THE DEADLY UNDERTOW.
What to Do When Caught In the
Treacherous Currents.

Those deadly undertows which so
often prove fatal to swimmers are pro-
duced by tides and coast currents. The
former only carry out at ebb tide; the
latter usually zigzag along the shore.
"If you are a robust swimmer" said
professor of the art, you can gen
orally overcome them by quick, alert
strokes. If, however, you do not at
once succeed don't persevere, for this
is one of the exceptions to the rule
about perseverance. Stop fighting be-
fore exhaustion comes and go with the
tide or current. By resting short
time, floating or swimming leisurely,
you will have time to take your bear
ings and either make another attempt
or call for assistance.
Sometimes you will find the under
tow runs parallel to the shore. You
may then let yourself be carried along
with the certainty that before long it
will twist inshore, when short squirt
will bring you to safety."-Casselrs

One of the most noted of the hardy

the credit of having always dealt fair

they themselves acknowledged. The

Captain Henry Inman in his book,

amusing incident of the gallant pio-
neer.

high, that it would have requil ed the
strength Of two men to lift his rife,

Shakespeare and His Plays.

The Shakespeare-Bacon controversy
is right where it began many years

in possession, though there are many
learned men who seriously question
his rights. 1t has not been proved that
Bacon wrote the plays or that Shake
speare did not write them. One thing
the controversy has done. however-it
has immeasurably heightened the mys'
