Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 40, Number 98, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 18 August 1908 — Don’ts for Bathers, [ARTICLE]

Don’ts for Bathers,

Some “don’ts for bathers. ' Don’t go into the water at all if your heart is weak, or if of an appopletic tendency. " Don’t go in too soon after eating, and don’t launch yourself Into the bosom of the water with a cargo of alcohol aboard. Don’t forget to wet your head first Don’t get too strong, and don’t attempt top much. Don’t stay in too long, and don’t forget the motto for bathers: “It’s better to be sure than sorrow” —and remember that it Is others to whom the sorrow will come.
