Sea-Bath ingi People Who spend their holidays at the sea-shore, are very likely to exnlt in their opportunities for seabathing, as if that exercise were lecessarily an unmixed physical pri■itege. If they are "run down" physically they say that the ocean bbthinjr will "pick them up." Now it may or it may not be. It is an exercise more prone to gross misuse than almost any other form. Swimming, especially swimming in rough water, is work for athletes, and may very easily be disastrous to *he feeble os the unaccustomed. It is difficult to see why a person who takes little or no exercise through the rest of the year should expect nothing but good to resuk from rushing into one of the most exacting forms of exercise there is—a form which has to be indulged in against a strong! resistant element. It is true that every one should learn to swim, first as a precaution, and second because swimming is one of the most useful of health-giving pursuits in that it brings into play every muscle of the body, and also is generally indulged in in the open air and sunshine, to say nothing of the ttonic effects of the salt water itsell'. Anyone of ordinary sense should be able to judge by his own sensations whether he is over-doing things or not. If alter the morning swim a 'l>ather feels languid, inert, listless he may rest assured that his dip has done him harm and not good. Again when a girl comes down to the beach in her bathing suit, pink and fresh and pretty, and then • comes out ot the water with a irotUed skin and blue lips, and with a chilly sensation down her spine, the may l>e certain that she is harming herself. It is ridiculous to conclude that because a vigorous young athlete, in good training the year round, can take his three swims a day with apparent benefit, that the ordinary person can do likewise. On the i<>> trary it is safe to say that ten minutes in the water and (ifty to seventy-five strokes will be a u lha , dertako.-N.Z. Times HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT AND PILLS. Indisputable remedies.
