Existence of Model Prison

Odd Counterfeits of Nature
Found in Snap-Dragon Pods,
Squash Seed, Rabbits Skull

The seed pods Of the common snap
dragon, according to DR.. Bashford
Dean, bear a most curious resemblance
to mummied human heads in minia-
ture. AS they arrange themselves on
the stalks Of the plant they look like
the poles Of skulls" which in coun-
tries where head-hunting Is a popular
field sport are set up In front of houses
as trophy memorials.
Not only is the color Of the seed
pods like that Of mummied heads, but
the faces are initiated, even Ito the
imaginative eye) including such details
as dried portions of the scalp, eyelids
and lips.
Another odd imitation in nature Is
exhibited by the sphenoid bone at the
base Of rabbits skull. 1t is shaped
exactly like the head of a fox-the
rabbits own arch enemy. Fox hunt
ers in England commonly have this
little bone mounted on scarfpin as
an emblem Of their favorite sport.
Squash seeds, when dried, says Doc
tor Dean, contract in such q way as
to present odd-looking surface mark
ings that resemble Oriental characters
Absurd though it may seem, many
learned Orientalists have made earnest
endeavOrs to read them in the hope
that they might reveal some hidden
secret Of nature.

which If followed, they say, will REM
eddy that ailment:
During exercise at all times, turn
the toes In.
Walk with toes of each foot point
ing to the front; in straight line, II
possible.
Stand with toes turned in; raise
body on toes, slowly, as high as pos
sible. Rest second, then with weight
of body borne on toes, lower slowly
down to floor, and repeat.
When in the house in stocking feet.
walk on toes; heels not touching the
floor. and toes turned In.
When sitting. cross the legs. the foot
always resting on the outer side.
The wearing of broad toe shoes,
with the metal "arch supporter" abso-
lutely abandoned, also Is advocated.

and keep slightly sway-backed.
Keep the lower ribs expanded at the
sides.
This, writes DR.. Silas Wright Gels
of New York, in the Medical Record.
gives you the attitude of maximum
vital efficiency.
Celebrating the three rules, lie says
only one impulse Is needed, for the
mind forms picture Of the attitude
in it's entirety and each movement Co
operates with the others. The effort
Is to be made by sheer will-pGwer,
without consciously using any local
muscular force. J
Expanding the lowest ribs at the
sides expands the lungs; they should
be kept expanded except insofar as
may be necessary to let them fall
slightly inward during each expira-
ton. The effect Of this is that In
breathing the lungs will expand and
contract from maximum to medium in-
stead of from medium to slight expan-
sion as Is usual.

and to all seeming appearances It ID
likely to continue forever.
With the practical poultryman. the
farmer and the market poultryman
the Barred Plymouth Rock Is a great
favorite, owing to its good traits in
egg production, as well as for their
fine carcasses for market purposes.
These fowls are hardy, early ma.
turing, and make elegant broilers in
eight to twelve weeks of age. Under
even ordinary conditions the Barred
Rock is profitable fowl for poultry
keeping.
Their claim as egg producers IS nm,
disputed. and when circumstances war
rant, they are not only fine winter lay
ers, but make splendid averages dur.
ing the entire year.
On the farm with unlimited ranra
and freedom Of habits the Barred Root
has made Its value felt as q most prof.
liable fowl for these conditions, and IN
the most largely bred fowl for farm
purposes.
With restricted freedom in limited
runs, on town lots or in city back
yards, the Barred Rock seems eouaIly
at home with these conditions, az
when on free range, aud pays a good
profit for Its keeping.

Plymouth Rocks the description IN
