HAIM WATER AND RAIN WATIIII.—This is beyond
dispute, that many forms of disease are direct results
of the habitual um of waters impregnated with mineral
substances that are never properly eliminated from the
Items. The danger ,4 mineralization is made manifest
In the conatant endeavours of all concerned to obtain
Fere water, and the scrupulonanem with which the
percentages of organic ad mineral matters in any
particular water are noted and commented on. And
when the purest water obtainable Is obtained, it is but
rain water with t a leset contamination possible.
What eles is ths water of Loch %striae? The reason
of its purity is that It is fed from a rock which yield'
but infinitesimally of It. mineral conetitnents to the
notvent powers of water—Prom Mr. tiAirgey liAberd's

opened, and when the assistants went into the shop,
the clerk discovered his desk was broken open,
some coppers that had been kept in • bag were stolen,

disorderly manner, while en the desk were a couple
of knives with which it had been wrenched open. It
was also found that • quantity of mull silver change
and a considerable number of postage 'tempi were

about CIL It appeared that the thief must
have got in by the window over the door-
way, and made his exit by the same, and
tither in coming in or going out he knocked down
some cheese. It could not be found that any provi.
'ions were gone, money probably wag his only object,
and he succeeded in clearing the till—On Tuesday a
