dangerous old fellow to monkey
with, under any circumstances.
This is shown in another instance
when Director Hines notified the
strikers at Los Angeles that the
government is going to operate
trains there no matter whether
they return to work or not, and
gave them until 7 o'clock this
morning to get on the job again.
This thing of government owner
ship and control may have a lot
of features that most of us do
not like, but if Uncle Sans
mailed fist can handle unreason-
able strikers and keep transpor-
tation going and business from
being blocked, there may be a
whole lot of good in it that many
of us have overlooked.

There are, according to this way of con.

measurement from the sitting point to the
top Of the head.
In summarizing his results the professor
says:

that vital capacity is greatest in the small

The stem length in individuals OF the

means that the men with the lesser stem
length must have big, long legs to make
the weight equal Such men have less
body surface and less vital capacity than
those with greater stem length ana less

Professor Drcycr's experiments show
that the upper classes of Englishmen Of
the present day rank much higher in ply
steal fitness than the same classes did in
DR.. lIutchinson's timc-about 1Si5. The
same change probably holds true In other
countries and is due TO the improved
habits OF good society

in connection with these experiments 1t
is interesting to recall the studies on the
different types OF men which were recently
made by the French scientists, Professor
a. Chailou. OF the Pasteur Institute. OF
Paris, and Professor Leon Macaulre, of
the Paris School OF Higher Medical
Studies
These scientists found that mankind
generally was divided into four tvpes:
] Tho muscular type. .. The digestive
type 3. Tho respiratory type. T. The
cerebral type
In the muscular and digestive types it is
easy TO recognize the men with large
bodies and short legs, who have been
found by Professor Dreyer to possess the
greatest vitality. In the diagrams fur
nished by the French scientists these two
types are seen to possess relatively short
or legs than the other two
The muscular is the ideal type, with
symmetrical framework, good muscles and
small stomach. His legs are less than his
stem length He is fit for every form Of
eNertion. and his prospects OF life are good
because he does not eat excessively
the digestive type Is distinguished by
heaVy Jaws and breadth across the hips
re Is STRONG, Dut much slower than the
muscular type. He requires a great deal
OF food and grows fat. Owing to his inor.
dinate appetite he is subject to digestive
troubles and other diseases Many of the
strongest men belong to q mixed musculo-
digestive type.
The respiratory type OF man Is tall and
IS distinguished by n slender figure and
LEGS longer than his stem length. He
shows marked development In the upper
part of the chest, due 10 large lungs. His
health is delicate, and he breaks down un-
ner severe labor, He makes q good ath-
lete, cavalryman or aviator
The cerebral type of man has n largo

and nervous system In spite OF his de-
fcctive development he has, as a rule.

moderation in eating.

the manifestations are due to the
