Americans, Physical p.veIopmsnt.

While this country may excel in a
competition Of trained athletes or in
certain kinds Of mental ingenuity or
shrewdness, 1t is certain that the aver
age man Is far from model of per
feet physical development. A casual
inspection OF the crowds on the streets
Of any one Of our large cities will re-
veal pale, undernourished and poorly
developed youths and pasty, flabby men
in large numbers and will convince the
open minded observer Of the desirable
ity for the Individual OF some form of
regular physical training. That the
country bred. moreover, are not greatly
superior to those brought up In the
city has been the experience Of most
military men who have had occasion
to handle large numbers of troops

Selecting Your Broker.

In the Woman's Home Companion
Harold Rowland has an article enti-
tied The Woman Who Wants to In
vest" In which he says:
"A good broker is as valuable to the
intending investor as a good doctor to
the-presumably unintending-invalid
The broker knows the business. He Is
stepped in the facts of the world Of
finance. His judgment is trained by
study and experience and observation.
His advice is worth having.
But be sure he is a good broker.
There are charlatans and confidence
men even among stockholders, though
the proportion is not nearly so high as
the novelists of high finance would
have US believe. Be as careful In pick
ing out your broker as In selecting
your lawyer or your doctor. Your
chance of getting a good one If you are
equally careful is quite as good"

COUSINS OF THE CRAB.
The Little Bugs You Often Find Under
Decayed Loo.

Decayed Log.
Every one has seen the curious littl,
fiat gray creatures that scurry out OF
sight when you lift decayed log or {
moss covered stone In the woods Oh
near the water. They are the arma
dillidia, or isopods of the genus oni
scoidea, commonly called the arma
dillo, sow bug and pill bug.
They are really not bugs at all, but
crustaceans or distant relatives of the
crab, with gills provided with air tubes
not unlike the air tubes through which
Insects breathe all over their body. A
favorite food of frogs, toads and sala.
manders, the pill bug itself subsists
largely on decaying vegetable matter,
and some believe it to be a useful
scavenger.
According to the Geological Society
Bulletin, the name armadillo was CIV
en- 1t because of it's habit when dis
turbed of rolling itself up into ball,
as the mammal Of South America does,
but the crustacean Is shrewder than
the mammal, for, whereas the arma-
dillo never uncoils when 1t is caught or
fr!ghtened-and therefore its shell Of
ten serves as Its own roasting pan in
the ovens Of equatorial countries-the
pill bug after rolling itself up once or
twice and discovering that it is still In
the presence of danger will give up the
useless stratagem and try to make of
unnoticed.

Lieutenant General.

Many of us are puzzled to know why
a lieutenant general ranks higher than
a major general. Perhaps the explana-
ton is that the titles date back to the
commonwealth, when the country was
divided into military districts. the less
important under the control of a SER
geant major general. the rank beyond
that Of colonel. and the more impor-
tant being governed by lieutenant
general, the captain general being
Cromwell himself. The lapse of time
has deleted the sergeant from the ser
geant major general.-London Chron-
icle.

ASLEEP AT THE WHEEL.
A Reason For Some Of the Automobile
Accidents at Night.

HCCtuento At NI9Nts
Frequently when there Is an acct
dent where the automobile runs of
the road, hits an obstruction or is up
set, the driver or some other occupant
Of the car or the reporter says that
"the steering gear gave way" Yet II
is safe to venture that 1t is not the real
reason for the accident. What often
happens is that the driver goes to
sleep.
In a report of an accident some
time ago the driver frankly said he
went to sleep and the next thing he
knew he was under the car, which was
thrown against an abutment The So
porf1c effect OF driving an auto at
night for several hours is really re-
sponsible for more accidents than de-
fective construction The constant VI
bration of the steering wheel, the con-
tinuous noise Of the machine and the
drone OF the wind have the same eff
feet as does the buzz OF an electric fan
on most folk.
Before the driver realizes 1t he is get
ting drowsy. The wheel is held more
and more loosely. Gradually the car
takes the line Of least resistance, aid
ed by the Stacking (but not totally
abandoned) control Of the driver, The
next thing he knows he is off the road.
Sometimes the car oyerturns Some
times the driver escapes, together with
the occupants Of the car. oftenimes
the dereliction results in injury or
death.
II more drivers realized the danger
of not keeping awake there would be
fewer accidents. At least this Is the
opinion Of experienced drivers.-Chi-
cago Journal.
