LEARN SWIMMING ON LAND,
A German School Idea Which Has

and in England.
London (Eng.l Special.

Some ten years ago a well-knovn
German doctor named Roth startled
the educational authorities in Berlin BY
asserting that the proper way to teach
swimming to children was to instrucf
them in certain movements and exer.
cises in the Fairgrounds. Dr. Rothi
theory was al first laughed at The doc
tor, however. stuck to his guns, and to-
day he has the satisfaction Of knowing
that the state schools Of France and Ger.
many have adopted his system. In Lon.
don the school board regards 1t with
great favor, and several schools have in.
cluded it, with certain notifications, in
their curriculum.
The London schools which have
adopted DR.. Roth's system have added
an improvement which consists OF q

He was conscious when taken to the

Grit in Keeping Poultry.

There are two kinds of grit that are
essential to success in keeping poultry.
The Standard dictionary defines these
two kinds of grit as follows: %
Rough. hard particles, sand or gravel; "

titude, courage" Every man who knows
anything about the poultry business
knows that the fowls must have grit

to counterfeit all the motions and bring
into play the various muscles used In
swimming. The great advantage OF chill
dren being taught swimming In this
manner Is that the timid as well as the
daring enjey equal opportunities. In
the ordinary way many children are par

water, and Ii is impossible to instruct
them.
IL they have had thorough course OF
instruction in the school gymnasium or
the playground. however, they master
all the movements, which practice rem

Thus when they at last enter the water

The children are first of all drilled
In the movements of the arms, shoulders

stroke, and after they have arrived at
proficiency they undergo a course Of in

ed that we are out in the country, and
don't live In the town, and that we

to town when we like, and that we
don't have to go there unless we really
wish to go. Personally, l would be
willing not to see a town again in a

1t sounds poetical, but 1t won't be June

In other words, am going to take

your little sister again you won't know
her. Think of it-not a glimpse ct

writer, except the few lines am going
to write you. No more of the GOODNESS
and Indifference of the city-not even
a thought of the faithlessness Of those
in whom trusted. l am going to live

Oh, by the way, received letter
from Mr.. GrOsvenOr this morning. He
tries to explain that affair about the
Ferrand girl at the Willougby recep-

I care? Really, the letter made me
laugh. 1t certainly is absurd for him
to think that it matters in the least to
me what he does.

This Is Miraculous.

Manhattan, Kans., March l4.-One Of
the strongest cases that has ever been
heard Of in Riley Co. is that of the three.
year,-old daughter of Mr. Jonas Brubaker
Of this place.
Some time ago the little girl took whoop-
monia. When the pneumonia left her. she
was taken down with malaria fever with
ut times symptoms Of Spinal Meningitis
), The family doctor brought her safely
through these troubles, but after the fever
Brlghts Disease set in and the doctors
gave her up. Her father tells the rest of
the story:
I'VE began to give her Dodd's Kidney
Pills and after she had taken about three
and half boxes, she was entirely cured.
Now she is well as any child, running and
playing as if nothing had ever been the
matter with her The doctors said she
was beyond the reach of medicine. Dodd's
Kidney Pills certainly saved our little
girls life, when she was SO far into the
chronic stage of Bright's Disease that we
thought nothing could saw her.

BEFORE THE BATTLE.
SOME EUROPEAN OPINIONS OF
THE OPPOSING ARMIES.
German and French War Experts Pre-
dict Russian Victories on Land
English Critics Not Quite
as Unanimous.

Events in the far east have not mod1-
fed the view, repeatedly set forth IN
London organs, that decisive battle
on land between the forces OF Russia
and those of Japan will not take place
for the present. 'The naval question
must first be settled" as the LONDON
Times put is, although the London
Standard remembers that war is full OF
surprises" What we are now Witness
ing, according to the strategists whose
anonymous views find their way into
the Mail and the News of London, is
series of skirmishes on land, although
the sea fighting must be hot. AS
means OF forecasting the fate OF the
first great land battle, English neWspa-
pers are calculating the size OF the hus-
sian army available on the spot. me
London Times feels certain that l50,-
600 men are all that can be accounted
for east of Lake Baikal, and it has
formed a very erroneous impression OF
the facts if Russia can strengthen her
army much beyond the figure given ow-
ing to the condition of the Siberian rail-
way. But the well-edited military or
gan, the Militar Wochenblatt (Berlln),
supposed to be an exponent OF the opln-
ions of the German general staff, pre-
sets the military situation in different
light. 1t calculates that Russia has
231, $50 available troops in the far east,
and that the famous and mucn-discussed
railway can afford them adequate trans
portation. These forces are divided
by the military organ into two classes
-one ready for the field at any mo-
ment and amounting to 174,950 men,
and the other constituting a reserve for
garrison and general guard purposes.
Officers as we'll as rank and file are rep
resented as in good condition.
AS regards Japan, the difference be-
tween English opinion and continental
opinion is not less marked; for, while
the London organs already named con-
slider the mikado able to send out as an
advance army at least 10000 men and
to supplement the force with perhaps
1000 troops in addition, the Militar
Wochenblatt considers Japan's utmost
