The remarkable number of deaths
by drowning proves that too many
persons venture into waters without
knowing how to swim. About 80 per
cent. of those drowned so far this
summer did not have that knowledge.
This is all the more wonderful when
knowledge of swimming may so
easily be had. A person of average
physique should be able to swim sew

passing a street crossing the large
rear driving wheel on the right hand
side broke off and fell beside the
track. The engineer, says a local ex-

situation, and at once closed the
throttle and put on the emergency
brakes. The locomotive in the mean.
time had Travelled more than so wards
on three wheels. Just as the train
was coming to standstill the two
large driving wheels on the left hand
side broke off in precisely the same
manner as the first one hand. The
body of the engine dropped several
feet. the engine box falling squarely

no one was hurt is another astonish-

There is always dull time in busi.
ness in July and August which 10
whx pn.,n...,. usually spoken Of
in the papers as
~ summer the '.midsummer
season of inactivity" There are a
great many reasons for this falling
ON OF business in the latter part Of
summer, but one of the chief reasons
is that it is harvest time on the farms,
says the Little Chronicle. The farm
ers gather their crops of wheat, oats,
hay and cotton, and are able to calcu-
late the yields of orchards and corn
helds, and to count the heads of live
stock that is to go to the market.
But it is at least September before
they sell much and begin to make
their plans and purchases for the win
ter. Country merchants also wait
until they know if money will be
plentiful or scarce in their neighbor-
hoods before going to the big cities
to lay in their stocks of groceries,
dry goods, boots and shoes and ready
made clothing for the fall trade. II
is in July and August that city
stores, even groceries to large ex-
tent, are able to close on Saturday
afternoons. In the downtown dis
triots banks and offices, wholesale and
retail houses, are all closed, and the
streets are as quiet as the byways Of
village. Even in London, "the heart
OF the world" whose beats may be
counted in the pulses of cities on the
other side of the globe, Saturday aft
ernoon is a "bank holiday" and it is
possible, in late summer, for clerks
In stores and offices to take vacations,
and for the proprietors to join their
families in the country or by the sea
or lake shore.
