BY Prof. F. E. Dalton.

In this age of athletics it is really a
wonder that everyone cannot swim, es-
peciaIly when the essentials required for
it are only a few feet of water and the
arms and legs. There are few places,
even in our interior towns and cities,
where the water cannot be found. Again,
the smallest child or weakest woman can
enjoy the science natatorial.
For those who have never tried to
swim these brief but thorough in5truc-
tiOns are prepared.
When undressed rub yourself down
with q rough towel, and then walk into
the water
The first thing to be done on entering
is to put your head under water open
your eyes and accustom yourself to the
look OF things under water, which will
overcome any fear that you may possess.
After this has been done two or three
times place any object that is hard and
white at the bottom of the water, then
try to pick it up, which will necessitate
opening the eyes.

come this place a little cotton wool in
each ear, then initiate the abuomen. draw
your arms up alongside the body and
straighten them out in straight line
with the shoulders; then push the arms
and hands through the water until the
latter touch the legs. After some little
practice those movements will come easy.
One great point beginners should al
ways remember-keep the hands and legs
under the water. Many beginners get
frightened by having so much of the wa
ter wash over their faces. This can al
ways be overcome by keeping the hands
below the water. When you have mas
tered these arm movements fairly well
commence on the leg strokes. Start
with the legs Strengthened out, the heels
together, draw the feet up toward the
body. keep the knees we'll turned out as
far as possible. Shoot the legs out
wide, then finish the kick by bringing
the legs straight together with a snap
This stroke and way OF swimming on the
back will be found to be not only the
easiest but the best, for one can lie on
his back and rest by simply stretching
out the arms back over the head in a
straight line with the body.

water get an air bladder.
Personally, | think an air bladder is
of more assistance in holding person in
the water than friend, as the bladder
keeps one up to a uniform height, where
as wnen held up by friend one is apt
to either slip, tire or lose patience, and
the result is the pupil is unexpectedly
forced under the water and is apt to lose
confidence in his power to keep afoat.
Many who learn to swim often wonder
at their SLOW progress through the water,
which is solely oecasioned by so many
learning the strokes incorrectly; there
fore particular attention should be given
to the elementary or initial stages.
In my varied experience l have found
that most nervous people gain confidence
quicker on the back. as it is not only
more natural position. but it is much
easier for n beginner to breathe, as so
many have the tendency to tightly close
the mouth when swimming on the breast
Start then by lying on the back, either
held up by person or by the aid of an
air bladder; straighten yourself out
hold the head way back, the ears being
under water Some persons do not like
the water penetrating the ears; to over

LIABILITY ON RAISED CHECKS.
A Suit in Favor of Chemical National
Bank Affecting All Institutions.

In the case of Critten vs.. tke Chemi-
cal National Bank, the court of appeals
of New York has just rendered de
cision III favor of the bank.
George G. Williams, president of the
institution. in a letter addressed to tac
banks Of the state says:
During the last two years this bank
has been in litigation, conteSting a claim
made by depoSitors on account of raised
checks. which were altered by the de
posltorS confidential clerk Davis. who
had charge of the firms check book and
drew their checks, and who had been in
troduced and accredited To this bank as
the firms representative who would draw
money from time 10 time and would Mt
tend to their business generally ut the
bank. The operations extended over Il
period of about two years. during which
time the paSSboOk was written up and
returned TO the firm with their Cancelled
vouchers no less than twelve times. 1t
was turned over by them to the culprir
to examine the vouchers (which he had
raised aud 10 verify the balances for
them. Most of the checks were Skillfully
altered and as Davis had matters entire
ly in his own hands the stealing could
have gone on for years longer had he not
been taken i'll.
Notwithstanding the lack of precau-
tionary system in handling their finances
the firm made demand upon this bank 10
refund to them the amount stolen by
their thief: and strange as it may seem.
Notwithstanding their negligence they

For the breast stroke commence by
practicing the arm and leg movements on
shore. The hands should be brought to-
gether to the chest and shot out straight
in front, then turn the hands fiat, palms
downward, and bring them straight round
in a line with the shoulders; from there
bend the elbows back and bring the
hands together at the chest. For the leg
action lie face downward on a STOOL draw
the legs up, then kick them out as wide
as possible, then bring the legs straight
together.
The leg movement is the same as on
the back.
Practice the arm strokes first, as they
are easiest to manage. When you have
had a few days practice try and swim;
commence by bending forward with the
hands straight in front of you and give
yourself a slight push with your legs,
then try and do the movements slowly
and do not shorten them.
