The dcaf—andalumb gentleman left tht

with some interest. but no carriage of any

At tho end of I month Lilian Ferguson
felt completely and thoroughly at hornt

They and ranged the woods. and visited
all the grottoes and cascades; they had sur-
rounded her with an atmosphere of the

Mrs. liartloigli. their aunt. was equally '

young uncle. had already taken her into his

Eulalic Morton‘s face glowed scarlet. She
literally knew not what to say. But Lilian
Ferguson stood calm and unmoved.
“ Then.“ she said. smiling. “ all our
tympathy was thrown away upon you."
He inclined his head.
“ Exactly." he said. " I found. the next

Eulslic Morton never came to Chanting~

HOW SWIMMING IS TAUGII'I‘.
DI.- uud Boys Will thtle Couldcnce—
(:IrII the Readies! I. Learn.
“ It has often struck me as singular.“ said
I swimming teacher, “ that the majority of
people who begin to take swimming lessons
imagine that they will never be able to

mers we have are little girls and ladies. Of
course. they don‘t possmss a man‘s strength
and endurance. but they seem to under!
stand what thcy have to do and pcrscvcrc
until the purpose is accomplished. The
average boy and youth will insist upon re-
maining in the watcr longer than is bent)-
dcial—very few of them realize that ten
minutes in the water is in the majority of
cases a far better tiinc to produce a vigorous
reaction than a half hour. On a warm day.
however. a person is very much temptcd to
remain in longer than is good for him.“
“ What causes this lack of confidencc in
so many persons ‘3“ was asked.
“ It is rather dittlcult to explain.“ was the
reply. “ You can take a dozen boys and
let them to studying languages or mathe-
rnatica, or in learning a new physical cxcr:

" Years 3 why it dimsn‘t take even months

is the way we touch." and. leading the way
to the tank. the instructor explained how
the motion with the hands and tent were
first taught. in the antc~room. “ The pupil
is placed in an apparatus.“ said he. " which
.vupports his body and gives his arms and
legs I frcc swing. Then the teacher counts
slowly. one.' two. three. until the learner
can kick out like a frog at regular intervals.
After that he. is placed in the tank. and his
head kept above wator with a band under
the arms. held in place by a rope attached
to the ceiling. When the motion has been
acquired the band is taken oil. and the first
thing the pupil does is to gulp in a month-
