The Leavenworth echo. [volume] (Leavenworth, Wash.) 1904-current, 1914-05-08

Fully so per cent of the men and
women who travel in the trains and
street cars sit cross legged, and this
habit is responsible for many ills, &C
cording to a prominent London physi-
clan. The prime objection against this
habit he says, is that the return flow
of blood from the leg is stopped at
the knee, the result being that the
veins in the leg swell up. All the
weight is thrown on one side of the
body, and the under leg goes to sleep
owing to the pressure put on the sci
attic nerve. The body should be equal
" balanced. Then there is another
danger. Too much crossing Of the legs
is sure to bring lopsidedness Let the
legs rest Imply. In that way the mus
Giles become eased, while the flow into
and the return of blood from the legs
is naturally done and the body Ii
equally balanced.

A Liberal Education.

That man, think, has had liberal
education who has been so trained in
youth that his body is the ready serv-
ant of his will and does with ease and
pleasure all the work that as mech
anism it is capable Of; whose intellect
is a clear. cold, logic engine. with all
its parts of equal strength, and In
smooth working order; ready, like a
steam engine. to be turned to any kind
of work and spin the gossamers as
well as forge the anchors of the mind;
whose mind Is stored with a knowl-
edge of the great and fundamental
truths of nature and of the laws OF
her operations; one who, no stunted
ascetic, is full of life and fire. but
whose passions are trained to come to
heel by vigorous WILL the servant of
a tender conscience; who has learned
to love all beauty, whether of nature
or of art; to hate all yileness and to
respect others as himself.
Such a man and no other | con-
ceive, has had a liberal education

Rounh Training at Eton,

Early in the last century many boys
at Elton, England, had to undergo q
rough training. An old Etonian who
left the school in 1884 describes his
experiences there as "worse than that
of many inmates Of a workhouse or
Jail. To get up at on freezing win
ter mornings; to sweep their own
floors and make their own beds; to go
two by two to the pump for scanty
wash; to eat no mouthful of food until
9 a. M; to live on an endless round of
mutton, potatoes and beer, none of
them too plentiful or too good; to sleep
In dismal cell without chair or table
such was the lot of boys whose par
ents could not afford to pay for a prt-
vate room. Some of these underwent
privations that might have broken
down a cabin boy and would be thought
inhuman If inflicted on galley slave y

Thumbs of the Apes.

The gorilla and chimpanzee, which
belong to the higher order or apes,
have many points of resemblance to
man, but there is one thing they can
cot do-that Is. twiddle their thumbs.
In the gorilla the thumb is short and
does not reach much beyond the bot
tom of the first joint of the forehnger.
1t is very much restricted In its move
ments, and the animal can neither
twidde his thumbs nor turn them
round so that the tips describe circle.
There are the same number of bones
in the hand of a gorilla as In the hand
of a man, but the thumbs of the mon
key have no separate fiexor or bending
muscle. This is why monkey always
keeps the thumb on the same side as
the fingers and never bends 1t round
any object that may be grasped. In
the gorilla the web between the fingers
extends to the second joint, the fingers
taper to the tips, and there Is callos-
ity on the knuckles on which the ami
NAL rests when walking on all tours.

InterstelIar Space.

That interstellar space Is not abso-
lutte void, but is partly filled with par
ticles of matter however small or In
visible, is the theory that an Ameri'
can astronomer has evolved through
the study of comets.
His theory is based upon the fact
that all bodies fall at the same rate
in a vacuum, but In the open air light
err bodies are retarded by friction and
fall at a slower rate. If interstellar
space were vacuum all stars, com
cts and planets would keep the same
relative position and speed But II 1t
were not vacuum the lighter celestial
bodies, such as comets, would tend to
be retarded by friction and fall be-
hind the larger and denser bodies.
This retarding would be most no.
ticeable at the part of the comets
orbit which is farthest from the sun,
and the comet would tend to change
It's movement at this point and as
sumo an individual direction. This
hypothesis seems to be borne out by
his observations Mechanics.

Trees and Fools.

