ROLL YOURSELFTOHEALTH
BY w. R. G. Latson, B. s., Phi. D., M. D.

Among the gymnastic exercises which 1 have stolen
from the wise animals and preached about to less wise
human beings, valuable than the rolling
movements The animals know this by instinct and roll
ing is favorite exercise with them especially when they
are pleased or happy.
AS exercise for human beings rolling has peculiar ad
vantages In the first place mparts powerful and Wig
motion to the vital organs especially those of the
abdomen stomach, intestnes and liver Secondly, rolling
develops those alimportant but much neglected muscles
of the waist back and abdominal region Again. the act
of rolling gives not only the splendid around muscu
lar of moving the trunk and limbs but the power
full general massage provided by the pressure of the floor
against the body. Last and perhaps not the least advan
tage of this fine gymnastc is that requires after little
practice almost effort of mind muscles Like the
yawning and swinging exercises which have described
elsewhere in this series rolling is distinctly 'restng
exercise"
Rolling is the most adaptable exercise know From the
infant in arms (who is champion roller if let alone by
foolish grownups to the feebest invalid ocogenaran

sheep and curious birds were de-
scribed with wealth of detail.
The man in the moon was de-
Scribed as stronger and hairier
than an oprang-outang.
Many newspapers fell into the
trap. The New York Times thought
the story displayed the most ex-
tensive and accurate knowledge of
astronomy the New Yorker con
sidered the discovery "of astund-
ing interest, creating new era in
astronomy and science generally"
The hoax reached Europe by the
slow boats of those days and caus-
ed a tremendous stir among the
learned societies. One English So
ciety soberly declared that "SIr
John Herschel has added a stock of
knowledge to the present age which
will immortalize his name and
place it high in the page of sci
ence." ''"'
The French Academy Of Science
was discussing this wonderful dis
covery in solemnity when the mon.
umental fake was exposed.
Locke, who, though knowing lit
tie or nothing about astronomy con.
cocted the tale that deceived sci
entists and laymen alike, had al
last told the truth to a fellow re-
porter. -
