In an article on bathing in the Dead

cork In the effort to regain ones foot

and shins are barked by the Jagged
stones and pebbles. and when at length
one does ernerge from it's treacherous
bosom, with the lower limbs bleeding
and torn. one becomes aware of hor-

eyes, ears, nostrils. mouth and almost
every pore of the skin from the brine
and bitumen which have penetrated

en- the bather in the Dead sea Is liable
to an eruption, which breaks out all
over the body and which is commonly
known as the Dead sea RASH The
best antidote to this is to hurry across
as quickly as possible to the river Jor-

in. The soft and muddy waters of that
sacred but dirty stream will effectually
remove the salt that has incrusted the
