One of the best directions to avoid
drowning is: Lock the hands behind the
back, fully initiate the lungs, and close
the mouth" A Chicago gentleman once
gave these directions to his daughter, and
two or three weeks ago, while she was
rowing on Lake Michigan. her boat cap
sized, and she was only saved from
drowning by following this rule. As she
observed its directions she went under,
but a short distance, and upon reaching
the surface she fioated until a boat put
out from shore and rescued her.-Boston
