WHY PEOPLE "BREAK DOWN.
Burden as General Thing Was Not
Too Heavy, but the Load Was
Put on Wrong Place.

People are breaking down In health
all the time. And as the business man,
the housewife and the student fall by
the roadside the public dolefully ex-
claims: '"The load was too heavyl"
AS matter of fact people break
down, not because the load they are
carrying is too great, for In nine cases
out of ten they could carry more than
they are asked to, but because they
don't know how to get the load on.
DR.. Joel E. Goldthwait writes In the
Designer. They put the pack on in
the wrong place and then the human
machine is used in such way that
great deal of their energy Is re-
Quired to overcome what would
mechanically be called friction.
When the nations young men and
women have been taught to use their
bodies correctly and are standing up
straight many Of the problems facing
the country today will have been
solved. There will be fewer instances
of breakdown In the mill and the
office and the home. People will carry
their loads easily. The development
Of their bodies will make 1t possible
for them to know the fullest JOY that
life can give.

Prehistoric Cemeteries.

Warren X. Moorehead, archeolOgist
of Phillips academy, AndOver, Mass,
has unearthed three cemeteries, 81
skeletons, % funeral urns and count
less small art objects of prehistoric
residents of that section in the Caho-
kia mounds near East st. Louis, Ill.
Professor MoOrehead is doing research
work under the direction Of the Uni
versity of Illinois.
This discovery tends to substantiate
the theory that the mounds are of hu-
man construction rather than natural
hills, it was said. At the base of one
mound large aftar was found, and
Professor Moorehead explained it was
customary for the mound builders"
in other sections Of the Mississippi
valley to cover over the affairs. after
they had served their usefulness. to
great heights-hence the mounds.
Indications of an effort to smelt
lead were found In one mound, the pro-
lessor explained. A smelter of baked
clay, in the form of a semi-eircle, was
discovered. and beside it chunks of
lead. Near it was vessel in the
shape of a modern chemists erucible.

Everybody hates a prof1teer," said
Secretary Hoover at a Washington
banquet, "and everybody knows where
the profiteer will go to when he dies.
"a millionaire profiteer was carried
off by indigestion, and his employees
attended the funeral in, a body. By
the terms Of the will the profiteer was
buried In strange manner. He wore
his newest frock coat, his largest dia-
mond ring and his costliest platinum
watch. Furthermore his best cane
was buried with him, and in his mouth
was his newest set of teeth, the set
with the gold plates.
"T understand all this business
said one of the dead profteers en-
ployees. It's for show. But ! can't
understand about the false teeth.
What's the sense of itT
""The sense Of it, said another EN-,
ployee, is easy to see. How would the
boss feel when he got to the Weepin'
and wailin' and gnashin' shop IL he
hadn't fine set Of teethY"

A RARE AND CURIOUS TREE.

A tree twenty-four times as broad
as high is to be found not many
miles from Philadelphia ON the
grounds of the Masonic Home in
Lancaster county. 1t is a member
of the juniper family, and is known
to foresters as the prone juniper be-
cause Of its peculiar growth. The
branches instead of radiating from
tall central trunk ramble about
over the ground, which they touch
at times, but in which they do not
take root.
This tree, which is often classed
as giant shrub, is said to be the
finest specimen of native prone
juniper in the United States, and is
the only one of it's kind in the coun-
try. 1t was discovered growing
wild on the grounds of the Masonic
Home and today is the special care
of the Boy Scouts of Elizabethtown,
who have adopted the big rambler.
The scouts have built a fence
around it to protect it from rowing
cattle.-Ex.

KNOW LITTLE ABOUT AMERICA
Traveller Tells Of Odd Beliefs That
Are Prevalent Among Even Well
Educated Europeans.

Austin Stack, minister Of home af-
fairs In the former cabinet of Eamonn
de Valera, tells Of some Of the curious
impressions regarding life In the
United States still prevailing among
Europeans. among other curious
beliefs is that every one who lives In
America, particularly in the Western
states, must be cowboy. find that
many people habitually refer to resi-
dents Of the Far West as cowboys In
figurative sense, and l suppose that
accounts for part of the notions that
are circulated"
Mr.. Stack recounted story told to
him by a friend from Butte, Mont,
who was entertaining a visitor from
Europe. The visitor expected to see
the streets of Butte built and peopled
along the lines shown in the erstwhile
popular western movie, and his lost
noticed that he seemed to be con-
stantly on the lookout for some one
or something.
Finally" Mr.. Stack said, 1.-THE Wis
itor turned to his host and asked:
But where are all the cowboysT
"'Oh, they are never seen in the
daytime the other replied. They
are very shy. They only come out at
nights, like the fairies.'"
And the visitor believed 1t, Mr..
Stack claims.

Naughty stare cowed Leopard.

A planter In Tanganyika Territory,
South Africa, walking along foot
path, fell into big game pit in which
a leopard had been trapped. Neither
the beast nor the man could get out
again, so the planter was "up against
it." but remembering what he had
heard of the power of the human eye,
he fixed the leopard with naughty
stare,
by this means and by making
strange noises, kept the animal at
bay until friend appeared and shot
It," he said.
Others who heard of the affair, and
who know the planter very well, point
out that he is lean and slender man,
not likely to attract leopard unless
the latter was indeed hungry to a
desperate point
