For a long time the people of

OF ithe delay and inaction, an APP
peal was made to the state railroad
commission to compel action. Hon
E. A. Morley, one of the members
of the commission, recently came
to Libby and looked into the situa-
ton. Week before last Mr. Kennedy,
of the Herald, wired Mr.. Morley
that the complaints OF the people
were growing more lncessant and
asked if something couldn't be
done in the matter at once. In

we have witnessed one of the great

THE DISAPPEARANCE
OF OUR TOE-NAILS

The reports now SO frequently seen
concerning the birth of children with
out toenails on the little toe of either
or both feet draw attention to the
fact that it is not likely to be many
centuries before the wearing of boots
NAV modify toenails considerably, or
even cause their disappearance. As
il is. they have become rudimentary,
not serving any useful purpose, says
the San Francisco Examiner.
Several causes have led to this. The
first probably was the loss of the pow
er to grasp objects with the feet. This
has not disappeared. but it is wan
ing fast. Nearly every one can pick
up stone the size of a marble in
the joint between the toe and the
foot, large number of people can
pick up a lead pencil lying on the
floor, but very few can pick up pin.
Yet the outer bones of the foot and
hand are the same in number, and
were once almost the same in posi-
ton. This loss of grasping power
was followed by the loss of hard,
curved-ove portion of the toenail.
The use of the foot in a flat posi-
ton led to the spreading of the nail
broadwise across the toe, in order to
form a greater protection, leaving it
in the shape of a broad wedge pro-
! jecting slightly beyond the skin. pro-
tecting the softer flesh when walking
on rough ground, through wiry
grasses or underground. The adop-
! tion of boots and shoes rendered this
| projection unnecessary, but nature
has not yet had time to allow for this
fact Especially is this true in the
big toe, which, as the advance guard
of the foot needed (and always still
possesses) the thickest and the strong
est nail Even now the nail of the
little toe has become so thin that
If it is allowed to grow beyond the

end of the toe it cracks and breaks
off unless it is cut.
Boots and shoes have made habit
ual the heel and toe method of walk
ing, to the exclusion of every other
form of step. So greatly has this be-
come habit that the unframed ath-
lete (even the commuter, though he
gets plenty of training) often tries to
run in the same fashion, instead of
only on the ball of his feet. The foot
print of the savage shows slight
heel impression, that of the civilized
man shows a deep imprint of the heel.
The heel-and-toe movement cudls the
toes backward on the foot. so that
today civilized man can bend the toes
of his foot further back than the
fingers of his hand, and this has the
effect of driving the nail further and
further back upon the toe, until in
many cases, the root of the nail is so
far back that ii has become impos-
sible for the nail to reach even the
end of the toe without breaking. The
little toe nail is disappearing fast.
and soon it will be as much forgot
ten as are the lost four toes of the
horses.
Here is presented an interesting
question for scientists to solve. "Will
the loss of our toenails prove an ad-
vantage or a disadvantage to man
kind? In other words, if such d
time does come through generation
and generation of shoe wearing peo-
pie, that the toenails are finally
made to disappear entirely, will our
wa liking be aided or hampered with
out the aid of the stout nails protect
ing the extremity of each toe
Possibly, by that time, we will have
advanced so far in inventions that
few people will ever walk more than

GIANT TREES LAUGH
AT THE CENTURIES
Sequoias Reported in Bloom of Youth
on Their Fifteen Hundredth
Ripthuay

Notwithstanding oldest living
things in the world are the sequoia
trees in the General Grant and Sc
quota national parks.
The government has just issued a
bulletin telling all about them and
how to get to them. These trees are
also the tallest trees known. Within
the two parks there are thirteen
groves containing over 10000 trees
larger than ten feet in diameter.
1t is estimated that some of these
trees were growing 1000 years ago.
In fact. annual wood rings have been
counted on one of the fallen giants in
the Sequoia park showing that 1t had
reached that age.
The great pines of the Pacific coast
400 and 500 years old. have reached
old age, but the seQuoia trees, several
times as old as the great pines. are
still in the bloom of youth.
They do not attain prize size or
beauty before they are 1890 years Cd
and are in their prime when 1000
years old, not becom .ng old in less
than 5000 years. Not only do these
trees stand in class by themselves
because of their long life, but they
are classed among the wonders of the
earth because of their giant size.

CANAL BILL EASIER
THAN ANTICIPATED

Washington, d. c., Aug. 22-
(SpeciaD-The unexpected early
agreement reached by the conferees
of the two houses on the Panama ca
nal bill, in which agreement the house
conferees most generally prevailed in
their contentious over the senate con-
ferees, clarifies the Panama situation
very materially and eliminates an
other stumbling block in the way of
early adjournment What was eX-
pected to be hard nut to crack, the
opposition of the transcontinental
railroads to certain features of the
bill as amended in the senate, proved
easier of solution than expected, the
representatives of the railroads con-
tenting themselves with outspoken de-
nunciation of those sections which
will keep railroad-owned vessels out
of the canal.
Senator elect Joseph +. Ransdell,
president Of the national rivers and
harbors congress. which body has
taken the liveliest possible interest
in the bill as a champion of free tolls
for coastwise vessels, said today In
praise of the legislation accomplished: ::
The country is to be heartily con-
graduated upon the message of the
Panama canal bill. In my judgment
It Is as great piece of constructive
legislation as has been enacted in the
last quarter century. 1t breathes a
spirit of staunch Americanism that
is truly refreshing. 1t Is original
bold and genuinely constructive.
THE provision for free tolls on
coastwise commerce is of the greatest
importance, and, in my Judgment
will be productive Of vast benefit to
the commerce of the entire union.
"The provision permitting Ameri-
can registry of foreign built ships
owned by Americans, and allowing
our builders to import free of duty
material for ship-building, is the
greatest step forward in fifty years
toward the reestablishment of the
American merchant marine 1t vii
