I have spoken before about tho

shape of a baby's chest, and that of ‘an adult. . ‘ A baby's chest is about as deep as it is wide," but if it developes properly it will gradually grow wide faster than it grows deep, so tilat in a man if the depth is 7 inches the width will be l0 inches; ill a woman it will be ‘l inches in depth to 0 inches in width.

Dr. K. Faber of Paris, now tells us how to get an idea of the size and position of the stomach, and here again a good width of body means

that the stomach will be up in its 'proper position. whereas narrowness may cause trouble. ‘

His method of estimating the posi- tion and probable size of the stoni- ach is very simple. l

You measure the distance, or draw a line from the lower tip of the breast bone to the naval. You then draw a line across the middle of this line, from the edge of the ribs on one side, to the edge of ribs on the other side.

If the width is the same distance as the length, then the proportion is thought to be ideal.

If the length is greater than the

It is quite truc that Premier Fer- guson was mentioned as one of many to whom the leadership of the Con- servative party might be offered; quite truc that, had he been elected he would in all probability have made a worthy successor to the great Conservative leaders who preceded him. But he was by -no means a last hope, by no means the only man in the Conservative party capable of filling the position. There are a dozen or more who may be relied upon, if chosen by their party, to honor the appointment. In fact, the principal difficulty the convention will meet with will bc to agree upon the best in a galaxy of good men.

Who are the Prohibitionists? Nat- urally they come from the ranks of both Liberals and Conservatives. A comparatively few Conservatives re- fused on principle to endorse Gov- ernment Control and either voted for the prohibition ticket or did not voto at all. A comparatively few Liberals acted similarly on principle. The great majority of the electors supported their respective parties, Government Control Liberals voted for Prohibition, not because they loved or believed in prohibition, but because it was the policy oi’ the Lic- eral party.

However another cause of "drop- ped stomach" that is frequently found. is due to a relaxed condition of the abdominal walls. They are so flabby that they permit all the ab- dominal organs, including the stom- ach, to drop downward to some ex- tent, and indigestion and constipa- tion ofton follow. There are excep- tions to this rule of course.

That children, boys and girls, be encouraged to play the games of childhood and youth, so that they will get width of chest, which is a great preventative of tuberculosis.

A few summers ago I spent a happy week at the famous Assembly Grounds on the borders of Chau- tauqua Lake. Thc llloment one treads that sacred enclosure, one feels onc‘s self ln an atmosphere of success. Sobriety and industry, in- telligence and goodness, orderliness and idcality, prosperity and cheer- fulness, pervade the air. It is a ser- ious and studious picnic on a gig- antic scalc. Herc you have a towli of many thousands of inhabitants, beautifully laid out in the forest and drained. and equipped with means for satisfying _all the necessary lower and most of the superfluous higher wants of man. You have a first- class college in full blast. You have magnificent music-w. chorus of sov- en hundred voices, with possibly the most perfect open-air auditorium in the world. You have every sort of athletic excl'cisc from smiling, row- ing, swimming. bicycling. to tile ball-field and the more artificial doings which the gymnasium afiords. You have kindergartens ltlld model secondary schools. You have general religious services and special club- houses for the several sects. You hdve perpetually running soda-water fountains, and daily popular lectures by distinguished men. You have the best of company, and yet no effort. You have no zymotlc diseases, no poverty, no_drunkenness, no crime. no police. You have culture, you have kindness, you have cheapness, you have equality, yoll have the best fruits of what mankind has fought and bled and strivcn for under the name of civilization for centuries. You have, in short, a foretasto of what human society might be. were it all in the light, with no suffering and no dark corners.
