HOW THE LEGS GROW.
The Shocks of Exercise Lsngthen
 Them and Keep Them Even.

From the New York Medical Record.
 As a fact, says the author, our lower limbs are not usually both of exactly the same length, though they are so for all practical purposes. The left Is usually the longer, though the gait Is not notably influenced by this fact. At birth the lower limbs are shorter than the upper, and their movements are rather of the prehensile type. we are not born leggy like the foal or kanga- roo, but we gradually achieve leggi- ness" The bones increase in length, not so much by interstitial deposit, as by addition to their ends that Is, by progressive justification of the layer of cartilage which intervenes between the end of the shaft and the epiphysis. Justification goes on till the component parts of the bone are all united by bony matter, and thus the stature of the individual is determined.
 If from information or injury an epiphysis be damaged, one limb may be shorter than the other, or inf1am- matory stimulation may even induce an increased length in the bone af- fected. The skeletons of tortoises, not being subjected to sudden jars, have no epiphyses at the ends ot the long bones, whereas in the leaping frog the extremities of the humerus and vemur long remain as separate epiphy- ses. The continuous concussions to which the ends of the bones of the lower limbs are exposed, when wig orous child is excited by it's own nat ural spirit to run about, are doubtless of great value in assisting the growth in length of the lower limbs, which soon lose their infantile character, and become adapted for running and walk ing. By exposing the lower limbs to the same influences and resistances during their entire growth we manage to maintain them of the same size and of the same length, and gentle jars upon the epiphyses at the joints may be considered favorable to growth.

WHY so MANY FAIL.
The Reason So Many Catarrh Rem
 edies are Unsuccessful.

There are few trouble for which there are so many remedies and so-called 'cures' as for catarrh, and 1t may be added there are few diseases so difficult to really and permanently cure.
 Inhalers, sprays, powders and douches are all applied locally and give tempor- ary relief, often for only a few hours, and it is doubtful if anything like a real cure of catarrh was ever accomplished by the use of local applications.
 Catarrh Is a constitutional disease, 1t Is in the blood like rheumatism and to cure it requires an internal medicine to act upon the blood, to drive out the ca- tarrhal poison from the system entirely and anyone can readily see that a salve or powder or inhaler which simply clears off the mucous membrane of the nose and throat can have no effect on the real cause of catarrhal disease.
 The remarkable success of the new ca tarrh remedy, Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, is because it drives out of the system through the natural channels, the ca tarrhal poison, the germs of grip, bron- chitis and consumption and causes the hawking, splitting and gagging because the excessive secretion is no longer sup piled when the blood Is made healthy from the regular use of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets.
 The remedy is in the form of large 20- grain lozengeS, pleasant ana palapaple composed only of wholesome antiseptics and so safe to use that little children use them with perfect safety and benefit if the little one Is suffering from colds croup or cough from any cause.
 Stuart's Catarrh Tablets have been on the market scarcely one year, yet they have met with such popularity and sue cess that druggists everywhere in the United States and Canada now have them in stock and report a constantly increas- ing demand for them-
