present article to give some prac-
tical hints, upon both swimming
land diving, which will enable any
one who follows them carefully
and accurately to learn one of the
most useful accomplishments
which any man or woman can
acquire.
First, however, let it be said
that you should never attempt to
learn to swim (more especially in
the open sea) without ascertaining
from a medical man that you have
mo physical disability which rem
ders swimming dangerous. This

ARTICLE I.

ARTICLE /.
The number of women and girls
who can swim, and of those who
desire to learn how to swim has
happily greatly increased during
the last few years, with a result
that the percentage of fatal acct
dents to women bathers has SEN
sibly decreased. 1t is also quite
reasonable to suppose that consid-
|erable physical benefit has been
derived by a large number OF
women and girls who have learn
ed this delightful summer pastime.
Swimming is fortunately one of
those amusements or exercises
which can be self-taught, or at all

Washington, D. c., June squen-
.y-skekond. - Richard Achilles
3allinger, the watchdog of the ma
ions resources, has again startled
the country by outlining a conser-
vation policy for Alaska that has
tiwarted Wall street and the
grasping interests of the country.
Mr.. Ballinger-or "the lion
hearted Richard" as he is affec-
tionately called here's one OF
the Understanding men in the
government service. He geta
down to his office at Z o'clock in
the morning, carries his lunch
with him from home, and leaves
the office at z at night. He often
has been known to work at home
until late at night puzzling over
important conservation problems

physically incapacittated from
her feathers on schedule.
Neither do we know precisely
what the other hens thought of
her moulting thus untimely. We
can only infer as to what they
thought of her from what they did
to her.
They* harried her to death.
1t is not quite clear why they
did this. The hen that moulted
|untimely presented a ludicrous
Figure in the barnyard, it is true,
with her bare blue skin, all fleck-
ed with bluer pin-feathers, but her
appearance in such a guise would
hardly seem to justify such con-
dign punishment as the other
hens melted out to her.
One thing, however, is clear
though the reason behind it is
dark.
1t is obviously shockingly i'm.
moral to moult when nobody else
is moulting.
We must add that the rooster
to his eternal glory we say II
took no part whatever in this
dire tragedy.

This is positively the last fable.
Once there was a hen that
moulted a whole month after all
the other hens had moulted.
Why she did this we have no
means of knowing to certainty.
Perhaps she did 50 to be odd. Per-
haps she honestly thought it.would
be a good thing to change the
|moulting season to a time later In
the fall than the conventional
|moulting time. Perhaps she could
not help herself-was afflicted
with some dermal trouble that de-
llayed moulting, or was otherwise

German excavators in the ruins OF
Babylon have been looking over Nebu-

is buried beneath the remnants OF su-
perimposed buildings, but the tomb OF
the old civilization has been made to
Yield its secrets. There has been
found the great oblong hall, with an
alcoye for the throne. where Belshaz-
zar held the famous feast and heard
the warning voice of the prophet.
Many relics Of those precursors OF

discovered. The architecture Of those
days seems to have been mighty. One

Pullman from inviting ruin To all
these objections he made one compre-

course OF his life:

are very greatly Influenced by physi-

poorest surroundings. and bring him

How Hair crows,

1t is a curious fact that boys hair
grows one-half slower than a girls.
In boys the average rate of growth
is three feet three inches in six years,
being an average of .O1S inch per day.

fourth years mans hair grows quick

an eyelash 20 weeks to reach a length
