The reason why so many young girls of the present day are so sallow, under-sized, and ill-shaped, is for the want of air and exercise. After a time the want of air and exercise, by causing ill health, makes them slothful and indolent-it is a trouble for them to move from their chairs! Respiration, digestion, and a proper action of the bowels, imperatively demand fresh air and exercise.
I never saw a German prisoner who was except for the intervals when battle kept the food waiting at the rear away from his mouth, though some who were under-sized and ill-proportioned looked incapable of absorbing nutrition. In order to make them fight better they had been told that the British gave no quarter.
Stanton, who at this moment joined him, drew his special attention to a thin and under-sized gentleman somewhat past middle age, who mounted the steps with a tread that was as inelastic as his face was devoid of animation. "There is poor Uncle Mayhew," remarked the young man indifferently. "I suppose I must go and speak to him." "Mr. Mayhew?" said Van Berg, in some surprise.
Good evening, Hazeldine. You are the first to see us in our new quarters." Hazeldine bore traces of having lived from his childhood a hard but sedentary life. He was under-sized and narrow chested.
There was another man in the group an under-sized fellow, pale, emaciated, with big, troubled, and perplexed eyes. Sanderson saw that his hands were clenched, and that his thin lips were pressed so tightly together that they were blue and bloodless.
Yonder individual, who strolls about with his hands behind him, supporting his brown coat lappets, under-sized, and who looks anything but what he is, is the king of the light weights, so called Randall! the terrible Randall, who has Irish blood in his veins; not the better for that, nor the worse; and not far from him is his last antagonist, Ned Turner, who, though beaten by him, still thinks himself as good a man, in which he is, perhaps, right, for it was a near thing; and 'a better shentleman, in which he is quite right, for he is a Welshman.
This makes them endeavor to lay stress upon differences of rank. It is only the man whose intellect is clouded by his sexual impulses that could give the name of the fair sex to that under-sized, narrow-shouldered, broad-hipped, and short-legged race; for the whole beauty of the sex is bound up with this impulse.
It was that of a little man, very much under-sized, with a hunch back and a large, dark, melancholy face covered profusely with black hair. He wore corduroy trousers and clumsy boots his feet and hands were enormous together with a green coat and a red handkerchief which was carelessly twisted round his hairy throat.
And he was a great help, too. For some of the Indians were under-sized, and could not lift the heavy boxes and packages to the backs of the beasts of burden. But Koku, thrusting the little men aside, grasped with one hand what two of them had tried in vain to lift, and set it on the back of mule or llama. The way was rough but they took their time to it, for the trail was an ascending one.
It is a decisive proof of the excellence and heartiness of this choir, that the great organ has not lessened its effectiveness. It is not clear to the distant spectator by what aperture Mr. Beecher enters the church. He is suddenly discovered to be present, seated in his place on the platform, an under-sized gentleman in a black stock.
