roads practically unbrollen. The stage

Of coffee. The crowd laughed and
flung back char at the deliberate man
at the table.
While the household. as was the Gus.

stage drive away, the senator contin.

denly, just as the stage started, there
was violent pounding on the dining
room table, and the landlord hurried
in, to find that the senator wanted a
dish of rice pudding. When 1t came
he called for a spoon, but there wasn't
spoon to be found.
THAT shock headed fellow took 'em:

the landlady.
The landlord jumped at the same
conclusion.

But before the officer could move the
senator opened the stage door. stepped

For stern bravado, says the United

rival the feat of Ensign ellis, who
saw a stray torpedo coming slowly. but
surely, toward the anchored torpedo

war. He sprang overheard, turned the
nose of the torpedo in a safer direction
and screwed up the firing pin tightly,
so that 1t would not operate. Then,
treading water, he saluted Lieutenant

DROWNING is QUICK.
Man Cannot Live Under water More
Than Two Minutes.


.'The story frequently repeated about
professional divers who have been able
to remain under water for over two
minutes is silly" said doctor. mo
one can remain under water that long
without drowning, whether he is a
trained diver or not. At Nayarino.
where the sponge divers are reported
to be able 10 remain under water three
and four minutes, tests were made re.
Gently and resulted in conclusiyely
proving that none of them remained
down rs long as minute and half
Ninety seconds seems a very long time
to the watcher on shore, and 1t is about
the limit of a divers endurance under
water. At Ceylon, where time tests
were also made among the famous
pearl divers, 1t was ascertained tint
few of them remained below the sur
face as long as Il minute, and other
tests made on the Red sea among the
Arabs proved that n minute and a
quarter was the longest they could
endure without fresh breath.
ION the coast of England several
years ago diver a trained diver, one
of the best on the coast, renowned for
his endurance. went down and was
pulled up SO slowly when he gave the
signal that he was under water about
two minutes and five seconds. He was
drawn out of the water insensible,
with blood flowing from his nose and
ears, and it was only after long and
arduous work that his recovery from
the effects OF that two minute star
under water was assured. Drowning Is
quick death. Even though the water
is Kept out Of the lungs, insensibility
will ensue in one minute ANA complete

of people who have been in the water

orally mistakes or untrue. A man

without coming to the surface several
times and be restored to life."-st.
