"The Call Of the wildernes,.-

The Return to Nature" cry. which
is becoming so prevalent and insistent
in these days of physical degeneracy
is, according to Richard A. Haste. an
effort OF nature TO preserve the race.
We are" he says. becoming over
civilized. The red blood IL thinning In
our veins. and the marrow of our
bones is drying up. The world is too
much with is. We are wasting our
powers and losing sight OF our origin.
But there are times when we are
reminded OF our inheritance-the free
dom OF unlimited space. and our kin.
ship with the life Of the wild. In the
midst of our struggles TO get on. when
surfeited with books or brain.favged
with too much thinking. when the fin.
gers have grown numb with the han.
ding of ledgers. and the eyes dim
with gazing at the ever-present dollar
sign: in the agony Of soul-repression
that attends this eternal strife of get
ting and spending. there comes to
every one. like the echo OF a memory.
the distant call of the wilderness. The
call is insistent-the impulse to heed
instructive. It is at once a promulga-
tion and recognition OF the greit
law ef race preservation.

We have somewhere seen e assert.

the most to move the world for good.
were the women with natuTal.sizcd

this. Deep breathing has much to do
with deep thinking: n CONSTRUCTED
waist means small vital capacity:
natural wais: means large vital ca.
paciiy. and consequent ability OF
hcalthful. vigorous life and action.
Said Miss Frances Willard. in one OF
her addresses:

comes to her Kingdom physically. she
will never really come at all. Created
TO be well and strong and beautiful.
she long ago sacrificed her constitu.

on her bylaws. She has made of her.
self an hourglass. whose sands of life
passed quickly by. She has walked
when she should have run. sat when
she should have walked. rcclined when
she should have sat.
she has allowed herself to become
mere lay figure upon which could
be fastened any lump or hoop or
farthingale that fachion mongers
show: and ofttimes her head is n mere
rotary ball. upon which milliners
perch whatever they please-be it bird
of paradise or beast or creeping thing.

Every duck hunter who went out to

Greatest Dam on Earth.

Fifteen years ago the highest dam
In existence was the Furens dam lin
France). the total height of which was
ITO feet. Since then three very much
larger dams have been built In the
United States. These are the Croton
dam In New York, the Clinton water
works dam at Boston and the water
works dam near Denver, on the South
Fork of the Platte river. says Critten-
den Marriott In November Technical
World Magazine. Each Of these at
present holds the record In one re-
spsct or another: the Denver dam 10
the highest In the world: the Clinton
lmpounds the largest amount OF water.
and the Croton dam contains the larg-
est mass OF masonry. But the Salt
River dam. when finished. will exceed
each of these In It's own specially: It
will be higher than Denver. will ex-
reed the Croton dam in masonry. and
will impound twice as much water as
all three put together. II will be go
fee: high from foundation to parapet,
will contain 100000 cubic yards OF
masonry. and will impoInd more than
. million acre-feet OF water: that is.
more than enough TO cover a million
acres G.500 square miies) TO a depth
Of one foot. IL will form lake fivs
miles long and one TO two miles wide.
covering an area OF $4,000 acres. Its
cost, with maintenance for ten years.
will be 100000 or s4.000.o00.

One OF the most sensible things q

The most important trio OF natural

Indispensable Requisite In Compound.
Ing Of Some Prescriptions.
It Is Of course true that some pro-
prietary medicines contain alcohol and
nearly all liquid medicines prescribed
by physicians contain It. No honest
man will defend the sale of intoxi-
cants under the guise Of medicine: but
every honest man should protest
against system Of wholesale denun-
citation born of malice. or ignorance
Of pharmaceutical principles. and fos'
tered by selfish interests. It is as.
sumed that alcohol is the cause OF in.
temperance: but there is = great DIFF
ference between alcohol and whisky.

found for use In the manufacture OF
medicines. Its .iscoverer would render
great service to the profession OF
pharmacy and the science OF medi.
cine. for alcohol Is q very expensive
ingredient and q cheaper substitute
would be gladly accepted. Unfortun.
ately tho word alcohol. In the minds
of many people Is associated exclu.
sively with bar-rooms. drunkenness
and all forms Of degradation and vice.
This is due to q lack OF knowledge
by the genera, public OF the fact that
alcoho! Is an Indispensable requisite
in drugs. tinc,ures and fiuid extracts.
All fluid extracts and tinctures on the
druggirts' shelves contain from 20 TO
30 per cent OF alcohol: and OF all
liquid medicines prescribed by ply
sicians more than 75 per cent contain
It In large proportions.
Alcohol !s required to preserve or
ganic substances from deterioration
and from freezing. and Il Is also re-
quired TO dissolve substances not soiu.
BILE In water. while Il contributes to
their preservation when dissolved.
Diluted alcohol Is largely employed in
