It Is n maxim of some sen captains
that It Is better for sailors not to know
how to swim. They will take fewer
chances If they know that they will bo
helpless In the water. The authorities
of Amherst college have a different be
lief as to the desirability of knowing
how to swim. They have made swim
ming one of the compulsory studies at
Amherst. This college was tho tlrst to
establish compulsory gymnasium work,
nml all other colleges In this country
now require that. Will swimming also
become tho rule In the colleger? Tho
theory that men will avoid danger of
drowning If they do not know bow to
swim does not seem to be supported by
the facts. Only a small proportion of
BOO deaths from drowning tho past sum
mer were duo to fooltmrdluess of swim
mers. Waders and bathers getting be
yond their depth, people who rooked tho
bout or were caught In storms, Usher
men who fell In, all together mnke up
h long roll of portxms who might have
avvtl their lives by a knowledge of
wluuulng. Tho advantages of swim

Prof. L. II. Unlley, of thu Agricultural
College of Cornell University, has asked
a hundred and Ilfty students who were
bred on the farm and do not Intend to
return why they seek occupation else
where. He has also asked seventy
town-bred students who Intend to be
farmers, and two hundred farm-bred
students who Intend to return, why
they choose farm life The Investiga
tion Is not Intended to show anything
about tho total migration from town to
country and from country to town. Tho
conclusion which can safely bo drawn
Is that tho argument lu conviction,
weight nud nobility of Ideals Is with
those who aro going to be farmers. The
replies of the students, some of which
Prof. Unlley quotes In tho Century Mag
azine, are marked by a line sense of
what Is worth while In life closeness
to nature, Independence nud healthful
physical labor. Tho alleged social ad
vantages desired by young men seeking
the city aro seen, by these other young
men who have tried them, to he perhaps
less helpful lu the development of char
acter than the simple relations of the
farmer with his few neighbors. Very
few of the young men who plan to be
farmers say much about making money,
whereas -10 per cent of thoso who seek
the city give the money consideration
as a principal reason. Those who like
the farm maintain that there Is a com
petence for tho good farmer, hut they
seek other things thnn lnrgo Incomes.
"I am Imprcsicd lu these replies," says
Prof, Italley, "with tho recurrence of
such Ideals as love of tho work that one
Is doing, education, study, personal In
fluence, happiness, service, home. With
these young men their business Is to bo
an affair of tho heart. We hear much
about the greed of money and power
and the great dangers that threaten
our runaway society; but I wonder
whether lu the end tho countryman will
not atlll have hold of at least one of
tho reins."

DIzzIucas, or vertigo scientific writ
ers sometimes try to distinguish In
sense between thee two words, but
prnetlcally, In popular usage, they
mean tho samo thing Is a disturbance
of relation to the outside world, a loss
of tho sense of equilibrium. There Ib
more or less Inability to walk straight,
or even to stand still, nud often there
Is niuisen followed by vomiting.
Vertigo Is duo to n disturbance,
either actual or rellex, of tho nervous
"center of equilibrium" In tho back
part of tho brain, or In tho seml-clrcu-lr
canals In the ear, In which tho ter
minations of tho nerves coming from
tho coutcr of equilibrium nro distrib
uted. For tho most pnrt, vertigo Is n
retlex trouble due to some Impression

necting with tho equilibrium center,

of tho enr. Thus it Is tlrnt dizziness

and of no great significance except as
a symptom of trouble elsewhere lu the

of tho eye not corrected by proper
Kinases, Wearers of spectacles can fre
quently tell when a clwnge In the eye
has occurred, necessitating a corre
jwndlng change In tho glasses, by tho
coming back of theso attacks of giddi
ness, especially when tho gaze Is sud
denly moved from a near object to a
remote one or the reverse.
Vertigo Is a common symptom of dis
orders of dlgCHtlon seated either lu the
stomach or the Intestine. Tho treat
ment for this form Is, of course, to
trt?at the Indigestion or constipation.
Another more serious variety of diz
ziness depend upon disease of tho
heart or'of the blood vessels, especially
thoo of the brain.
Any disease of tho enr Is npt to bo
nssoclnted with more or less vertigo.
Tho samo Is true of tumor or other dls
