DIP IN THE OCEAN.

If the city is hot, if the air seems
dead. If you yourself are tired and
nerveless, then come down to Casco
Bay and go in bathing. The good old
treatment might have obliged you to
stay in room and be quiet, till by
some marvellous presto change the
medicine that you took would set you
on your feet with the blood coursing
through your body. The new method.
however. is different, and what is
more important, it Is better, cheaper.
simpler. Now we try to get into har-
mony with nature. and by so doing TO
take advantage of the wondrous on
portunities that surround us. II is
false economy of our forces that leads
us TO drudge continually without the
least occasion OF recreation. A good
rest from work and an attempt for
half a day even to put ones self in
harmony with nature. will prove to be
wonderful restorative. Casco Bay
Offers fine opportunities for bathing.
The surf bather has a fine place at
Long Island. while almost without ex-
ception every island in the bay has a
good bathing beach. At Chebeague
there are a goodly number of bath
houses, while at Mackerel Cove. Bal.
ley Island and at South Harpswall
Point there are fine, well protected
beaches.
Other places on coast have fine
beaches. but few, IL any. have water
that reacts with such a tonic effect.
Although little cool at first. one soon
becomes used to IL. and the exhilira-
ton which comes an hour or so after
the bath is a good antidote for the
temporary GOODNESS at first. No bather
coming out of the water of the bay
mas the appearance of lassitude which
Is so often noticed among fresh water
bathers. and Is sometimes seen among
those who battle in the waters farther
south. A proper amount OF common
sense and care will ensure perfect
safety, and the person In need of a
tonic will find IL, and can revel TO his
hearts content. The result will be
such as always comes to the person
who comes close to nature: he will be
Gained, invigorated and more respon.
siye to the other beauties of Casco
Bay.

The calculation Of the Korean year

made alternately long months of thirty
days and short ones of twenty-nine.
The first Is a long month. called a
great moon;" the second a short

and so on.
The moons are divided into three
parts OF ten days each. instead Of into
-FOUR weeks. as with us. The day is d.
vided into twelve hours, each one of
which is twice as long as one Of our
own. The Korean day begins at mid.
night.
In calculating age. Koreans take
small account OF any fraction OF
year. The moment a Korean baby is
born he is said to be one year old. and
one year old he remains until the CON-
Ing OF the next New Years Day. when
he is suddenly advanced to be two
years old. just as all his compatriots
are pronounced n year older, no matter
how near the close OF the expiring year
they may have been born.

Visitors come to Casco Bay from all

bring much of good to the bay and

are greater opportunities for this help

been availed Of by either party.

Vsirs the Soldier Boys to swell TAeIr
Earnings.
Your Uncle Sam is becoming quite a
banker for the American soldiers. For
the year ending June 80. 1903. there
were deposited by soldiers 81 .SSS. Ola.
and II 10 understood that the amount
for the fiscal year. which will end the
last Of the coming June. will be much
larger. The enlisted men Of the Unit
ed States are allowed to leave their
money In the hands of the psymas ters.
taking certificate for It, and the Gov
eminent pays the men interest at the
rate OF four per cent year. Mary
soldiers largely increase their earnings
by leaving their money Oh deposit as
long as possible and II is really a very
good savings bank for them. The year
before the Spanish War the amount de.
posted was less than one-third Of that
deposited in 1903. The enlisted strength
of the army has been increased since
then, and Is now about double what II
was before the Spanish War. but the
amount left in deposit is three times as
great as 1t was when the army was
smaller.
Possibly service in the Orient and
the establishment Of large posts have
been conducive to saving on the part
Of troops. At all events. officers Of the
War Department look upon the in.
crease as being an indication Of thrift.
mess upon the part Of the American
soldiers. On several occasions at.
tempts have teen rad I Congress to
allow officers Of the army the same
privilege Of leaving their money OH
deposit. but every time such a bill has
been misunderstanding Post.
