The same condition in man produces the enormous heavily boned circus giant. Dr. Charles Rupert Stockard of Cornell University Medical College experimented with some of these pure blooded deformities.

The pronunciation of such words as "eyewallah", "istagfarrulah", "marshalla", and "saleikum" puzzled the play-producers and began to loom up as an unsurmountable obstacle, until the bio-linguist Boonisar was discovered. He came to the aid of the perplexed actors, and for the past week has been drilling the cast of "Hassan" it the intricacies of oriental speech...
