THAT BODY OF YOURS
BY JAMES w. BARTON, NJ. d.

quickly the heart can adjust itself to
conditions of work. Holding the body
in the air to the height of the chin, in
this way, means that muscles of arms
(mostly) are holding $50 pounds, more
or less, for several seconds, considera-
BILE amount of work. A normal heart,
68 to 70 beats to the minute, would
thus go up to 80 beats minute to do
this work, remain there for few sec
onds, and yet within a space of IL to
16 seconds. it is back to its normal rate
of 68 to 72
DR.. w R. Miles, San Francisco, who
conducted the experiment states that
the rate of increase during exercise, and
the length of time required for the
heart to come back to normal after
exercise was practically the same in all
the young men in the group.
Now some of these young men had
hearts little slower than 72, some Just
70, and some faster than 70, yet the
rate of increase in beats during exer-
else (25 per cent? and the length of
time taken to get back to normal II
to 16 seconds, was the same in all cases
What is the thought? That it is
natural for some to have slow heart
and others fast heart, and yet the
heart itself is perfectly sound, and re-
acts to exercise just the same as heart
beating 70 to the minute, the rate con-
sidered normal.
Further, Notwithstanding that your
thoughts, your emotions, food and
stimulants all affect the heart rate,

He waited until Johnny had disap-
peared under the fence around the
garden and then, first making sure
that the way was safe, he followed. He
felt very brave and a little excited.
1t was his first venture so far from the
old stonewall He felt that now, in
deed, he was out in the Great World.
He slipped under the fence and there
before him was Farmer Browns garden
with a lot of plants wholly strange to
him. He looked for Johnny Chuck but
the latter was nowhere to be seen.
You see he was in among the bean
plants and hidden by them. Young
Chucky didn't forget to look for dan
ger. There was none and he stole over
to the nearest plant, which happened
to be a bean plant He nibbled a leaf.
MY, my, how good it tasted! 1t was bet
ter than tender grass. 1t was better
than sweet clover. Anyway, it seemed
so then.
'I must get all I can while I can,"
thought Chucky. MY, I'm glad I
came over here! I'll do it often here
after"
At first he remembered to keep sit
ting up for a look around. But after
a while he forgot. You see he was so
intent on filling his stomach with
and 1t was so quiet and peaceful there.
that he grew careless. He forgot, and
forgetting is one way of being care
less. If people never forgot there
would be a great deal less careleSsneSS
and ever and ever so much less trou-
BILE and suffering in the Great World.
So it was that he didn't suspect the
presence of anyone else in the garden
until from the other end of the bean
patch, Johnny Chuck's alarm whistle
sounded. Instantly Chucky sat up for
a look around. He saw no one but his
father, also sitting up at distance
and looking intently in a certain di-
rection. Chucky looked that way. too,
and could see nothing because of the
tall plants. Johnny Chuck whistled
again and this time Chuckv waited no
longer; he started for the old stonewall
as fast as his rather short legs could
take him. He wasn't more than a
third of the way there when glancing
back he saw someone in red coat
leap out from under that fence and
start after him.

The girls built the fire. cut the long
slender twigs and split the buns.
They were having potatoes baked ir
the embers of the fire, which had beer
built almost as soon as they reached
the grounds. Later this fire was re-
plenished with quick-burning fuels fol
the Wieners.
With the potatoes roasted in the
ashes and eaten with salt, and with q
great appetite there was large supply
of wieners and buns.
OF course there were olives and pickles
The salad was a triumph of Judith'S
own invention. She had peeled small
tomatoes, followed them, put in a salad

each stuffed tomato separately in ont

Why BRAN Is SO
GOOD FOR HEALTH
KelloRg's ALB AN Has
Bulk" and Vitamin B;
Also Healthful Iron.

BY using Kellogg's All-Bran, mil
lions of people have overcome COM
mon constipation, and the headaches,
loss of appetite and energy that so
frequently result.
New laboratory tests show ALL
Bran supplies two things needed to
overcome temporary and recurring
constipation: Bulk" to exercise the
intestineS. Vitamin B to help tone
the intestinal tract.
The bulk" in All-Bran is much
like that of lettuce. Within the
body, it forms a soft mass. Gently
it clears the intestines of wastes.
Further experiments prove ALL
Bran provides twice as much blood
building iron as an equal amount
by weight Of beef liver.
Eat this delicious cereal and avoid
pills and drugs. They cause artifi-
cial action, and often lead to harm
full habits.
Try two tablespoonfuls of Kel-
logg's All-Bran daily - sufficient to
overcome most types Of constipation.
If your intestinal trouble is not re-
lieved this way, see your doctor.
All-Bran has a delicious, nut-sweet
flavor. Enjoy as cereal with milk
or cream, or use in making fluffy
bran mullins, breads, omelets, etc.

