they relieve some of the discomforts Of
the erect position and save the drag Of the
,bdominal contents on the lower part of
the spine by transferring it directly from
the upper part of the body to the pelvis.
Scoliosis, or curvature of the spine, is
common in man and scarcely known In
the animals, because when a slight devia.
tion occurs owing to occupation or illness
It Is aggravated by the weight and the
erect posture.
The doctor particularly recommends fre.
quent exercises in the all-fours position to
remedy curvature of the spine.
The joints Of the backbone are rendered
very liable to disease owing to the pres
sure caused by the upright position.
Spinal disease is very common In the
neck joints OF children, because germs
from the throat drain back into them,

brain. and this explains why soldiers
nurses and others who have been standing
. long time so frequently faint. Paralytc
stroke, or cerebral hemorrhage, Is largely
due to the great variation In pressure oh
the human brain arteries
The distressing conditions that anect
the legs and feet of vigorous persons must
be attributed largely to the strain OF the
erect position Vsricose veins are almost
entirely due to this position. Even corns
are mainly traceable to 1t.
Women suffer more than men as re-
suit of the erect position. Their muscles
are weaker and hence the strain of the
downward drag Of the tissues affects them
more. They wear high-heeled boots to
save their calf muscles and corsets to sup
port the faccid abdominal muscles and
the spine. But they cannot wholly over.

The Washington times., 1922-04-02

capacity leads to poor circulation In the
mucous surfaces Of the nose and throat,
and thus catarrh is set up even In the
youngest children. This is the direct
cause Of adenoids.
Mastoiditis. the jaw disease now so com.
mon among children, Is attributed 20 the
same cause, as the mastoid cavity has it's
outlet raised up In human beings instead
OF lying so that it's contents can run out.
The sinuses. or bony holfows Of the
face, are all raised by the erect posture so
that infected matter which collects In
them does not drain out, as il would In
quadrupeds. That is why man suffers so
much from sinus disease.
The origin Of splitting in man 10 the
erect posture. The lower animals do not
require to spit, because saliva and secre-
tions do not accumulate in such large
quantities In their mouths and throats, and
what there 10 escapes by evaporation.
DR.. Thompson holds that one Of the
many reasons why mems teeth decay more
than those Of animals lies in the erect
posture. The primary cause OF the decay
is that our teeth are not as freely washed
by saliva as those Of the animals standing
on all fours.
Germs from the bad teeth and from the
inhamed tonsils and adenotds caused by
the erect posture, as already explained,
drain into the lungs and stomach, cause
rheumatism and other diseases and affect
The whole system. The dog, and other
quadrupeds escape most Of these germ
troubles because the dangerous germs are
not so completely bottled up IN the body.
In the quadruped the heart and lungs
rest upon the breastbone and portions OF
the ribs, so that the chest 10 strengthened
against atmospheric pressure at its weak
est points. In man the heart and lungs
rest mainly on the diaphragm and to some
extent swing from the hbrous tissue at
tsched to the backbone. This gives rise 10
fat chest and hollow chest.
Man is much more subject to pneumonia
and pleurisy than the animals. HE up-
tight position renders II difficult to sxpel
mncus and other secretions from he
tubes. The human cough is a peculiarly
distressing affection.
Infections in the larynx drift into the
lungs In the erect position and then they
pass TO the base Of the lungs, where they
do the greatest injury,
The marvellous rn~ninc performances
OF the dog. the deer and Other snimals are
made possible by the arrangement OF thsir

Walking and running In the upright pos
ture put a great strain on all the bones

the lower limbs. The jar of suddenly

spine to the base Of the skull, leading to
a greater likelihood Of injury to the bones,
to fracture of the spine and concussion OF
the brain than In the quadruped position.

The difficulty OF holding the
