, WITH SWIMMING, SAYS M'LISS
Respect the Ocean, She Advises, Since You Can
not Master ItLife Guard Talks About
Safe and Sane Surf Bathing
ON SUNDAY the swimming season opened oftlclally with tho first drowning1.
An Inexpert awlmmer,a 16-year-old boy, got beyond his depth In tho Schuyl
kill, became cramped and went down boforo any ono could rescue him. Doubt
less there will be many similar cases before tho season closes,
Every year the Increased attendanco at tho public nnd privates swimming
Jroola testifies to the fact that aa a nation wo do not fear water If such testl
mony were needed. Tho tlmo was when mothers did not want their children to
go near It, except at tho proscribed bathing times. It used to bo thought that
keeping a youngster Ignorant of tho water was tho surest means of keeping
him away from It.
But any truant officer In any district that Is near a pool or swimming holo
Wilt tell you that theso aro as fascinating a luro as tho diamond or tho circus
ring. AS a result of this Increased knowledge, mothers now go to the length not
only of encouraging tholr children In aquatic BportB, but of Insisting that they
know enough to take cara of themselves In tho water.
Hundreds of drownings, however, provo annually that It li "hot enough to
know how to swim, Thoso who would enjoy tho water without rear of fatal
consequences must also learn prudonco. If you cannot master nn clement, you
can at least learn to respect It,
I remember last summer Interviewing a coast guard at Atlantic City, a man
Who In his tlmo has rescued hundreds of people who would go out beyond tholr
depth. It was Immediately after wliat was described as an "ofTset" tldo had
owopt 35 pcoplo beyond tho llfo lino. Only a few of them, after almost super
human work on tho part of tho life savors, were rescued.
It was from tho horo of this occasion that I heard tho most trenchant re
marks about tho foolhardlncss of swimmers that I havo ovor listened to.
Tou can't beat tho ocean," this brawny rescuer said, "and only fools think
thoy aro a match for It. Tour seafaring man, tho sailor and tho coast guard, nsk
hjm what ho fears abovo everything elso In tho world and ho will toll you tho
sea. Evory man, woman and child should know how to nwlm, as a matter of self
preservation. But because they do know how Is no reason why thoy should show
off llko fools.
"I've been swimming for years was a long-distance champion at ono time
and my endurance Is as good as you can find on this coast, but I wouldn't tako
tho chances that some of theso excursion i'ooIs, who don't get near tho water moro
than halt a dozen times In a summer, tako.
"Surf bathing Is as safo as paddling your toes In a brook If you don't go out
too far. Stay whero tho pcoplo arc. Anybody who can swim at all can swim
In shoulder-depth water. Don't go ovor your head unless It's necessary to
rescue Somebody elso. And don't attempt to rescue at all unless you'ro expert.
It only means two lives gono Instead of ono. Rescuing Is dangerous enough
ovon when It's a man's business. An amateur seldom succeeds at It."
Ono of twelve golden rules for girls, tabulated by a Clovcland divine, Is:
"Bo considerate about tho tlmo and money of your gentlemen friends."
Anybody would know that was n man-made rule. M'LISS.

In reading your note one quotes mentally
a changed version of a scriptural phrase.
There are few more pitiable sights to the
compassionate beholder of his fellow

of trusses have been put at the service of

may receive the appliance that will abate

"For a long, long time I luue wanted
a Bewlng machine I read In your faith

I am supporting my mother, dad, four sis

have a brother 13. Father had his back
broken six years ago, so I am the only
support and it is hard. I work In a cloth

my sisters could all help. If I can have
a machine I shall never be thankful
enough. Should any one need it worse
than I do I hopo she will get It and
enjoy it. ELIZABETH T."
I have let Ellzaboth T. tell her story In
her own way. It Is for members to say
what shall be done with it when It has
been "marked, read and inwardly di
gested." We havo not asked for a sew
ing machine for at least half a year. The
Corner has a rooted objection to bur
dening the constituency with pleaa for
bulky and costly articles Our corre
spondent would not havo put in a petition
for a machine had she not been encour
aged to the daring deed by the offer
.through the Corner of the prize. It goes
without saying that it did not linger In our

