In view of the honors recently paid to John Paul Jones it may be interest, ing to note that two other revolution, ary worthies were remembered at about the same time.

In nine cases out of ten of the nu- merous cases of drowning which sad den the summer season the fatal acci- dent may be traced back either to ig- norance of few simple rules that should be known and observed by bathers. or else to rash and reckless disregard of them when known. In the cases of the drowning of good swimmers, the fatal cramp Is gener- ally due to their having gone into the water too soon after eating or when overloaded, and therefore with their strength, unconsciously to themselves, below its par value. Here are the cat dinal rules for swimmers: Never go soon after eating. The careful physi- elan would probably insist upon an in- terval of at least two hours between the meal and the bath; one hour is d fair compromise between zeal and pru- dence. and a half hour the absolute minimum for safety. Finally. dOu', enter the water timidly and by de grees. but boldly and with a plunge. wetting the whole body at once. IT one is not able to dive in, he should wade in to knee depth. then wet his head thoroughly and plunge in bodily. These rules have been repeated often enough to be familiar to everybody, but they are continually disregarded.

adds: Russia will have the oppor- ity of informing herself of Japan's terms. Of the inadmissibility of these there can be no doubt Peace is pos sible only when the vanquished is so convinced of the futility of resistance that he humbly asks for it or when the victor is so triumphant that he can impose it. Neither condition at present exists. Talk about peace to Russia after you have shown her that she cannot continue the war" There is demand among Russian liberals that the government submit the ques- tion of peace to the people through their representatives in the zemsky sobor. This will be good policy if the peace at any price party is not for midable.

As the boat loads of sightseeps ap- proach the cave it is seen to be small opening almost completely shadowed by overhanging greenery. Only at low tide can the entrance be made, then the boatman. standing on the prov of his boat, approaches to within about ten feet of the entrance. Producing a large revolver, he aims for the center of the opening and fires.
 Instantly there is an almost deafen- ing noise, as of thousands of whistles blowing. and out of the cave swarm clouds of swallows; the air is full of them, the very heavens grow dark. As the cloud of birds lifts the boats are propelled swiftly forward and, waving torches over their heads, the boatmen conduct their charges into this odd resting place. The walls, lighted by the flickeTing flame, present a most delightful spectacle. Covered with the deposits or countless years. it looks almost like crystal palace. The echo is tremendous and the lap of the water makes a continuous dull roar.
 As you emerge into the open day you hear the screams and cries of the birds. frightened at the thoughts of possible marauders, and as the torches are lowered and ths boats withdraw. the very sea seems to give up these futtering, anxious things. and they swarm into their own again.
 It is a strange sight and one we'll worth going many mile to see.

Richard Le Gallienne, the poet and critic, is evidently no devotee of the automobile. Hear him: Compare the faces of coachmen and the faces of chauffeurs and you will understand what l mean.

Many a man has tried to justify his failure on the ground that he was doomed by the cards which fate dealt him. that he must pick them up and play the game, and that no effo, {, however great, on his part could ma. terially change the result But. my young friend, the Fatg that deals your cards is in the main your own resolu- ton. The result of the game does not rest with fate or destiny, but with you. You will take the trick if you have the superior energy, ability and determination requisite to change the value of the cards which. you say, fate has dealt you. The game depends upon your training. upon the way you are disciplined to seize and use you. opportunities. and upon your ability 10 put grit in the place of superior ad. vantages
