The science appears to be the same,

a common bent pin with a worm on it at
one end and small boy at the other.
Perhaps it is the very crudity of the
thing that takes the eye Of the wary fish
and the more completely disguises the
murderous intentions of the youngster.
At any rate, the lad catches fish, ana
generally knows just where to look for
them, as many an old fisherman can tes-
tify. Better evidence of this fact cannot
be given than that of FISHERMAN Bob,
whose experience is worth something, as
he is an authority upon the art.

FOR WOMEN BATHERS

This is the season when lovely woman
stoops to fally and finds too late that
aquatic athletics are frequently delusion
and snare: that swimming is more
difficult than it seems and that health
giving water sports are apt to leave her
limp and tired. She also observes with
more or less surprise that despite the
kindliness of artists who draw the sum-
mer gill as bewitching in bathing cos.
tunes, most OF her sisters look aything
but charming when they emerge from
the waves. She ponders upon these things
until she concludes that the only way to
gain real health and strength fom the
sea. and to look well at the same time,
is to pose upon the edge of the beach.
Her conclusion is as unwarTanted as her
preconceived notions. There is no ex-
ercise which the average woman should
take more cautiously than sea bathing or
swimming. Water is not the human be-
ing's native element, and he, and espc-
cially she. mas not been constructed that
be can breast the waves as easily as he
can walk. The resistance of the water is
enormous, compared to the yielding quail
ity of the air. 1t requires the expendi-
ture of vastly more force to advance ten
feet through the coz paratively unyie Id
ing water than it does to go ten times
that distance through air. Therefore
1T is extremely unwise for the woman
who is not equipped BY nature to act as
the surf for long time. II she does 1t IS
inevitable that she should feel wornout at
the end of what should be a refreshing
experience. Twenty minutes a day
should be the average woman's limit.
Sand and sun baths are invigorating
and soothing, but the proper time to take
them is not after dip in the sea. They
are only weakening when the body is al
ready exhausted more or less by bath
ing. Moreover the effect of sunlight upon
face, neck and arms aleady wet with salt
water is something to oe avoided like the
plague. The woman who wishes to lie in
the sand and bask in the sunlight should
do so before entering the water. not after
leaving it. In this way she saves both
her strength and her complexion.

ality that she is i'll literature. Moreover,
the effect OF salt water upon the hair is

water it should be washed immmediate-
ly after the bath in clear, tepid water.
A long cloak should be worn to the