Any fool can destroy trees. They
cannot run away, and If they could
they would still be destroyed-chased
and hunted down as long as fun or
dollar could be got out Of their bark
hides, branching horns or magnificent
bole backbones. Few that fell trees
plant them. Nor would planting avail
much toward getting back anything
like the noble primeval forests. Dur
ing a mans life only saplings can be
grown in the place of the old trees,
tens of centuries old. that have been
destroyed 1t took more than 5000
years to make some of the trees In
these western woods-trees that are
still standing In perfect strength and
beauty, waving and singing in the
mighty forests of the Sierras. God has
cared for these trees. saved them from
drought, disease, avalanches and
thousand training. leyeling tempests
and floods, but he cannot save them
from fools. Only Uncle Sam can DO
that.-John Muir.

What Kisses Sound Like to an Actor

In the American Magazine David
Warheld, giving his stage experiences,
tells how terrible 1t Is from the actors
point of view to be Kissed:
Il next appeared at the Wfgwam,
telling stories and giving limitations.
| came a terrible cropper, something
fearful was second in the bill,
which is the worst place but one.
shall never forget the anxiety felt
on that occasion as stood In the
wings waiting for my turn to 60 on.
At last | appeared before the foot
lights. The audience was drifting in,
shutting In in a desultory way. could
not get its attention. 1t was awful,
awful. The few friends l had there
applGuded me. but the others Kissed.
1t sounded as If 10000 steam pipes
had burst A hiss to a sensitive man
and all actors are sensitive since all
are vain-is like the strike Of rat
tlesnake. 1t is so venomous, so cruel,
so unnecessary! 1t is as If you had
done the people out In front an injury
with malice prepense instead of having
sincerely tried to please them. You
don't even dare to. face your own
mother; you're so dreadfully guilty"

SPRING PRUNING

A great many questions have come
to the Experiment Station lately rela-
tive to how late apple, peach, and pear
trees could be pruned in the spring.
The pruning can be done with entire
success at any time during the spring
months. 1t is usually little more
successful and satisfactory to do the
work before growth starts in the spring,
but the pruning should not be de-
layed year on account Of the inabil-
ity Of the manager to do the work at
an early season. The later the prun-
ing is done in the spring the stronger
is the tendency toward the checking Of
growth, or, If it does not do this, it
will be less stimulative on wood growth
and result in accomplishing no more
than simply the removal OF the wood
that has been cut away. In some
cases the latter may be hlghly deslra-
BILE.
Wounds made on large branches
sometimes bleed" when made in the
middle of the rapid growing season. 1t
seems however, that there are other
conditions more influential in causing
the bleeding of wounds than the mere
date of cutting. If pruning is done
after growth starts, more care should
be exercised to paint the wounds. II
bleeding takes place so that paint will
not cover the wound we'll, then the
wound should be scraped and well
painted and soaked with disinfectant
like Bordeaux mixture or the corrosive
sublimate. If this is done, these bleed
ing wounds will not serve as sources of
infection or spread Of pear blight and
other diseases.

Ancient Eqyptians.

That the ancient Egyptians were not
negroes is certain, and it is equally
certain that they did not belong to the
Semitic or Jewish race Said the late
Professor Huxley: II am not aware
that there are any living people who
resemble them, except the Dravidian
tribes of central India and the Austria
lians, and [ have long been inclined
to think that the latter are the lowest
and the Egyptians the highest mem
bers of a race of mankind Of great
antiquity, distinct alike from Aryan
and Turanian on the one side and
from negro and negrite on the other"
In a word, nobody can say with any
degree of assurance what breed of
men the builders Of the pyramids
were.-New York American.

Those who were fishing at Twin
Lakes knew they were in the right,
but the game warden in that locality
doesn't have many visitors so here was
a good chance for him to polish up
his star and make showing. A warn
ing to those who go fishing at this
place: Be sure to have your hunting
and fishing license instead of receipt,
or it will cost you another dollar.

The LuokIess Proorastinator.

The procrastinator is always liable
to be luckless. TO postpone duty
that should be discharged at once Is to
invite trouble for all concerned. Many
a man who is well disposed toward
life insurance is still deferring the
purchase of a policy which would be
a boon to his family in the event of
his DEATH The would be insurant Is
in good health today, but tomorrow
he may be stricken with disease
that may bar him from the ranks or
the insurable. His reason for putting
off securing a policy may be that 1t Is
inconvenient at present to pay the pre-
MUM. But he should consider care
fully the fact that life insurance Will
never be cheaper for him than 1t is to-
day. His yearly premium on policy
taken out now would be appreciably
