MANS UPRIGHT POSITION SAID
TO BE A BIG MISTAKE.

Is Not What Nature Intended, Say
Reputable Scientists After Max
ing Experiments.
Three of Germanys most reputed
scientists have been making expert
ments to prove that humanity makes
a great mistake in walking upright
instead of on all tours as nature in
tended. Thereby, they declare man
brings upon himself many physical
evils from which the more sensible
and less aspiring horse and dog are
free.
When man first stood on his hind
| legs and learned to walk as blped
| he disturbed the whole equilibrium
and poise of his organism; and since
then he has been trying in vain to
adapt his architecture and organs to
his unnatural carriage. AS he failed
| in this attempt he has brought upon
| himself weakness and disease.
| One of the first to occupy himself
with this thesis was Prof. Ernst
Haeckel, the Jena biologist and OAR
winian The problem has now been
brought much further by the expert
ments which DR.. H. Gerhart has lect-
ured on at the Berlin University
see what was the effect upon man
when he first took to upright walk
DR.. Gerhart placed bankruptcies in a
similar position and observed them.
He forced a large number of different
animals to stand, walk and as far as
possible live on their hind legs.
A typical test was made with fox
terrier, which stood and walked on
it's hind legs for seven hours a day
for % weeks. The terrier was then
killed and dissected and compared
with an ordinary dog of the same
race and sex. Examinations proved
that the change from four legs to
two legs had radically transformed
the terriers anatomy.
The natural architecture of man,
says Klotz, another scientific inves-
tigatOr, is quite obvious. 1t was
plainly intended that the spinal col
umn should be horizontal and that
all the vital and easily injured organs
should depend from it and be pro-
tected by it. Today man unconscious
Iy bankers after his lost position of
quadruped. This is seen by the at
titudes he takes during sleep. MI
merous scientific tests show that the
regenerative effect of sleep, both on
body and mind, is greatest when a
man sleeps face downward, as do
the majority Of animals.
Nightmares, sleep drunkenness,
brain pressure" and other abnormal
sleep conditions are never experience
ed by man sleeping in this position.
They are caused by the genuine biped
attitude Of sleeping on the back.
Sleeping on the back, with the limbs
Outstretched, is so unnatural that the
lower animals can be temporarily
paralyZed by fixing them in that pO-
sitiOn. In short, mans upright car
riage, which he regards as unique
distinction and glory is merely a
physiological blunder, and it will re-
main so until man has perfectly
adapted himself to it. Until then
he will continue to suffer from his
vaulting ambition to tower over the
rest of the animal creation.

Mrs. Benton Mcmillan, wife Of a
former congressman and governor of
Tennessee, is not a suffragette, and
did not hesitate to say so in New

idly that man would very shortly be

MILAN; only a few women want to

and the head of affairs generally, as
