SCARCITY OF WATER
In connection with this subject of
beer drinking, the fact ought to be
mentioned that drinking water is
not only scarce, and merchantable
commodity, but that it is very npala-
table, and if drank exclusively it is apt
to lead to chronic affections of the
bowels 1t is so hard that it is diff
cult to wash the hands in it with any

supply is from slow-running hydrants
on the public streets, the water for 9th
er household purposes being drained
from cisterns, which is meted out in
small quantities to the residents of the
houses. The .hydrants on tho streets
are thronged night and day by crowds
of girls and women waiting for their
turn to fill their buckets and tubs,
many Of whom make business of car

better water are being made, but it will
be two or three years before the work
