to pull the knees and the calves Of the legs
together.
Exercise IX.-To cure pigeon toes, sit on
the edge Of a chair, and see that the knees
are together and the feet, both heels and
toes, are touching each other. Then, keep
ing the knees and the heels in these posi-
tions, alternately move sidewise the toes
of one foot from those of the other as far
as possible. Keep both feet fat on the
floor, and center all your thoughts and en-
ergy in the effort to get the moving foot
at right angles with the other.
Exercise X.-While sitting, hold out the
right Cor left leg at full length and ener-
geticaly turn the foot in and up toward the
inside of leg.
This movement remedies fat feet by
strengthening the muscles of the instep and
thus raising it. To aid any exercise for fat
feet, he who possesses them must always
try to walk on the outside of the foot.
Exercise XI.-For general upbuilding
exercise for legs of any sort. lie down on
the floor on the stomach, and after placing
a medicine ball or ottoman on the out
stretched legs at the clasped knees. rest the
forearms on the floor, with the elbows in a
vertical line with the shoulders. Then,
keeping the legs together, raise the lower
and press them hard against the ball, which
Is thus squeezed between the upper and
lower legs (Figure A.. Hold the position
until the legs begin to ache, then relax,
and repeat in a few moments.
This movement will not fail to make

and become normal in proportions.

Written for The Evening Star by Prof. Anthony
Barker.
A well-known surgeon once said:
'Over half the people 1 see on the streets
don't and can't walk properly, because their
legs are deformed in some way or another"
Physical culture instructors have found
that large proportion of their pupils, when
they come to them, do not possess normal
legs and, therefore. all schools of physical
culture have certain well-defined exercises
for making legs normal-for correcting
knock knees, bow legs, pigeon toes, fiat
feet, and legs which although they may be
free of any of these common deformities.
are scrawney and of insufficient strength to
poise a body properly and for its best
health.
1t is highly important to give heed to the
legs, for. only when they are normal can
one stand correctly; and If this cannot be
done, not only the free movement Of air
into the lungs will be hindered, but every
motion Of the body, both in exercise and
in every day actions, will be made more or
less abnormally difficult, according to the
degree Of weakness or deformity of the legs.
Thus an ill-shaped pair of legs is as much

SHORT OF OFFICERS.
The Navy is Seeking to Discourage
Reservations

(. The navy is short Of officers to man its
ships and on that account the officials use
every effort to discourage officers from leav-
ing the service. There have been several
cases where the designations of officers were
disapproved on the ground that their serv-
ices could not be spared. One of the main
reasons for the desire to leave the service
on the part Of young officers is the prolong-
ed sea service and the short tours on shore
duty.
Writing to a senator on this phase of the
subject recently, Secretary Moody said: 81
should consider 1t extremely unfortunate
If any officer were to give up his career in
the navy because of conditions which must
be only temporary, and especially at this
time when splendid development seems
to be In prospect for the naval service. We
have received SO enthusiastic and so de-
voted a service from the younger officers
during the period in which we have been
compelled to ask exceptionally arduous duty
from them, that should view with regret
any disposition to withdraw before it shall
become possible to in some degree. compen-

while trying to sit down.
This movement is extremely efficacious I'M
curing knock knees.
Exercise IL-For another good exercise
for knock knees sit down facing a friend.
put your knees between his, which are
tightly held against yours, and, while he re-
sists, push his knees far apart as they
will go.
Exercise ITI.-Standing with the legs to-
gether on smooth or oiled or waXed floor,
separate the legs far possible by slid.
Ing them out to either side. When the legs
are fully separated, hold the position for a
moment and then easily regain the correct
standing position.
This will be found a strenuous exercise
for knock knees. 1t will also strengthen
many of the more important leg muscles
and tendons.
Exercise IV-This movement, also for
knock knees, consists in gaining the correct I
standing position and then, with the feet 1
touching, pulling the knees far apart as ]
possible simply by the power Of the leg
muscles.
Exercise v-Starting from the correct
standing position, clasp the hands easily
behind the back, as to get them out
of the way, spread the legs well apart, /!
assume sitting posture, and taking care
not to move the feet one whit closer, en-
ergetcaly bring the knees toward each !
other and try hard to make them touch
Figure ..
If practlced constantly this movement
will do much to straighten bow legs.
Exercise VI-This exercise, also efficacious
for remedying bow legs, is accomplished by Z
first standing correctly, then grasping a
medicine ball, or an ottoman, or anything !
of similar nature, between the legs at
the knees, and pressing the knees in hard 4
against the ball Figure -. After the ball /,

In a room adjoining this was the cheese

any we have in the United States. 1 was

ANTIQUITY OF RHEUMATISM.
Evidence Of the Disease in Fossil Re-
mains of Man

From the Philadelphia Record.
Some months ago farmer near Lansing,
Kan, dug up the fossilized remains of a
human being, evidently woman. Recently
Prof. Williston and Prof Upham of the
University of Chicago made a thorough ex-
animation Of the figure and reached the
conclusion that the woman fell into the Mis-
souri, river Chen forty feet higher than now)
and was drowned 12,OO0 years ago. The
body was covered with lime matter, which
is preservative. Then age after age the
river strewed silt over the remains and
finally left it to be buried in the accumula-
tons Of the receding shore.
The SpeculationS and conclusions Of the
scientists are important, since they prove
the existence of human beings on this con-
tlnent at more remote period than is indi-
Gated by the relics of the earliest of the
buried cities of Asia, where man is supposed
to have had his first habitat after-he lost
his tail and ceased to live in the tops Of
cocoanut trees. The skull of this fossllized
human creature is we'll rounded and as
capacous as that Of the most advanced
Indians Of today. The professors affirm
that she was intelligent according to mod
ern standards.
Perhaps the most impressive discovery Is
that the bones of the fossil show that she
was pestered by rheuma tism." 1t has
been assumed that Noah was troubled by
painful joints, owing to the dampness Of the
ark and it has been a matter of reproach
to the medical profession that during the
sixty or seventy centuries from the flood
down to this day it has been unable to dis
cover remedy for this universal and pain
full malady. How much greater must be
the complaint when it is learned that for at
least 1900 years, and perhaps more man.
kind has limped with rheumatism hurled
missiles at the nurses and sworn at the doc
tors, just as now; that we are apparently
no nearer cure for this painful affliction
than was the suffering woman who 1900
years ago hurled herself into the muddy
current of the turbulent Missouri after try
ing the drugs of themedicine men in vain
