On the contrary, wheD she wants to bathe she puts on a bathing cos tume, generally, and makes a break for the water with all the enthusi asm of a neophyte, dashes through the waves with all the confidence of a duck, spuits like a porpoise, and then floats around like a big pond lily. Moreover, she is as graceful in the water as a baby elephant. The only trouble is, that she doesn’ t know what to do with her hands and feet when she tries to swim, and that she insists on keeping her month open, probably with the charitable intention of affording the poor old ocean an outlet for its superfluous waters. - * For real good bargains, go to Nosler’s drug store in this place He is selling goods extremely cheap, aud. keeps nothing but the best. tf.
