sufficient to lay the dust on a
road for year, while it is necessary to
make two applications of water a day
toward the same desired end.

the mystery of the theft of the body of

SHOWN BIZ TIE WALK. :

says that the best and easiest gait IL
that in which the pedestrians toes point
straight to the front.
In an article which ne has written for
the Medical Record, DIR. Bradford makes
an exhaustive STUDY of the human gait,
It seems that the erect gait is an &C

found at its best only in ciJies and is the
result, DIR. Bradford says, OF smooth
pavements and the wearing Of shoes.
Barefooted people walk in an entirely
different way to those who go shod. A
shoe-wearing individual brings his heel
down first, and pulls himself along with
the muscles of the hip. aided by push
from the rear foot. A ba-erooted per

Another peculiarly detected by DIR.
Bradford is that barefooted people do
not swing their feet sideways IN walk

and vigorous walking, DR.. Bradford
says, the feet are brought forward In
a straight direction and without any
outward swing.
| One OF the strongest points in DR..
Bradford's article is the reproduction
of a photograph showing q crowd OF

it with the leisure gait of strength, IA
