RULES FOR SWIMMERS.

Here are the cardinal rules for
swimmers: Never go into the water
when overheated, or soon otter eat
ing. The careful physician would
probably insist upon an interval of
at least two hours between meal and
bath; one hour is fair compromise
between zeal and prudence, and a
half hour the absolute minimum for
safety. Finally, don't enter the
water timidly and by degrees, but
boldly, aud with a plunge. wetting
the whole body at once. If 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 y
but they are continually disregarded.
When in distress in the water
cool presence of mind and calm self.
control are the essential means OF
salvation. 1t is panic of fear thai
carries the struggling victim to
death before rescures can reach him
Any one who has confidence can
float, especially in salt water, almost
indefinitely, and with practically nc
muscular exertion.

AMAZ0NS FIGHT SIX ROUNDS.

"Texas Mamie" of Philadelphia,
Knocked out Ellen Devine, of New
York, IN six rounds recently, thereby
winning $500 in stakes. Two hum

Texas and Ellen are light

and had long trained for the battle.
They did not fight in regular ring
costume, as all male puglists do, but
In costume more ladylike, with an
extra supply of hairpins to keep
their tresses tight. Scratching, hair
pulling and hitting in clinches
were barred. Otherwise Marquis
of Queensberry rules were followed.
One of the cultured(?) gentlemen
who witnessed the encounter des-
cribed it as follows:
"Ellen done we'll in the irst two
rounds, but Texas took the lead in
the third, and Ellen was badly beat
up by Texas rushing tactics. With
hard wallop in the sixth and last
round and right on the solar -plexus
Texas doubled Ellen up, and the

Rule 1. When you 60 into a

In will have the extreme pleasure of
making you move down, crawling
over you, or waiting out in the aisle

find seat without search warrant {.

THE BOY WHO WORKS.

Do you feel many days that you
have had hard time? Your hours
are long. Your task is hard and
wages small. The contents of your
weekly pay envelope will scarcely
carry you over the week. Sometimes
YOU must wear patched trousers or a
frayed coat. Your employer expects
great deal from you. Other fellows
dress well and always have money
They have coddliug fathers and
mothers, while you toll six days a
week to make living.
Never mind, young man. You
are ahead of the boy who has every
luxury at home. You are getting
experience that he must get some
how later on. Because, sooner or
later, he must fight the real battle
of life himself. And you have the
advantage. While life has been
made easy for him, he lacks drill
and discipline which every life
soldier must go through. You are
preparing yourself. He may 60 10
without preparation and fail.
Work is great blessing. You
cannot see now, but some day you
will say that you were fortunate in
your boyhood days because you were
compelled to work. Because you
cannot get power to do things save
by doing them. Look over the sue
cessful men you know. Get their
history. Nearly every one was COM
PEELED to work in boyhood. They
toughened their muscles by hard
work, and sharpened their brains by
looking out for themselves.
Work makes men. Luck usually
fails. Pluck nearly always wins.
10 succeed in anything one must
overcome obstacles. Force and fibre
are built by hardships. Grit is as
necessary in the making of q man as
gumption. Hardships are not always
handicaps. Often they are helpers.
You will understand this better in
twenty years. Meantime, permit one
who has lived that twenty years and
more, to advise you in this.-Val-

Why BOYS LEAVE THE FARM.
est. Louis Globe-Democrat

An official connected with an east
ern agricultural college has made a
summary of the reasons given by 155
sons of farmers for abandoning the
pursuit of their fathers. Sixty-two
of this number said that farming
does not pay. A strong argument
can be made on the idea that it pays
better than other forms of business.
The secretary of agriculture has
stated that the products of the soil
in this country In 1905 reached a
value of $6.ooO,oOO.O00, which is a
good deal of wealth to divide up as q
result of one industry. Seventeen
of the young men said the hours of
labor on the farm are too long. No
doubt they meant at certain seasons,
but this is a detail open to adjust
ment. Twenty-six thought social
advantages on the farms are not
equal to those in cities. which is also
matter of opinion. Sixteen said
they had natural bent for some
thing else, which is a point that
deserves consideration always. Others
objected to farm monotony, and
fifteen said they would return tc
farming as soon rs they made pile
of money at something else.
Many of these young men are the
victims of illusion, and, unfortunate.
