A POOR CROP OF LEGS.
Baggy Troußers Hide a Multitude Of
Defects.
From the Philadelphia Record.
“What a blessing is the baggy- trouser
fashiou to the youth of shapeless limbs!”
exclaimed a Walnut street tailor a few days
ago, ns he dismissed a loan, angular, eye
glassed young mau whom he had just meas
ured for a nobby winter suit. “There is
nothing instrisically beautiful in a modern
pair of trousers; in fact It is only oustom
that prevents our proclaiming the panta
loon of to-day as fit only for tne companion
ship of a clown. But for all that these big
wobbling trousers perform a noble mission.
They servo to completely bury the spindly
shanks of America’s dudes. These were
shown up wretchedly enough a few years
ago when tight limb coverings were the
style. What would be the dire result if the
threatened kuickerbocker regime should
suddenly bear down upon us) There’s no
use in trying to fatten a lean oalf, and the
slim-legged dude knows it to his sorrow.
He would have no other course than suicide
in such an event.
A POOR CROP OF LEGS NOWADAYS.
“There’s been a sad falling off of good
legs iu late years,” continued the wielder of
the needle and goose. “Why, some of my
customers a generation back had figures
that made me yearn to dress 'em up iu
small clothes. But I don’t do much yearn
ing nowadays. Among my regular patrons
I can scarcely count a dozen who possess
really graceful legs. If my subject is of
the dudiue species the lines of his limbs are
apt to possess the graceful curves of a
broom stick, or if ho be of a muscular type
they are knotted aud gnarled like the trunk
of a walnut tree. It makes me heartsick to
receive an order for an ißithetic tennis suit
from men of either class—it seems like suoh
a wanton unmasking of one’s deformity.!’
BLAMES IT ON BICYCLES.
A professor of anatomy in a leading medi
cal college smiled iucreduously when the
problem of man’s deteriorating leg, as sug
gested by the tailor, was propounded to
But after a moment’s reflection he
admitted the accuracy of the premise.
"Tbia is au age of bicycle riding,” he said,
“and for that reason it is an age of gro
tesquely abnormal development. Many of
the men who can spin along on the wheel
are of a puny, tcraggy shape, as far down
as the waist, while their hips and calves
are of prodigious breadth and
corresponding shapelessness. Twenty
five years hence a< a result of
the growth of the cycling habit and the
heritage of wheel-riding parents, the typi
cal American will consist of a Lilliputian
body resting on a pair of Gulliver’s legs.
Bicycle riding is excellent for the muscles
but it is fatal to grace and beauty of limb.
It tends to convert a gentle and altogether
harmless calf into a mighty, muscular bul
lock. An ill-formed youth who desires to
become an Apollo can't attain his end
thr .ugh physical training. This will
strengthen, but not beautify. He has only
one hope, aud that lies in—padding.”
A REMKLA Lies IX PADDING.
“It is idle to deplore the deterioration of
the;lower limb.' said another physician
who has made a life-long study of the hu
man frame. “Nineteenth century fashion
ables could inaugurate a kmckerboelrer or
doublet and hose era with quite as much
propriety aa their ancestors. YVell-rounded
limbs are not abundant now, but neither
were they in the old days. Why,
nine-tenths of Queen Bess’ grandee*
had padded caives, I warrant, and
in a Later age I don’t at all believe that
truthful George Washington and philoso
phical Ben Franklin hesitated to fatten
tneir calves with artificial fodder. The
bland and smiling noblemen of a past age,
as we can see them depicted in old paintings
and prints, are Invariably endowed with
the sleekest, smoothest and most neatly
turned legs that the mind can conceive.
But in nearly everv case they are impossi
ble legs. If Lord Raieigb, for instance, pos
sessed the pair of limbs with which bis
portraits credit him he must have been feeble
and weak-kneed to a degree. For while his
knees may appear soft aud round and beau
tiful from an artistic standpoint, to an
anatomist they are only ludicrous. They
could Dover in the world serve a* continual
props for a sturdy body. Tne old masters
were impelled to provide their subjects
with ornately modeled legs for the purpose
of flattery. Their subtle brush could easily
convert a walking-stick into a gently
undulating piece of stockinged flesh, and
hence we never see a poor leg in their pro
ductions. Had there been instantaneous
photographers in those days their pictures
would have told a very different tale.
NO OCCASION FOR KNVY.
It’s bnite unnecessary to envy our ances
tors. Their gilded youth must have had
the same heartburnings over their
misshapes calves as worry this nine
teenth century successors. But with them,
as with us, the eternal panacea lay in pad
ding. By this means a gaunt conglomeration
of skin and bone was molded into perfect
form, and in this inventive age there is still
greater hope for the scrawny-legged disci
ple of fashion.”
THE ORIGIN OF “HURRAH.”
A British Authority Bays that the Cry
Springs from the German.
From Public Opinion.
Writing to the Timea, with reference to
the remark of iti Berlin correspondent that
the exclamation “Hurrah!” “is said to be
of Slavonic origin,” Dr. C. A. Buchheimof
King’s college, London, says: “I presume
your correspondent must have some
authority for this assertion; but I hope yon
will allow me to point out that, as far as 1
know, the word is of purely German origin.
It is generally assumed to be derived from
the imitative interjection hurr, describing
a rapid movement, from which word the
middle High-German hurren, ‘to move
rapidly,’ or rather to hurry, has been
formed. Hurrah is, therefore, nothing else
but an enlarged form of hurr, and, as I
said, of purely Teutonic origin. In Grimm’s
‘Worterbuch’ we find the interjection quoted
from a Minnesinger. It also occurs
in Danish and Swedish; and it would be in
teresting to know when it was first intro
duced In this country in the Anglicised
form of ‘hurry.’ In Germany it was fre
quently used during the Napoleonic wars
by the Prussian soldiers, aud it also occurs
in some political and martial songs of those
days. Since then it seems to have been
adopted also by other nations, even by the
French in the form of honrra. That the
interjection did not become so popular in
Germany as a cheer at eouvivol gatherings
as in this country is probably owing to the
circumstances that preference was given
there to the brief exclamation ‘Hoeta!’ form
ing respectively the end and beginning of
the phrases ‘Er lebe hocli’ and ‘Hoeh soil er
leben.’ Of late the word hurrah seems to
have become rather popular in Germany.
It is just possible that the English reim
ports it there or that it was revived
through the magnificent poem of ‘Hurrah,
Germania!’ written by the poet laure
ate ot German people, Ferdinand Freli
grath.”

Boy Covered with Scabs
My boy, aged nine years, has been troubled
all his life with a very bad humor, wnieh ap
peared all over his body In small red blotches,
with a dry white scab on them. Last year ho
was worse than ever, being covered with scabs
from the top of hie head to his feet, and con
tinually growing worse, although he had been
treated by two physicians. Asa last resort I
determined to try the Cuticura Remedies, and
am happy to say they did all that I could wish.
Using them according to directions, the humor
rapidly disappeared, leaving the skin fair and
smooth, and performing a thorough cure. The
Cuticura Remedies are all yon claim for them.
They are worth their weight in gold to any one
troubled as my boy was.
