RowLEGs ARE INCREASING.
Observing Tailor Makes This Rather
Mortifyinu Statement.

"Bowlegs are certainly on the il.
crease" said well-known tailor, "and
while it makes no particular differ.
ence in my line of business. we can
not help from noticing it. What spe
cial reason is to be assigned for the
increase in bowlegs is question am
not prepared to answer. But really Il
does not require the experience of a
tailor to establish the fact that bow.
legs are more common now than ever
before. OF course, the tailor, because
of the measurements he is required to
make, may notice things of this sort
more readily than the men who are
engaged in other walks Of life.
"We have cause to measure mans
legs when an order for a suit Of
clothes is left, and we naturally no
tice the size and shape of the legs.
Some time ago my attention was di.
rected to the matter by man whose
legs were just little above the aver
age when it comes to croOkedness OF
this kind. l made up my mind that =
would conduct little study along this
line. The results have surprised me.
I have found that but very few men
have straight legs-that is, legs that
are normally straight. The surpris'
ing fact about the matter is that in a
majority OF instances a billiard ball
may be dropped between the calves
of the legs.
mo doubt the habit of pushing boys
of tender years out into the industrial
field has much to do with it. Boys are
forced out now before the joints Of
the limbs are hardened, and they are
required to carry heavy loads and do
other things which are calculated to
produce the result I have been dis
cussing. There is no doubt in my
mind about this practice being an i'm.
portant factor in the development Of
bowlegs. OF course, there may be
other reasons for the conditions have
noticed At any rate, there are more
bdwJngs now than ever before"

What blessing, and what hours of
suffering, pain and misery would
have been saved had MIR. Moore
adopted the wiser course and used
st. Jacobs Oil at first, Instead Of
wasting time and money on worthless
embrocations and nostrums with
which. unfortunately, the market IL
flooded. The public should not lose
sight of the fact that st. Jacobs on
has conquered pain for more than fifty
years, and 1t isn't going to stop doing
the same thing now or at any future
