herself about on water OF any depth, but
il viii be some time before she can acquire
the proper and most advantageous stroke.
The first stroke to learn is the one which
carries the swimmer the greatest distance.
This is made by placing the elbows against
the ribs and putting the palms of the hands
together on the chest so that the tips of
the fingers just touch the chin. Then, with
a slow movement, the hands should be
parted and as they separate should form
small basins which first force the water

gradually push il out diagonally.
The arms are then slowly urawn IN until
they meet at the chest again, the slower

allowed for each stroke when beginning.
The leg movement is much more easy to
acquire. as il consists simply in drawing up
the limbs and pushing them out, being care
full that they keep time with the motion OF
the hands.
The suit advocated for swimming is
one-piece garment of light material, sim
liar in shape to the union undergarment,
but with trousers ending at the knee and
short sleeves. This gives a freedom OF
motion which is Gcnied by the skirted

The Difficulty in Saving Money.

Talking about saving money said

times harder now to keep cash in your pocket
than it was when / was a young fellow,
and didn't spend a cent. Take the young
men, for instance. / tell you it's bard for
them to save in these times Every young
man wants bicycle and it 'smig hty hard to
stand on the street and see your friends
spinning by on wheels and not invest
yourself. Again, it's a great pDvation
for young fellow not to be well dressed.
The distinction between good clothes and
poor is so sharp nowadays that ii is calling
to be conspicuous by cheap attire. Again,
there is the theater, the excursion boat,
the races and score of other inducements
to spend money, which hardly existed in
my day, and I'm glad they didn't, for if

Louisville Steed That Caused His Mis-
tress Deep Mortification.
Some years ago. said Alderman James
c. Gilbert. of Louisville, to n reporter for
the Courier Journal, Il had a tenant do wn-
town, who died leaving a wife and helpless
family. Their only property consisted
of an old mare, aud more to oblige them
than anything else | bought the horse
She was gentle and my wife adopted her
for her own driving, and was much pleased
for while, as the old mare was so gentle
that my wife could drive her about town
herself
1T seemed, however, that the mare had
once belonged to an old lady over in New
Albany who had a mania on the subject of
funerals, and made point never to miss
one. The old mares principal occupation
for years had been TO follow funeral process
sions to the cemeteries. one day my wife
was driving down the street when she sud
denly encountered a negro funeral folio wed
by a number Of societies, with all the para
phernalia uf an imposing cortege.
The old mare recognized the procession
a. glance aud calmly tIlrped into the line
of the parade In vain my wife tgged at
the reins and tried To turn out. The Old
mare knew her business, and with head
hung down, sOlemnly followed close be-
hind the mOurners. Occasionally they,
would meet au acquaintance of ours, and
they looked with surprise at the tribute
which my wife was apparently paying to
the deceased, until my wife was frautic
with elurtification aud anger.
AT every crossing she would appeal to
bystanders tn stop the old mare. but they
didn't seem to understand, until at last
they passed a policeman. who, in response
10 my wifes fearful appeals, stopped the
old mare and dragged her out of the process
siul, mich to her surprise aud disgust. OF
course, l had good laugh over it, but it
was no laughing matter with my wife,
aud l had no peace till I sold that old
mare aud got her out OF signt for good"
