HOW TO LEARN TO SWIM.

You can learn to swim in day. If
you are particularly we'll adapted for
the sport you may learn it in single
lesson. Twill be your self-appointed
teacher, and so let us go right in for
swim. AS my pupil you must do as
say and do nothing else. Don't look
down into the water. Look ahead
and out; that removes timidity. The
depth is now we'll above your waist,
which means that there's plenty OF
water to float your body. Some peo-
pie think a few inches of water over
the breech will float. them! NOW,
straighten your body. That's 1t.
Throw your head well back. Keep it
there, while put you in the floating
| position. This is done. You are
floating now-why? Because every
part of your body, head, arms, feet
and trunk, is partly submerged and
thus supported by the water. To
show you what this means we will
make an experiment. Just try to look
at your toes and.doWn you'll go.
From the posidban of floating fling
yourself over SO that your left side
faces the bottom. Dig in with your
right hand as far as you can reach in
straight line with your body. Move
. up this 'soar" hand into position, with
the palm toward your body and close
enough to almost touch it. From
your elbow to your finger tips the
right arm is submerged during this
stroke, which covers generally two
!. thirds the length of the body, starting
right below the nose and finishing
almost over the knee. While the
right hand goes forward to make the
stroke, the left hand is just reaching
forward, with the palm pointing te
: the bottom. This "reaching'' of the
b left arm must be correctly done, al
Q all the floating in motion" falls OF

"A DOLL PARTY.

A small acquaintance of ours had a
dolls party that delighted her little
friends and furnished each of them
with souvenir that will give them
pleasure for many days to come. 1t
was given in. the grape arbor at the
side of the house.
Margaret and her mother had had a
long conference the week before,
which resulted in merry shopping
expedition. After buying dozen
cheap little dolls, all alike in size, but
different as to hair and complexion,
they invested in all shades of crepe
paper, thread, black, white and yellow
silk floss and some generous bottles
of paste. In the invitations, each
child was asked to bring scissors and
thimbles and to come promptly at
three O'Clock. A circle of cushions
under the grape vines looked very in
wiling. In the middle was a large
tray, with pins, needles, thread and
paste with toothpicks for using it.
Pictures of dolls of all nations were
pinned upon the grape leaves or hung
upon convenient little twigs. After
an exciting debate each guest chose
the colors she wished for dressing her
doll. Then the sewing school training
began to show. Serious discussions
were held about the style of a sleeve,