It may bo a trifle ungracious to append
to qur grateful acknowledgment of the

A CLEAN MOUTH IS BLANKET
INSURANCE AGAINST DISEASE
By WILLIAM BRADY, M. D.
DOCTORS nowadays neer hesitate to
look a private patient In thp mouth.
In many Instances It Is an adventure in
deed. Rut then, the practlco of medicine
Is Just one adventure after another, any
way. Tho mouth has been widely advertised
In recent years as a flrst-cUiBs placo for
growing germs Even In this column wo
hao hinted occasionally that rhoumatlsm
begins with a septic focus in tho mouth
In many cases, and clears up only when
tho depot of poison Is eradicated.
Unfortunately, wo still havo tho dllll
dont dentist In our midst tho skilled
mechanic, perhaps, who permits tho whims
and vaporlngs of the "old uoman" to
guide his hand In treating oral sepsis
Thero aro some dentists htlll doing busi

that It doesn't pay to fill the baby teeth,
because tho teeth will bo lost In a few
years anyhow. But competent dentists as
sure us. If wo need assurance, that It la
highly Important to keop tho primary
teeth In the best possible condition, by
dentistry when necessary, In order to pre
serve a normal soil for tho development
and eruption of tho permanent teeth
And we can assure tho dentists that un
less the primary or baby teeth are kept
clean and sound by careful mouth hy
giene and Intelligent dentistry, tho child
Is much more susceptible to scrofula (tu
berculosis of neck glands) and, later In
life, consumption.
Decayed primary teeth have a great deal
to do with diseased tonsils and adenoids
in chUr?n.
DcntmtH and physicians agree that an
tiseptic tooth-paBtes or powders aro not
generally desirable, but -hould be pre
scribed only in certain cases requiring an
tiseptic. Mouth and tooth cleanliness re
quires no antiseptic applications. Indeed,
antiseptics promiscuously employed may
ultimately do moro harm than good, by In
juring the mucous lining of tho mouth and
thus opening portals of Infection
Plain soap nnd water on tho toothbrush
seems as elllcaclous and ns agreeable ns
anything for cleansing tho teeth, but If
tho tasto of soap Is obnoxious thero nro

A clean mouth Is a sort of blnnket In

' QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Hard Water Good for Gallstones
Do you think that drinking hard water
Is favorable to tho formation of gall
stones? Answer Categorically, no. It Is not.
Drink it, however hard, It you would ward
off gallstones.
Calcium Salts in the Body
Pkso explain tho cause of insufficient
calcium salts in the body, nnd state
whether chocolato candy causes the same.
Answer To our knowledge there Is no
such condition recognized. It Is a theory
somo one Inyentcd to creato a demand for
his particular line of dope. In rickets there
U. a defective metabolism of lime salts,
but no particular food or medicine can
alter the proportion of calcium in the
body. Quotations to tho contrary will not
stand verification, you will find. Choc
olate candy Is O. K.
How to "Fuss"
The woman who says sho doesn't bother
to" take care of her sWn and hair wastes'
ier breath she geners. .y looks the part.
It is a bclf-ovldent truth. Why this is so
remains a mystery. It is woman's nat
ural duty to look aa well ns possible, and
there isn't a male extant who doesn't like
to see a well-groomed, elegant woman.
And becoming one Isn't an Impossibility.
It requires time, of course, and a good bit
of "fussing," but everything worth while
takes time. Don't you think It Is worth
while to have daintily manicured nails,
well-kept hair, clear, pink skin, and a good
figure? It only means looking natural,
for nature meant us all to bo pink cheeked
and clear eyed. Indigestion and loss of
sleep have done more to ruin beauty than
all the cosmetics in creation.
It's an old story by now to say that a
glass of hot water before meals btlmulates
digestion, but It Is true. The effect of this
simple precaution on a muddy skin can be
noticed In a few months. A slice of lemon
or the Juice of a half-lemon helps, too. It
should be added to the, glass of hot water
before drinking.
The eyes are brightened by an occasion
al strengthening bath of boracla acid solu
tion, using about a half-teaspoonful to a
quart of water. The hair should be
brushed thoroughly with clean brushes at
least every other day. The brushes should
be washed every other day, too. Two
should be kept, using them alternately.

Do you know that a short, lightweight
coat to slip on over the bathing costume
is an absolute essential to the summer

But when hor heart or mine sank low
Ah, then, It waa no longer sol '
From the slant palm she rnls'd her head.
And klss'd tho chcok whence youth ha
fled.
Angels I some futuro day for thin,
Glvo her ns Bwcct nnd pure a kiss.
Walter Savngo Landor.
