VIRTUES OF STILTS.


Shepherds In the south OF France have
long been noted for their use of stilts
in their occupation. The peasant OF
"Iandes" with pair OF stilts securely
fastened to his legs. standing frequently
more than six feet from the ground, Will
move about with great rapidity. Re-
Gently the military value OF these stilts
has been. recognized. After some drill
on these artificial supports, French in
fantry were able TO move very rapidly
and lay telegraph line quicker than
can be done by soldiers on horseback.
Once the men acquired the art OF walking
six feet above the ground they were
able 20 employ their hands as people
ordinarily do In walking and covering
the ground with giant strides, soon ac-
complished n distnce which would re-
uuire much longer time on foot The
advantage OF these stilts In military OPP

also apply the novel idea The utility OF
this apparatus in crossing rivers or In
marshy lands is obvious. and II might
not be a bad idea for the American army
