l so happened that i had to go to town last tuesday and there was no way of getting there except with the alelghs- as the weather became progrestvety worse i began to set cold feet about the trip but partner said dont worry about it 111 get you there all right so at ooethlrty partner went to hitchtip and then i was faced with the problem of fighting my way to the sleighs and believe me it was a problem people in town have no idea what it means to face the xtnrm in open country the short way u the sleighs was already cut off by huge snowdrifts so with a double blanket wrapped around me bead and all 1 stepped out the storm wsi terrible 1 couldnt get my breath nor see where i was going and the blanket started to slip i clutched it frantically without it my last hope would be gone by this time the sleighs seemed miles away and to finally roach them i must head into the storm across theu barnyard t couldnt do it so f headed fori the stable the blanket trailing partner was just bringing the horses out h into the stable he shouted as well as he could th bring the sleigh around eventually ue got away and once down the lane the wind was in our back which of course made all the difference but partner had hi own time coming back he said he made no attempt to drive as he could nt see where he was going anyway so tne horses went where they liked partner was supposed to come back for me around sixthirty but well i dont need to tell you the rest it wag fivethirty the next day beforo he was able to make the grade x was quite comfortable in townbut just about frantic at what might tw happchlng at home especially after partner had phoned that our water system at the barn had fromu solid i paraded the streets in town the next morning hoping to get a ride home but at that time hothlng was able to get through i even went and bought overalls for protection and tried to walk home but a little way out of town the hugo drifts turned me back so there was nothing to do but wait until partner could get through but even storms can raise a lough when partner was coming for me he found the milk still at the gate so he put the two cans on the sleighs with the idea of delivering them at the next farm where they be longed but when he saw the other road he changed his mind so the can were still with us when i was going home they were slipping about quite a bit so i did what i could to hold them and then as we skirted a snowbank away went one can stop i yelled with visions of my self drowned in milk stop the cans 9 going but partner went rirbr on driving let em go he said theyre frozen anyway and sure enough they were there were tho two cans rolling around in the slegh and not n drop of milk oozing out from cither or them it struck me ifl being really funny all the way along the road cars and trucks were stranded burled wheel deep in snow and many of them in outlying districts are there yet we are more fortunate than some as this lino has been opened up and since tho snowplough went through there has been one continual stream of sleighs and cutters with farmers get ting chop for their cattle and provis ions for the home one woman told me she never wanted to see a biscuit again they had lived on biscuits for three days after the bread supply gave out now the weather has moderated considerably and we are beginning to think about floods at least partner is i say sufficient unto the day well it was qute a storm while it lasted the nearest thing to western weather that 1 have seen since we left the prairie but there is one big dif ference out west we took such storms for granted and could always last out without too much inconveni ence for a week or even two weeks if necessary down here we have be- come accustomed to bread meat and groceries being delivered once or twice a week in the country and so bad weather is apt to catch us nap ping it was an adventure then ion with a eoa ranee in tb wt- dn and a potbemed affair la the tbn

jr in the military surgeon on the art of walking healthfully is quoted in the current issue of good health official organ of the race betterment foundation since the arrival of the bicycle and the more recent arrival of the automobile says tor hale the use of the legs has steadily diminished at the present time there is in use in the united states one automobile for every five or six persons pedestrians have practically disappeared front public highways except in towns and cities the feet of dvluzed man have long shown evidences of functional decay through the lack of use aa shown in the loss of a joint in the little toe diminishing size of the great toe the loss of prehensile power possessed by many primitive races and another deteriorating changes if the present trend con tinues man will ultimately become toeless aa well as toothless the doctor goes on to assert that walking is one of the best of all ex ercises the increase of professional and sedentary occupations seriously damages the health and efficiency of millions in modern highly civilized countries he says dr hale gives the following im portant in ab w tajp feet were meant to be used as propulsive levers not as pedestals the knees and big toes should be used in walking before the forward foot is placed on the ground the knee of the rear leg should be fully straight ened and the front part of this foot should give a shove to start it on the next step in standing the knees should be fully straightened so that the weight of the body la borne on the forward part of the foot when this is done the person leans slightly forward and must tense his abdom inal muscles a ultle to keep his bal ance one who walks on his heels holds himself perpendicular or leans backward to maintain hi- balance the result even in
