How Sand 10 Travelling.

French biologists have long taken
interest In the eastward march OF the
sands along the northern coasts OF
France. Belgium and Holland, says
the Christian Science Monitor. A
fine sand originating on the shores of
Normandy has been found distributed
ON the beaches as far east as Den
mark. II was shown. after careful
investigation OF this phenomenon.
that the eastward march OF the sands
Is due TO the fact that all the sea
waves approaching the coast from
Brittany break I'm nearly parallel
lines. with an easterly motion. The
result Is that the sands always pro
gress In that direction. But the proc
ess Is slow and gradual. and measure
ments have proved that the sand
traverses. forward and backward
perpendicular to the shore, u total
distance 5000 times as great as that
which II covers. In the same length Of

Obesity Undesirable.

an undeniable association of obesity

alone more than half million dia-
betics. THE penalty Of taking too
much alcohol Is well known, and u
drunkard Is looked upon with pity or
contempt" says Doctor Joslin. Rare
ly, persons who become fat deserve
pity. because of a real tendency to put
on weight despite moderate eating. but
most of them should be placed In some

hole. In $50 cases out OF 1890 be-
