tonka or White Bear, but of the multi
tude of women whose business calls or
whose holidays lead them on the waters
every summer. The recent calamity at
Pepin fell principally upon women, be-
cause they. poor souls, could not swim.
Why should not swimming be taught
women and girls. as it becomes a part
of the youthful education of boys? 1t
is not only useful and saving, but it is
healthful and helping. Take good
woman swimmer and nine times out of
ten she is a strong, graceful walker,
with straight back, well-turned muscles
and an easy attitude of natural grace.
The girl that is fearless swimmer can
do most anything. 81 know that to be
a fact" said a certain st. Paul man
who formerly taught swimming in the
East.
Every girl should be taught to swim
when she's about eight years old. It's
much easier to learn then; the muscles
are more supple. Then healthful
child is usually fearless, and that's the
whole secret of learning to swim. A
woman that isn't afraid can be taught

"Oh, here come the Blanks. | will

broke in irrelevantly, "Com e along"
and with gay effrontery Miss Flatz
dashed into the water.
A slender but wiry young fellow stood
waiting for roller to come in. He
held his companion sright hand in his
left, with his left side facing the ocean,
bringing her left side to the front. His
feet were firmly braced on the sand,
and his body thrown we'll forward so as
to form good solid brace against the
waves. When the roller came booming
in the girl gave light spring into the
air, and the slnewy arm of her escort
threw her around with all his force into
the breaker.
The girl rose over the foam like a
feather, the water rushed over her

ure. This arm drill is easy enough; 1t
is the kicking that brings many a
neophyte to grief. The great mistake
many people make is that they do not
know how to turn the ankle. When the
foot is to be brought back on the up
stroke the axle should be Strengthened
and the foot stiffened like ballet girl
when she points her toe at the chan
delier and does an airy pirouette that
entrances the boxes. You see, that
brings the foot up without carrying any
water with it. You can make twice the
Roadway by observing this rule. In the
same way, the angle at which the hand
is held makes great difference. The
orizing doesn't do much good though.
It's practice and fearlessness you want.
In teaching woman you'll find that
she wants her head too high. You must
make her get used to the water and
not mind a little roaring in her ears.
Slight women make the best swimmers,
but stout ones can float easier.

Lively Postage Stamps.

Philadelphia Press.
1t is pleasant to think that the familiar
saying. "Wonders will never cease" is
literally true. Life would hardly be
worth living if we could no longer be
surprised. AS it is, the very simplest
and most everyday object, even posi-
age stamp, will sometimes present itself
in novel and startling aspect.
A Georgia man, Mr.. Evans, stood In
the Girard cafe, preparing to mail let
ter, and had just moistened two one
cent stamps when they slipped from his
fingers and fluttered to the floor. MI,
Evans, who is portly man, looked at
them in disgust. and then stopped to
pick them up.
Before he could put his fingers upon
them, however, they began to move
slowly away from him along the floor.
He drew back and gazed at the specta-
Gle with natural astonishment. He ran
his fingers through his hair and pinched
his ears to make sure that he was awake,
and all the while the postage stamps
were gliding along the floor. When they
reached the side of the room they began
slowly to ascend the wall.
1t is to be hoped that Mr.. Evans is not
given to drink, but according to the
Press he fastened to the bartender at
this point and begged him to feel his
pulse. When he returned the stamps
had risen half way to the ceiling, and
were still gliding upward.
Happily for Mr.. Evans sanity, the
bits of blue paper just then altered their
course and began to descend, and soon
they were within reach of his hand.
Then the mystery was explained. The
moistened stamps had fallen upon a
fiy's back and had stuck to the insect,
which naturally enough started off with
them

like duck. The smart little bow on

she only laughed the merrier when q

her choking and spluttering.
An eerie shrek from the waves made
every one turn pale.

and with her free hand she pounded
him frantically on the head.
''That's what she calls Scrooching,"
remarked byStander, gloomily. II
don't wonder he doesn't like it."
Ten minutes later Miss Flatz and her
escort passed along, in their society
costumes. She looked lovely, with a
thoroughbred Dayton avenue radiance.
''Such a lark as we had!'' she eX-
claimed. joyously. didn't we,

months, when a new impression takes
their place. Mile. PreSslitZ is wOmaM
of extravaganza tastes, and has one OF
the finest turnoutS in Paris. She ID
well-bred, and does not make the CONF
mon mistake of her class by being too
ostentatious. This is not the first VIC
tim who has killed himself on her ac-
count. Two years ago she ensnared q
young German count. very handsome
fellow, who fell head over ears in love
with her, and believed her to be the
angel she simulated. So desperate was
his infatuatiOn that he insisted upon
marriage, and his case seems to be
duplicate of that of poor Capt. D'Au-
ville'S.
'.The couple went on an extended
honeymoon and then returned to Paris,
where sumptuous establishment had
been provided for them. To meet his
expenses the count mortgaged his es-
tablishment, and when finally he awOke
to a sense of his folly and found out
how he had been tricked he went to
Monte Carlo to lose all or repleniSh his
fortune. After run of ill-luck at the
Casino, he was found one morning with
bullet hole in his forehead lying on
one of the benches in the gardens. Tha
marriage ceremony was alleged to have
been only mummery, and, although the
young mans family threatened litiga-
ton or vengeance, the woman was never
troubled"
A further investigation Of the subject
developed the fact that Mile. Presslitz
is an extremely well educated woman.
The charm about her, which attracts so
many admirers, is the absolute sim
plicity of her character and her belief
in her own good faith. She seldom
takes wine, and, outside of her frequent
change of partners, appears to lead tho
life of a well-balanced and behaved
woman. She is said to possess the in,
tensity of a Sappho. and is q great ad-
mirer of poetry. She seems to flourish
like upas tree, while the bones Of her
victims whiten around her.

"But women never seem to learn to
dive. There are few who get SO they
can take header very bravely, but the
average woman seems to have an in
tuitive desire to throw her feet up to the
top of the water the minute her head
strikes, and that's fatal to diver. The
only way to prevent that is to make
them hold the feet close together so that
the ankles are tightly pressed against

quieter and more secluded the spot, the
more readily the girl will pick up SWIM
ming. At the more popular resorts
there is too much to distract the atten--
ton, and the pretty girl will be inclined
to think rather of how she looks than
how she swims. Said the teacher: "a
nice, quiet nook is the best place. Then
you take your pupil, and you put your
hand under her chin. and make her lie

top of the waves, but don't let her.

There was one daring little witch here
that declared she never. no never, would
be happy until she had learned to do
the somersault backwards through the
waves. All the smart boys did it SO
easily, and one day when there were
very few people on the beach she tried
it. She came up struggling and cough
ing and shivering. That big wave just
took her delicate little frame and rolled
her over and over, and threw sand and
gravel in her face, and made her wish
she had been content to be plain still
water swimmer. She always spoke re-
spectfully of the waves after that, not
