THE RULES OF BATHING.
To Follow Them All Would Be n
Difficult Matter.

From the Philadelphia Record.
The father of eight children made an
exclamation of disgust.
ITS very odd" he said.
Then he took out his penknife and
cut certain paragraphs out of the news
paper clippings that lay before him.
The clippings all dealt with one sub
iect. the subject of Reminders and
Hints for Bathers." and the man was
interested in them because he was
about to send his eight children 0he

to the seashore.
His penknife clippings made num-
Der Of little white heaps. He read the
contents of these heaps, frowning. IT'S
very odd" he repeated.
Here are a few of the hints for
bathers" that the man had compiled
from his various articles:
Never battle soon after eating.
The morning, after breakfast, is the
best time to bathe.
Do not remain in the water over
twenty minutes.
No bath should be more than ten
minutes long.
bath of twenty minutes is about
right.
Battle at least an hour a day.
Always wet yourself with one plunge,
never by degrees.
Never wet the body all at once, or
the great shock is apt to cause heart
failure.
Wet the wrists first on entering the
water.
On entering the water the chest and
abdomen should be wetted first.
Wet the head first always.
Never bathe directly in front of a
bathing post, as the surf might throw
you against it so violently as to stun
you.
1t is we'll 10 bathc in front of bath
ing post. The surf then. instead of
carrying you out, will carry you to-
wards the post, which you can grasp in
moments of peril.
A half-hour rest is always beneficial
Immediately after the bath.
After the bath exercise vigorously
for thirty minutes.
Never bathe with the back to the
current. Swimmers who do so are apt
to lose their feet.
Always bathe with the back to the
current, or you are liable to lose your
feet.
If a chill comes over you take small
drink of brandy.
Never drink brandy for a chill Rub
yourself till warmth returns with a
coarse towel.
For a chill. try hot lemonade.

"The late Harriet Lane Johnston, u
said a New York woman to the New
York Sun, who was an intimate friend
of the former mistress of the White
House, having lived so long with her
statesman uncle, James Buchanan, had
many interesting "reminiscences of him
and his times. One of them which she
was fond of relating was an incident
told to her by Mr.. Buchanan of the So
cial career of Gen. Jackson while he
was President. Mr.. Buchanan was in
the United States Senate at the time.
AS Mrs. Johnston related the Incl
dent, a famous Baltimore lady. one of
the leaders in society of that day and
related to an English family of title
and distinction, had spent a long time
IN england during JacksonS adminis-
tration, her family connections admit
ting her to the inner circles of aristo-
cratic and royal society. George "
was then King, and short time before
this lady left England to return to
America she was presented to him. He
conhded to her a message to President
jackson, which he requested her to de-
liver in person.
AC reputation MS pOlLlCdl enemies
mad made for Jackson was such that
the lady was most unfavorabIy i'm
pressed, never having met the rugged
OLD soldier. In fact, the idea of'Jack-
sonian vulgarity' was quite the popular
one, ana there were many stories of the
generals offensive application of it in
his social as well as business contact
with visitors.
Consequently, this kigh-br mes
sage-bearer from the King of England
was very much disinclined to a person.
al interview with this President of
boorish reputation, but, having under
taken TO carry out the wishes of the
King, she determined to undergo the
trlal, prepared to be greatly shocked at
what she might see and hear. Being
well acquainted with James Buchanan.
she begged him to accompany her on
her mission and introduce her to the
President.
My uncle escorted the lady to the
White House., Mrs. Johnston related
merrlly, and leaving her in the recep-
tlon room he went to- the Presidents
room to arrange for the interview.
He found the President alone. His
Iace was covered with bristling beard
OF several days growth. He was wear
ing dressing gown which was very
iNNH SOISu anu greatly the worse Tor
past service. He was smoking an old
clay pipe.
1t was a disheartening moment for
Mr.. Buchanan, for to present the re-
nned and elegant lady to the President
OF the United States in such attire and
personal uncouthness seemed to him
but little better than a national dis
grace. He told the President about
the distinguished woman who had come
10 seek an introduction to him, on an
errand from the King of England, and
made bold to say
But, General. you ought not to
