In particularly able article. the
current number OF Harper's Bazaar
gives some excellent advice as to the
correct position in standing which we
commend to the attention OF George
Bailey. of the Houston Pest. as follows:
t"Chest UP is the essential direction,
and one might almost say the only one
needed, since in lifting the chest the
shoulders arc at the same time thrown
back and down and the abdomen drawn
in; to swell the chest with full. deep
breath, and to hold the position, is the
secret of the correct position" The
point in this statement that ought to
be of especial interest to the editor
of the Texas paper is that which re-
.lates to the position of that part OF his
anatomy with which the diaphragm is
intimately associated. He would APP.

SOME ,IInATnoNs.

One OF tho worst things about the.
American people Is that they carry a
good thing too far. They get an idea
and they like It. THEY take it5up. they
push y. they carry It TO the limit. and
then stretch It little farther. They
make a new limit and pass that again
and again. Before tho idea is dropped
1T has become something very different
from what II was when 1t was begun.
The Marathon was such an idea. It
was a good thing to have one Mara
stl1on, Just to show the Greeks that
American dry goods clerks could outrun
all the successors OF Pheidippidcs. 1t
was not a bad idea to have a Marathon
on this side of the Atlantic. to show
our people how our athletes did the
work in Athens or In London. But the
idea did not stop here. Willy promoters
had Marathors everywhere for every
body who could put one leg In front
of the other. these races killed
number of men and broke the wind
of many moro, but they went on until
they ceased to draw crowds or interest
the public.
1t appears now that they are get
ing up new N1arathons. Out in Calf
fornia--on Sunday, of course-they
had Marathon dance. Seven couples
entered the race to show all Corners
that as long as the music lasted they.
could last. Two of the seven couples
broke down in the course of some six
hours or so, but five others continued
dancing until the police and the ply
sicians decided they would kill them
selves If they danced any longer. The
physicians were doubtless right. and
the police were certainly not wrong,
though. to be sure. the dance must
have been something awful II it was
too much for the coast. If they had
stopped the dance when it began the
authorities would have shown better
sense.
Variations. Now that we have begun
them we do not know when to stop.
fVhiles we are about it. however, we
might as we'll have some Marathons
that may be instructive as we'll as
amusing, or both.
We have several Marathons in mind.
which we are willing 10 start as soon
as entries are offered. We would nat
urally prefer a Marathon for Presiden-
tial candidates, but that will be use
less. because every one knows there
is no use in having race when a
Certain Party is a sure winner. In
lieu of this. we propose a talking
Marathon for the members of Con-
tablished, once and for all. who is the
longest-winded man in the House. Is
1t Chump Clarke himself? Is It the
immortal Gaines? Is it some one yet
unknown to fame? AS soon as old Joe
Cannon is disposed of, for good and
for all. this contest should begin.
If this plan prove impracticable, we
should like, for the public veal to
have a trustbusting Marathon. Who
is the real. the genuine destroyer of
trade? Is it old Taft himself. or
Is it the mighty One OF
America SO soon to resume his place
as the Pilot Of our. Destinies? A
philanthropic Marathon might also be
a good idea and a profitable one. Will
Andy be outdistanced by the new
Founder? Will Morgan begin late and
end in the lead? Will Mrs. Sage win.
the race BY giving all and signing
for more to give?
If we must have Marathons. let us
have these and save our legs and our
wind.
