1t may be safely stated that the attempt of few
weak kneed Brooklyn savings banks to bring about
cooperative movement with New York banks in favor
Of reduction Of the OF interest from six to i've
per cent has properly and most lamentaDy failed.

tunate colapses in New York savings banks

Bathing in the Dead Sea.

all the seas and lakes on our globe, we pre-
pared to take a bath-and such bath I
can hardly expect ever to take again.
had previously bathed in numerous seae,
lakes, and rivers. but never did l enioy
such bath as this. The specific gravity Of
the water is such from its holding in solu-
ton 90 large proportion of salt-twenty-
six and One-half per cent-that one floats
upon its surface like cork. At tho time
there was only gentle ripple upon the sea.

out into deep water. soon found that l

the water, sinking only to the arm. pits.
Discovering this fact made for the shore,
and taking DR.. c.. one of our party. who
could not swim, by the hand, led him into
the sea where the water was many fathons
deep. AT first he was quite reluctant to
follow me. but he soon gained confidence
on finding there was no danger Of sinking,
and he enjoyed the novel bath as much as
ii lie had been an expert swimmer. Should
the bather allow the water to get into his
eyes or mouth he would suffer considerable
abatement in his enjoyment on account Of
its extremely salt. bitter and irritating
nature. No fish can live in this sea, but
various kinds Of ducks abound here at GER
tain seasons of the year. The water was
as clear as ordinary sea water, its tempera-
ture was agreeable, and it has an oily feel
ing, AID altogether it's action on the sur.
lace OF the body was such as to develop
those pleasurable sensations pertaining to
the sense of touch, accompanied by the
most delightful exhilaration. Of al the
baths in the world give me q bath in the
