How Cool Water.

At this season of the year cool drought
of water is luxury which we may enjoy
with "A little care. BY the following method,
simple and inexpensive, water may be
kept almost as cold as ice. Let the Jar,
pitcher or vessel used for water, be sur
rounded with one or more folds of coarse
cotton, to be constantly wet; the evapora-
ton Of the water will carry off the heat
from the inside, and reduce it to Il low tenn
perature. In India and tropical countries,
where ice cannot be procured, this expedi
ent is common Let every mechanic ano
laborer have at the place Of his work two
pitchers thus provided, aud with lids ol
covers, one TO contain fresh water for the
evaporation, and he can always have a sup,
ply of fresh water in warm weather. Any
one may test this by dipping finger in wa
ter and holding it in the air on II warm day;
after doing this three or four times he will
find his finger uncomiortabiy cool Thi,
plan will save the bill for ice besides being
more healthful. The free use of ice water
produces arrangement of the internal or
gans, which, we conceive, is due to pro
perty of the water independent of its cold
ness. Maine Farmer.

No Use for TrOwsers.

On the morning of the metoric shower,
in 1889, old Peyton Roberts, who intended
making an early start to his work, got up in
the midst Of the display. On going to his
door, he saw, with amazcment, the sky lit
up with the falling meteors, and he conclu-
ded at once the world was on fire, and that
the day of judgment had come He stood
for moment gazing in speeches. terror at
the scene, and then with yell of horror
sprang out of the door into the yard right
into the midst of the falling stars, and there
in his efforts to dodge them, he commenced
n series of ground tumbling that would have
done honor to a rope dancer His wife,
being awakened in the meantime, and see
ing Peyton jumping and skipping about the
yard, bawlcd out to him to know "What in
the name OF common sense he was doin out
thar, doncin' around without his clothes
on, But Peyton heard not. The judg
mcnt, and long black accounts he would
have to settle, made him needless of all ter
