(By Dispatch A. p. Wire)

LONDON, July 24.-Few women
have straight knees, says the emil
nent surgeon Sir William Arbuthrot
Lane who is making a campaign for
the greater use of simple foods in
an endeavor to build up the consti-
tutions of males and females.
"We always have known that very
few men have perfectly straight
normal legs and knees" says Sir
William. "And now that women
wear such short skirts any one VIII"
takes the trouble to make an OBJ
servation when the winds are whist
ling through the streets of London,
will ascertain that very few women
have straight knees. 1t is all due
to early disease caused by bad feed
ing"
Sir William says the man in the
African jungle who is called by the
white people "a poor benighted say
age,p is far superior physically to
the white man. ga Zulu warrio"
