WESTON TRAINING TO WALK.
“There is no great secret in this bus-
iness,” he said, “so far as I am con-
, corned. The old army regulations rec-
ognized fifteen miles as good average,
every-day marching. When pressed,
an army will march from twenty to
thirty miles a day for one or two days,
and a small detachment, specially pre-
pared, will sometimes do even even
better than that for a single day. But
there is not one man in a thousand
who can start off in his normal condi-
tion, without training or preparation,
and walk fifty miles in twenty~four
hours. So, when a. man has a tramp
of a hundred or more miles before him
to be covered within the limits of a
day, careful training is a necessary
prerequisite.
This training consists not merely in
getting the system in perfect condition
through proper diet, exercise, sleep and
mental control, but, more than all, the
feet (which alone bear the body on the
long journey) must be carefully looked
after. Ten miles of continuous walk-
ing will pretty effectually use up the
average feet accustomed only to the or-
dinary tasks of every-day life, and
when one’s feet are well blistered
walking becomes un-endurable torture.
It is therefore absolutely necessary, as
a preliminary,that the feet be tough-
ened. Use themuntil blistered, and
then let the water out with a needle
and pickle them. This removes the
fever. Thus callousness will be in-
duced on the tender parts formerly
disposed to blister. By persistence
the feet will become thoroughly cal-
loused before the great effort is under-
taken, and no serious trouble need to
be apprehended from that source.
In my training, as 'well as when
walking, I rigidly eschew all alcoholic
stimulants and tobacco as well. The
effect of stimulants may be advanta-
geous temporarily, but that is of short
duration, giving place to greater weak-
ness and lassitude as soon as the al-
cohol has done its temporary work.
To rely on such artificial stimulants
calls for the use of increased quanti-
ties at shorter intervals, until the
brain becomes muddled and one is ren-
dered incapable of giving that calm at-
tention to his work that is essential
to success. A clear head, next to prop-
erly prepared. feet, is a most important
requisite in any attempt at great phy-
sical exertion.
As to food, for four weeks before a
trial I confine myself to a diet of rare
beefsteak. eggs and mutton chops,
with. plain vegetables and rice pud-
ding. Tea, coffee, milk and water are
iny‘only. beverages. Thus I seek to
thoroughly nourish the body, avoiding
whatever may tend to excite the ner-
vous system, impair the digestive or-
gans or weaken the stomach. The ob-
ject sought is to produce the least pos-
sible fatty growth, to harden and
strengthen the muscles, to induce per-
fect action of all the functions and es-
tablish the most substantial condition
of general health, both physical and
mental.
The Worm Turned. I
A fastidious lawyer. had under cross-
examination a simple-looking youth,
who rejoiced in the name of Sampson,
and resolved to raise a laugh at his ex-
pense.
“And so,” questioned the legal light.
“S'hu wish the court to believe that
you are a peaceably disposed and in-
ofi'cnsivc kind of person?”
“YES.” .
“And you have no desire to follow
in the footsteps of your illustrious
namesake and smite the Philistines?"
“No; I’ve. not,” answered'the wit-
ness. “And if I had the desire I ain't
got the power, just at present.”
“Then you think you would be un- _
able to rout a thousand enemies with '
the jawbone of an ass?”
“well,” answered the ruffled Samp-
son, “I might have a try at them when
you are done, but I’ll be teetotally
swamped if I’d want to use your jaw."
