MAN ALONE
AGAINST NATURE

n Since Joseph Knowles, leaving
behind him all :cluthes and every
tool and implement of mankind
civilization, started for the Maine
woods a few days ago, to demon
strate the superiority of man to the
materials of civilization. his friends
have probably imagined it a most
dismal and hungry experience.
Perhaps though ha is quite as COM
Portable in his naked condition, in
the kindly summer forest, as others
in the perspiring Office.
AS a student uf wild life Mr.
Knowles will demonstrate his pro-
position, that man has not lost his
primitive powers, and can still be
independent of civilized conven-
fences. The Indians never lacked
fire, though without matches. The
food question will be easily settled.
Probably one of his first expedients
will be the dead fall''. To lure
an animal into some confined
place over which a heavy rock is
hanging. held up by stick resting
on a round stone, dislodged at the
slightest touch-this must be a
primitive lore going back to the
dust of the stone age.
Mr. Knowles two months alone
with the forces of the forest e y
have no particular significance ex.
cept suggesting how man is the
slave of clothes. Probably vanity
had originally much to do with
the custom of wearing garments.
Tattooing satisfied the savage for
a time. But decorated garments
permitted change Of style and led
to the inf1nity and onerous burden
of modern fashion.
Clothes are not 30 necessary for
warmth as people think. While
MIR Knowles is stirring his blood
by exercise, the rest of us keep
warm in cool weather by putting
on more garments, or getting up
to a fire thus dul.ing the inner
sources of vitality.
In this athletic age a good many
people are realizing this. Manu-
facturers says that men do not call
for as thick clothing as they did
some years ago.