Adventure of the Sea.
THREE HORNS"

~ URING the sea voyage, Capt
Thompson and First Mate
Brown had been in command:
~ but on the island, in the midst
of the bones, DR.. Barstow and
Mr.. Weston had charge. They had
studied such bones as these and knew
how to take care Of them.
Most of the bones were embedded in
rock and earth.
Long ago" said Dr. Barstow, "this
must have been Swampy region, per-
| that time. I have no doubt, the island
was joined by land to the coast of
! Africa. The dinosaurs whose bones We
find here must have died when they
i sank into the SwampS or into the soft
ooze beneath the ponds"
IF those animals sank into ooze O.
| soft ground, how does it happen that
we find some of their bones in the midst
| of rock?" asked Roberta.
That's a good question" said DR..
Barstow with a smile. THE answer is
that the mud became dry and turned
into rock. That happened during the
course of many thousands OF years"
Were all the rocks made that way?'
ooh, no! Some we're made by vol
canoes, and others were made by sand
which hardened into sandstone. The
rock called limestone was made by mil
lions of shells and bones which were
ptessed together by nature"
Just then Allen caught sight Of a
great skull, and shouted, "Look!"
1t was the skull of a dinosaur. DR.
] Barstow touched the skull, and re-
marked:
| This belongs to a dinosaur which
we call 'Triceratops' or Three Horns.
This fellow grew to a length Of about
25 feet. Other dinosaurs were much
longer, but this fellow was thick and
heavy. His head, as well as his body,
was thick"
WAS he dangerous?" asked Allen.
| "Well. he would not have made a
/ gentle pet Those horns could dc
plenty of damage when the animal was
on a charge Imagine half a dozen
modern rhinos rolled into one, and you
will have an idea of this animal in
real life"
MY, but he had big head" ex-
claimed Allen. II suppose he was very
smart"

MY Rights.
III A IL want is my rights. I'm
80 " not asking father and mother
"A for anything else. have
4 L a right to do what I want
to do. I have to live my
own life, don't ~"
So often 1 hear that. Only a very
young person can speak that way. The
older ones know that rights are barren
things, given to laughing in ones be-
wildered face. Rights are the husks OF
! life. There Is no sustaining nourlsh-
ment in them.
| The adoleScent who reSentS his par
ents' control shouts for his rights. He
wants to marry the wrong girl. That
she is the wrong girl is clear to every
one but himself Il have the right to
marry whom 1 please" he yells in
voice he longs to believe is thunder.
That is true. He has the right to
marry whom he ,pleases and the only
| reason his people interfere ever so
mildly is the fact that he is unable to
carry the responsibility that he Is
shouldering so aggresSively. II he
could go his way free of his family ties
free of any need of them, all would be
well. But he needs his father and his
mother and his relatives. He can no
more live happily without their sup
| porting influence than he can fly. To-
! day he throws them off in childish rage,
but tomorrow he will return to them IN
! childish helplessness. His rights will
! not sustain him.
The girl who announces that she has
| the right to live her own life usually
means that she wants to have the ap-
proval of her people for doing some
thing utterly wrong headed and child
ishly adolescent. She wants to leave
home so she can be free Of fam
lily supervision. Why? She wants the
company of young people who defy the
conventions, who keep late hours, WhC
laugh at responsibility. She wants to
keep one foot on the safe home base
and the other in the questionable re-
gions of adventure. She has right to
her life, that is true, but she hasn't
the right to mar other lives.
How far will rights carry you? Only
far enough to meet yourself coming
back. Only far enough to allow you
to trample on your own toes. II your
people stood upon their rights, where
would yours be, young Highly Tightly?
A young man earned considerable
money during the year and became en-
rsged because his mother insisted upon
his accounting for it. Its my own
money. I have right to do with it
as please, haven't II"
Surely. Everybody has that right,
but few of us exercise it. If you insist
upon it, of course you can, but in that
case I shall ask you to respect your
fathers rights as well. Here is bill

You can't spend your fathers money
while you use your own for fun"
That bill, item after item set down
with scrupulous care. was shock. II
called for more than the boy earned.

rights had been freely given him. He
had been accepting privileges and de-
manding rights and the two never go
well together.
Don't ask for your rights, my chill
dren. You might get them and you
would not like them half as much as
you think. They are starvation diet

Dear Mrs. Post: Should lady wear
her hat when going into dining car
