Mhv ann Lnns Are small.

According to Or. W. Il. Grffis, who
formerly lived In tokyo, 1t is no new
thing for The Japanese to want to
grow large. They have been trying for
years past 10 increase their stature.
! The cause for their diminutiveness
Is given by Dr. Griliis as follows:
The Chinese and continental Aslatics, as
| IN ages past use chairs. Island humanity
I'm Asia, on the contrary utilize the mat
and the folded legs. Their heels or ankles
serve as cushions The Japanese inven-
ton of the tatami COR stuffed ana cushion
like floor coyering) acted as a terrible Sc
duction. II shortened stature. Knees In
Japan were made to do the work winch
IS elsewhere relegated TO parts of the
body more literally cushioned with flesh
But the habit hindered the circulation OF
the blood TO visiting foreigner sitting
In correct Japanese style 1t means first
discomfort then torture then paralysis.
One invariably falls asleep at the wrong
end
Mountalneers and boatmen are notori-
ously taller Instead of the southern men
being Of greater stature than the north
ern the Sendal soldiers and those In the
gallant Second division, FOR example, are
taller than men from farther south. 1t
seems at least probable. from the old pic
lures that in ancient times, before the
age Of the tatami, the warriors of the
race that came rom the Sum
gari valley into the archipelago were
taller.
The writer adds that the Japanese as
a race are underfed in the best of
times He asserts, however, that the
Japanese are getting taller by sys-
tematic exercise, more varied diet,
correct habits of sitting and the prac-
tlce of true hygiene in common life.
Baron Takakis experiment, recently
Of accelerating growth by
means of western forms of diet will be
with interest outside of ia
pan, FOR not a few Caucasians, fami-
les as well as individuals, would be
glad to add to their stature.
