HUMAN BODY LIKE DYNAMO
Not Storage Battery, Writer Says.
but Manufactures Its Energy Ae-
cording to Demand.

| have long been convinced that tho
well-trained human body Is a dynamo
or magnetic which manufactures it's
mercy according to the demand and
does not, like storage batter, con.
tain fixed quantity OF stored-up en-.
ergy or power, writer in the
Forum says. A little reflection upon
The great adaptability OF the body to
many varying conditions of existence
tends strongly to confirm this view.
I Is well known that no other animal
:an exist under such a variety of eli.
mates and conditions. and upon such
diversity Of foods, as man. But 1t
is not so we'll known, for example,
mat no other animal possesses the
endurance and capacity for labor
which man possesses. Yet 1t is in.
conceivable that any other animal
tnan man could have performed Mr.
Westons task In the time he accom-
plished 1t. Whenever a horses endu.
rance has been tried against mans,
the victory has seemed to lodge with
the biped.
The average mans endurance of fa-
ugue. ike his endurance of heat and
cold. fasting and feasting, great exer.
uon and absolute rest. can be ain: ost
lnoennltely increased. The only sat
isfying explanation OF this phenome.
non Is the preponderating influence of
his spiritual nature. Man can train
his body to do his bidding to a de-
gree hitherto considered impossible,
and evidently far beyond the capacity
OF brute. The body, when proper.
~ trained. manufactures the energy
II needs as 1t expends It, Our energy
Is not stored up within us to be drawn
on as a man draws water out of
cask' nor Is our so-called vitality a
nxed quantity. Great bodily strength,
huge muscles and deep chest do not
necessarily indicate endurance, or a
capacity for long-sustained exertion.
These attributes merely indicate the
muscular and osseous foundations
upon which an athletes prowess may
be developed. Man trains himself to
great physical or mental efficiency by
practice and care. He succeeds In
