nay '.hat both of us have enough to
start out In life; If not, we are dof.-c

lay that our Inheritance of reflex arcs
exceeds that of the chimpanzee by
several ounces of neurons. As a con
sequence, we have more nervous ma
chinery In general, naUre neurons to
load, more paths to carry the load.

Think of all the kinds of people you
know !
Man's Inherited habit to live can be
modified Into thousands of ways of IIv
Iiir. We do not Inherit habits of shav
Ink', wearing kimonos, three meuis a
day, plug hats, aUyscrupers, abhor
rence of pork, four wives, faith In Sun
day schools, or belief In higher edu
cation for women. We do Inherit par
ents who do not want us to dl.sxrace
them and who do their best to bring
us up In the way we ought to go.
Which ineiins that human Inheri
tance varies from ase to uge and cra
dle to cradle. Little the new-born
cares uhout a cllver spoon In his
mouth he Inherited the Imhlt of re
sponding to an empty stomach; or
w hether the rof over his head Is con-ix-r

To dcxcrlhe human adjustments In
terms of Instincts or analyze specific
human behavior or our own con
selonsnesa Into Instinctive acts, Is to
stir th mud. Human culture Is the
accumulated responses of the mau-un-Imal
to his man-made environment It
accumulates, It variex, became man
can and does talk. This seems a han
dicap at times, but In the long run It
has had Enormous consequences. With
out speech as iui organized tool of ex.
changing acquiring, and transmitting
experiences, human culture Is lncou
celvable.
Life learns. An nnuhn probably
learns new triel.s nt Inln rent In orig
Inal protoplasm, Man also nni-t learn
by experience.
We Inherit no nall-drlving habit.
We do not Inherit a motor mechanism
which feels good when functioning.
We took our tlrst lesson In driving a
nail when we hanged tiie rattle on
the side of the crib. Later, Mimull
of nails, hammer, soft pine, an en
vironment holding other stimuli to nc
tivlty; coiin'.h's rctlcx arcs, some nl
ready learned in responses to such
stimuli; thumb smashed, probably; but
the nail Is finally driven. And more
nails, and more, until finally the car
penter drives nails from force of hab
it like an Instinct.
It Is the first walk that Is the hard
est. The steps we acquire htter In
life are mere child's play compared
Willi the first step the child learns to
niuke. I'alanclng the body on one foot
on a wire rope Is only possible be
cause we learned first to balance the
body on a hall a half-Inch In diameter.
Po we learn these acts, or are they
Innate responses that appear In due
time? We know that the new born's
legs are not only weak, but are not yet
shaped for an upright gait, and that
Its spine hus not yet taken on human
curves; legs and spine grow human.
Several years elapse before they are
entirely human In character. lint they
are human enough to walk on within
twelve or fifteen months.
. The great, the essential, the refined,
the delicate movements are learned
within three years. That little" nie
chnnlsni grows tip with us. Through
out life we call upon It to run, to
swim, to climb,' to dance, to .'uttm, to
'hold em," to "knock 'em stl.T."

Cleanliness, but Hard
on Rest of the Outfit
After a 12-dny voyage we nrrii
at Ilrest, France, jn Julv. iis w
marched to the 1'ontannznn barracks
that afternoon. Our outfit was as
signed to two barracks, with a prom
Iso of a bath on Wednesday.
Water was very scarce there, and
At eacti emj of the barracks assigned
to us was a barrel of water for
drinking purposes.
I hnpirfmed to get ud about two
o'clock In the morning and leave the
narracKs. on my return I saw Mike
Connors In the barrel taking a hath,
I told him that he should have known
better, as the water was very scarce
there. He said he knew that, but he
really did need the bath and couldn't
wait any longer.
"We'll drink out of the other barrel
at the other end of the barracks,
then," I commented.
"I got my clothes in that one,"
Mike assured me.John J. Iioyle In

Belligerent Owl
A struggle between an owl and the
engineer of an electric express train
has been reported at Llnkoeping, In
southern Sweden. The bird, probably
attracted by the headlights of the lo
comotive, burst against one cab win
dow and broke the glass. Well In
side, It sank Its claws Into the shoul
ders of the rnotorrnan and attacked
him with Its bill The engineer could
not leave his grip on the switch, and
a fierce battle ensued while the train
raced on Its way. At last the motor
man succeeded In strangling the bird,
which was an Unusually large speci
men. Pianos to Fit He-rtes
In order to transport pianos over
mountain trails or difficult roads, an
enterprising German manufacturer
has constructed a special type of the
Instrument, which permits It to be
carried on horseback. The piano has
a U-shaped lower section which fits
the animal. Other pianos are made
demountable so that they can be
transported In several packing cases
on the backs of mules, and assembled
on delivery, because the Instrument
would be ruined were It to be hauled
over many of the trails for hours,
and often days. In a cart drawn by
cxen.
Soviet Selvage
The Soviet Union has been recov
ering from the bottom of the Black
sea the metal parts of warships and
merchantmen sunk at various places
within the last twenty years. One
harbor Is expected to yield thousands
of tons of useful metal
Biblical Picture His Fort
Ilofmann, who pointed the famous
Christ In the Temple," was a Ger
man, born at Darmstadt In 1821 lie
died In 1002. Ills pictures owe their
popularity to hta Illustrative talent
and Ideal conceptions of Biblical
vents.

chronic rush of words to the mouth.

Would you like to try
this doctor's laxative
free of charge?
Every familr has occasional need of a laxative,
but it should be a family laxative. One that can't
form a habit, but can be taken as often as needed.
When breath is bad or tongue coated. Or appetite
fails. Only a doctor knows the right ingredients.
Dr. Caldwell discovered the correct combination
years ago. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Tepsin combines
harmless herbs and pure senna. It starts muscular
action and soon corrects constipation. Gently, but
surely, it relieves a bilious or slupgish condition. It
is mild, Delicious. Effective. All druggists keep
