How to Learn to Swim


Now, dwell on this fact for the key
to the art of swimming is to breathe
out through the nose under water and
20 breathe through the mouth above
the water level.
This feat, trick, or stunt, which
ever you may call it. can be learned
by any one. 1t is vastly more import
ant as life saver than motionless
floating. The lungs can be filled to
their depths in one-fifth of a second
through the open mouth, while one
can exhale at more leisure beneath
the water level through the nose.
Practice Trick At Home.
This trick can be practiced in a
bath tub or even I'm n wash bowl. In
the swimming pool one can best ac-
quire this rhythmic breathing by GO
ing up and down. out doors IL is bet
ter to get in two feet of water and
place your hands on the sand Then
by immersing and raking the head in
rhythm with deep breathing the abil-
ity to breathe out under water can be
acquired by little persistence.
In these exercises don't close your
eyes and rub your face down with
your hands when you come up for
air, but open your eyes and your
mouth and take a quick gulp Of air.
Then duck, holding the air until the
lungs have made use of the oxygen
pressing the air out through the nose,
having the mouth closed, of course.
Knowledge of this art also enables
a person to swim down in the water.
while the swimmer who keeps the
head and shoulders above water has
to put on an unnecessary amount of
power to sustain the body at a wrong
angle. A perfect horizontal measurer
by the spirit level is the only correct
position for the body in the water.
Keep Head In Water.
The head should not be lifted up
for all but the mouth should be swung
around, when the top of the head is
held well down i'm the water. In
sprinting at every second truggeon
stroke by a turn of the neck muscles
the face can be turned up and air
taken i'm through the mouth.
The body should not roll I'm the wa
ter, even i'm the trudgeon stroke, for
the half turn of the neck muscles is
sufficient to enable a person who
swims with his head down to secure
the air required.
Some hygienists might object to
this method of breathing as the OPP
posite of that taught by all trainers.
/ acknowledge they are right so far
as work on land is concerned, but
over the water there is no dust sus-
pended, so inhalng through the mouth
is not injurious, while we can fill the
lungs full of air more easily and more
Quickly than by inhaling through the
nose.

DoWAeER EMPRESS RULES.
An Interesting German View Of the
Present RuIership of Russia.

A dispatch from Berlin contains an
interesting theory of the present power
behind the throne i'm Russia. NJ. Stoly-
| pin, II says, seems again firmly i'm con-
troll of the ship of state but this is only
apparently. for although he is still
prime minister, the power has left his
hands and he is no longer the real
ruler of Russia. He is still the first
servant of the Car. but he is no longer
Car Nicholas confidential adviser, for
it is an open secret that the Car is
again as wax i'm the hands Of his
mother, the Dowager Empress, that
truly remarkable woman who was for
years the confidential adviser of her
late husband, Alexander Ill, and in
whom the Russian people are rapidly
learning to pin their faith.
If the Car continues to take the ad-
vice of his mother and wife, for these
two women, once bitter enemies, are
now thoroughly reconciled. better days
are surely ahead as well for Russia as
for the Romanoff dynasty.
No one. however. could have done
more to destroy royal prestige in Rus

person of Car Nicholas to sharp crit

used first in order to move the Con-
servatives of the Upper Chamber to
vote against their convictions. 1t was
next used by NJ. Trepoff to let the Con-
servatives know that his majesty had
his standpoint and wished
them to vote congruously with their
views on the merit of the question. |

SUBSTITUTE FOR cELLuLolD.

A German chemist, DR.. A. Eichen-
gruen, is reported tn have discovered
an incombustible substitute for cellu-
loid. Numerous attempts have been
made to find an acetylcellulose prod
uct that would replace celluloid, which
is made of nitrocellulose. mcombust-
ible compounds have been obtained,
but none which could take the place
of celluloid. The acetylcellulose prod

A NOBLE DOG.
Leads searchers to Boy HelplessIy
Mired.

To the keen scent, intelligence and
persistency of a little yellow dog that,
because OF his lack of achievement had
been called Nit, August Swertsenger
Of New Haven, Conn, owes the life Of
his four year-Old son Chester. Late on
the night Of April 80 after a score Of
men and women had passed thirty
hours searching for the missing boy
Nit came bounding out of a patch Of
brush and made such fuss that his
master, A. S. Crosby. decided that he
had found something of Importance.
Mr.. Crosby, carrying a lantern, follow
ed the dog half a mile to a big swamp,
on the edge of which the dog stopped
and began to bark furiously.
Mr.. Crosby could see nothing and
twice started away. But Nit refused
to bulge. Wagging his stump of a tail
he held his ground. at the edge of a
bog. Finally the rays of the lantern
disclosed something moving 10 feet
away. Mr.. Crosby walked into the
treacherous mud and found the miss
ing boy
An hour more Of delay and the lad
would have disappeared entirely AS it
was, he was up to his chin in the mud
and too weak from exposure to help
himself or to make an cutlery. II was
with great difficulty that he was res
cued. Mr. Crosby threw tree trunk
across the mud and worked his way
out until he reached the boy. Then he
dragged the little fellow to hard
ground. In fifteen minutes he was
home and in bed.
1t was late on the afternoon of the
29th when the boy disappeared. He
had been TO the house of a neigh Dor
with his father, and on the way home
stopped To pick flowers. Mr.. Swert-
senger. thinking his son was right be-
hind him, went ahead When the child
failed to appear the father went back
after him, but could not find him.
Nit is a hero today. Mr.. Crosby says
he has earned a new name and will be
rechristened as soon as he can choose
something appropriate.

In the art of swimming says the
Chicago Tribune in the first of a series
of three articles. there is not a single
animal that can give man a pointer on
how to propel himself in or on the
water.
In our endeavor to SWIM like a frog
we do three times as much work as is
necessary in order to glide along the
surface. In swimming under water we
have a much more effective method of
propulsion in the scissors" kick. with
less liability of being tangled up by
weeds than in the frog" kick.
1t is out of the question for man to
try to initiate any motions of a fish
but one should expect some pointers
from a warm blooded animal like a
seal in it's method of breathing. But
here, too, we are TO be disappointed
for the southern seal always breathes
out above water.
Struggling Is Useless.
Any four legged animal when dropt
into water for the first time has sim

will swim-it has nothing to learn,
so far as art is concerned. on the
other hand, the running motions a
human being uses on land will in no
way help him in the water. In fact,
his ridiculous endeavors to clutch the
air, as If 1t were rope or the branch
of tree, simply weigh his mouth
and nose beneath the water level,
where he cannot inhale air, but smoth-
ers to death in agony.
Now let us see why we drown so
easily, and then how the simplest
trick or stunt known will prevent any
one but a mere infant from drowning.
Watch the effort of nonswimmer
while struggling in the water and OBJ
serve his mistakes. He is sure to try
to get high out of the water. This
effort to get high thrusts him under
The little finger out of the water
will weigh more than the whole body

more fat than muscle. The person in
the water will register nothing on the
scales while the little finger may
weigh two ounces.
Don't ExhsIe Above Water.
Nonswimmers, in their desperate
struggle, are doing everything to
drown themselves, for they not only
are throwing their hands high out of
the water, which is the quickest and
surest way to sink but they are ex-
haling all the air out of their lungs
while above water either by calling
for help or by the ordinary process of
exhaling. Here is the only real rea-
son why we drown-we exhale the air
