I Why It la an Eaaier Operation Than Bending Backward. Can you stoop and touch the floor with your lingers without bending your knees? Any child can do it, and any man or woman who has not grown stiff through lack of exercise ought to be able to do it. But no one except a contortionist can bend a3 far beckward as he ?an forward. The reason for this is threefold. The human body is so designed that bending is easiest in the direction in which it is most useful. We can see on the ground in front of us; we cannot see behind us. Our arms are placed so as to work in harmony with our eyes, ahead of us, ? * 1*3 TTT i 1. ?:.t. nox Denina us. vve want to uy things we can see. Therefore it is a wise provision that enables us to keep our balance when leaning forward more easily than when leaning backward. The weight of our bodies rests normally upon our heels, and our feet extend forward to take up our weight when we stoop. Again, the muscles of our bodies are massed where they will give us most power. The biggest and strongest groups of muscles are on our backs and the backs of our legs. When we lift any weight it is this great chain of muscles that extends from the heel in successive links to the base of the skull that gives us the power. These muscles, when relaxed, are capable of great extension, in order that we may be able to bend far forward. In tension they hold us erect. The muscles on the front of our body, with the exception of that tremendously powerful ligament in front of the hip joint, are comparatively thin and weak. If we bend far backward they are not strong enough to pull us up again. The only parts of the spine that are capable of much backward bending are at the neck and waist. But at the waist the spines on the back of the vertebrae are so large and thick that when we bend backward they comfr together and prevent us from going any further. Then that powerful ligament in front of the hip joint is there for the express purpose of preventing us from falling backward, and it is not capable of much stretdning. All these structural and mechanical details explain why we cannot bend nearly so far backward as forward. Onr bodies are designed for stooping forward and were never meant for backward bending, which would, anyway, be of no use. ?New York Press. Gratitud* Bahind a Nam*. During 1608 Sir Christopher Newport while cruising off the coast of North Carolina ran into a very severe storm. After being tossed about on the ocean for several days his ship was driven by the wind into Chesapeake bay and landed at a certain "point." Exhausted by his ? i .V L - t A struggle wim me ocean ue iuuuu "comfort at last within this harbor" and he gave it the name of "Point Comfort." After some years other places along the Atlantic seaboard were given the same name, and as the Virginia point was the oldest the word "Old" was added to distinguish it from the others.?Ladies' Home Journal. Jumped a Thousand Hurdles. The craze for strange records began a great many years ago. There was an elderly London omnibus driver Darned Priestly, who at Hull, in 1863, jumped 1,000 hurdles each three feet six inches high in sixtyone and a half minutes. It is said that this record nas never since been equaled. Priestly began omnibus driving in the same year, 1863, and during his forty-air years in the service of the London General Omnibus company he drove busses a distance of about 850,000 miles.? Strand Magazine. Discouraging. Mr. Jordan was touring by motorcar and arrived at a crowded village inn quite late in the evening. There was no spare bed to be had, which was a great disappointment, as he was tired and very much disliked the thought of driving farther that night. "Haven't you at least a bundle of hay you can give me ?" he demanded of the landlady. "There isn't a thing left," she answered, "except a bit of cold roast beef."?Lippincottfs. Gladstone's Apology. Mr. Gladstone once denounced certain members of the opposition as "a lot of truckling attorneys," a phrase which caused some indignation. On the following day he Mid: "I recently described same members as truckling attorney*' I now wish to apologize"?some applause from the aggrieved parties interrupted him?"I now wish to apologize?to the attorneys.* Old People Nee AB The Ideal One is a Mild Laxative Tonic that Will Keep the Bowels Gently Active Healthy old age is so absolutely dependent upon the condition of the bowels that great care should be taken to see that they act regularly, The fact is that as age advances the stomach muscles become weak and inactive and the liver does not store up the juices that are necessary to prompt digestion. Some help can be obtained by eating easily digested foods and by plenty of exercise, but this latter is irksome to most elderly people. One thiru' is certain, that a state of constip*ion should always be avoided, as it is dangerous Id life and health. The best plan is to take a mild laxative as often as is deemed necessary. But with equal certainty it is suggested that cathartics, purgatives, physics, salts and pills be avoided, as they do but temporary good and are so harsh as to be a shock to a delicate system. A much better plan and one that thousands of elderly people are following, is to take a gentle laxativetonic like Dr Caldwell's Syrup PepAS HAAwltf lil/A naiiivn 9iu, wuiv^ii acvo oo ucaiijr imc uctotuv, as is possible. In fact the tendency of this remedy is to strengthen the stomach and bowel muscles and so train them to act naturally again, when medicines of all kinds can usually be dispensed with. This is the opinion of many people of different ages, among them Mrs Mary A P Davidson, of University Mound 1 J0HNS8NV1LLE HIGS SCHOOL j (Received too late for last week's issue). Johnsonville, October 30: ? We have| begun our routine of school work again and the whole school is progressing nicely. All in general seem to be in a school spirit and we are looking forward to the most successful year's work that has ever been accomplished at old John sonville. The school has the largest enrollment that has ever been known, there- being two hundred pupils upon the roll, forty-two of whom are in the high school. We have been hard at work for three weeks. No time was delayed, because the former teachers returned and know how things run and just where the children stood in their work. Teachers and pupils are mutually interested in the work and where the majority pulls together there is bound to be success. Every class's motto seems to be: "Press upward and onward; 'tis the only road to success." There is a large - ' ? ? J mA /J r?rvV Class 10 gruuuaic BUU IVC u\j uui lu" tend to fall below the standard of the preceding graduates if hard work and perseverance can prevent it. We hope, if anything, to raise it. In proportion to the large number of pupils there is a good-sized, progressing music class, the largest since the school was established. The number is thirty-seven, three of whom are boys. Miss Hutson is planning to have three recitals, which are going to be excellent and are being looked forward to with pleasant anticipation not only by the music pupils and school children, but the public in general. Elocution has been added to the course and is taught by Miss Willie Elom of Virginia. She is doing nicely and every one is looking forward to good results. This branch is going to add much to the school. The Excelsior literary society met Friday afternoon of the first week ^ a At. _ i? A and elected omcers ior me nrsi three months of school as follows: Davis Newell, president; Christine Newell, secretary and treasurer; Elizabeth Cannon, corresponding secretary; Roena Eaddy, first censor, Eunice Venters, second censor; Thora Davis, first critic; Leah Eaddy, second critic. After some good advice by the principal and a beneficial talk by the president the society adjourned. Interesting programmes have been carried out at every meeting, which I one Friday comprises essays, declamation, readings, current events and music, and next, debates, current events and music. The society is expecting to accomplish much, because we have a president that every member of the society feels will do a good part. Then, too, every member seems to be working for the good of the society. When different members are put on duty they always try to do their best to make the programmes as interesting as possible. The patrons and friends of the school seem to be very much interested in the society and what we are doing, for they frequently pay us visits, which are appreciated very much by every member. Because of the large enrollment another society has been added and jfeL. itt :d x owel Stimulant . v Mrs Mary A P Davidson. ? Hpme, San Francisco, Cal. She is 71 and because of her sedentary habits had continual bowel trouble. From the day she began taking Dr Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin she has had no further inconvenience and naturally she is glad to say kind things of this remedy. A bottle can be bought of any druggist at fifty cents or one dollar. People usually buy the fifty cent size first, and then, having convinced themselves of its merits, they buy the dollar size, which is more economical. Results are always guaranteed or money will be refunded. Elderly people of both sexes can fo4 low tnese suggesuuua wiua c*w| assurance of good results.
