SHORT WlNDED.
why Some Persons Become BREATH
less with Severe Exercise.

Breathing consists of two rhythmica]
alternating s-inbreathing In
which the muscles Of the chest play
their part, and outbreathing. in which
the elasticity of the lungs and the
weight Of the chest force out air. The
number OF breaths. which varies with
the age, is one to every three or four
pulse beats. In ordinary breathing on
.ly about one-sixth of the air in the
lungs Is renewed. but in exercise the
amount is considerably increased and
the number OF breaths multiplied.
In disease such as reduction Of lung
area the blood is in danger of becom-
ing overcharged with carbonic acid,
and the lungs struggle to get rid OF this
and to bring in more oxygen. Exercise
causes similar change. and II OF the
right sort and not too long continued
the circulation and breathing are
Quickened, and the result Is good.
In severe exercise. such as long con-
tinued speed trials. the quickened
breathing can no longer cope with its
task, so carbonic acid accumulates
faster than the heart and the lungs
can deal with it, and breathlessness re-
suits.

strong feeling that the nomination this

cordingly Mr.. Metz received very good
support and ran close race to Mr..
Reagan. but was beaten. Mr. Hoffman
only received the support OF his own

Reagan and Metz. The defeat OF Mr..

The Word IL Supposed to Mean
Things OF Little Value.
The word haberdasher first appears
in the language as coming from haper-
tas, the name of q fabric mentioned in
the Liber Albus along with wool, can
vas and felt. as subject to- customs
duty, about 1419. A parallel and al
most contemporary list has haber-
tassherie.
The word is supposed to mean things
Of little yalue-small wares such as
buttons and tapes. Skeat derives 1t
from the Icelandic haperbask-trum-
perry, pedlars' wares. In register OF
burials OF Ware in 1856 we have one
entry: "Michael Watkins. London,
haberdasher of hats" probably this
being the first material Of which hats
were made.
Chambers gives another meaning to
the word He says it Is derived from
the ancient name for a neck cloth,
berdash, which is derived from beard,
and tache, a covering.
,Hapertas was originally cloth OF
a particular kind, the width of which
was settled by Magma Charta. Hence
a haberdasher was the seller of haper-
