White, 017 Arkansas avenue, North Little Rock, about a month ago, won himself a permanent home through the part be played last Sunday in helping to save two of the White children from drowning. Although he was at first merely tolerated because the children liked to play with him, since the heroic rescue nothing has been too good for him, and ft the dog catcher molests him, he will have the whole family to fight.

The three White boys, John Barrett, aged 11 Worth, aged nine, and Alfred, aged 6, slipped away to the river late Sunday afternoon, going to the dike near the Rock Island bridge. "Let's go in suggested Worth. "Pa would whip us if he found it out, and besides you kids can't swim," protested who had learned to swim while living at Glenwood-on-the Caddo, where the Whites made their home until a year ago.

When the writer began tbe therapeu tic employment of massage, this method was generally looked uuon with more or less suspicion as being closely allied to quackery, if not absolutely irregular. In those days were many magnetic healers who cured by laying on of hands, and in New England there was a family of bone-setter who had de veloped a considerable local reputation by the peculiar manipulations which they practiced upon their patients, not infrequently to their decided detriment Thirty five years ago there were in this country few if any persons who were really skilled in massage. It was only by visiting Stockholf, Sweden, Germany and France, that it was found possible to obtain a practical knowledge of the subject Now there are skilled masseurs in every city in the country. Hot Hi ed Greek physician, made extensive use of this mode of treatment, designat tug it "unatripsis. He evidently ap-l- predated the principles of the art very well, as he diiecled that friction should be applied in the direction of tbe veins.

That he understood the effect of different mode of application is shown by the following quotation from hia works: "Friction cau relax, brace, incarnate tfleshen), ateuuate: bard braces sort, relaxes much, attenuate; and moderate, thicken." Hippocrates learned matmuge, as well as g.vmuastirs. Asclcpiades, another eminent Greek physician, held the of this art iu such esteem that-he abau doned the ue of of all sorts, relying exclusively upon massage, which he claimed effects cure by restoring to the nutritive fluids their natural, free movement. was this physician who made the discovery that sleep might be induced by gentle stroking. Plutarch tells that Julius Caesar, a century before the Christian era, had himself pinched all over daily for neuralgia. It is well kuown that Julius Caesar was subject to a severe, nervous disorder (epilepsy) and it is more than probable that his prodigious labor were only rendered possible by the aid derived from massage.

Plinv. the treat Roman naturalist. had himself rubbed for the relief of chronic asthma. Arrian recommended massage for horses and dogs, asserting that it would strengthen the render the hair soft and glossy, and clean the skin. After giving direction! for massage of the legs, abdomen and back, he directed that the treatment should be terminated in the following peculiar manner, which indicates that he understood the value of nerve-stretching, at least for dogs: "Lift her tip by the tail and give her a good stretching; let her go, and she will shake herself and show that she liked the treatment.

Celus, the most eminent of all Ro man physician, who lived at the begin, nine of the present era, waa very fa miliar with massage, and used great discretion in its application, tie recommended maniulations of the head for the relief of headache, and general ma nipulations to restore the surface circulation in fever, making this wise remark: "A patient is in a bad atate when the exterior of the body ia cold, the interior hot with thirst; but, indeed, also the only safeguard lies in rubbing."

The natives of the Sandwich Islands have, from the most ancient times, employed massage, which they term They frequently administer lomi-lomi to an exhausted swimmer while in the water, supporting him with their hands until his forces are rallied bv the manlnulations. The Maoris of New Zealand practice massage under the name of romi-romi.

Simultaneously, Grayspot, seeming to realize the danger the children were in. leaped into the water, and fastening his teeth into Alfred's clothing helped to hold him on the surface while the older brother kicked for shore. For a few moments it looked like all three of the boys would be drowned as the smaller children frantically threw their arms about rendering him almost helpless. But the oldest boy finally got his feet in bottom and drag ged his brothers ashore.

He declared that without Grayspot's assistance he probably could not have made it. By that time the father had arrived on the scene and he straightway restored circulation in the two smaller youngsters by applying a willow switch. Asked why they had not cried out when they realized their danger, Worth and Alfred both declared they were "scairt their daddy might hear them. The children had been forbidden to go near the water, and not until after the rescue did the parents learn that B. bad learned to swim at Glenwood several years ago.
