A few years ago, where now are many
elegant homes. besu.ified By all the in
geuuity OF art, aided by the bountiful
hand of nature; surrounded by stately
forest Of pines, FRS and cedara
whose solemn silence seemed To forbid
tho whispering of the zephyrs az they
passed, and whose giant forms outlined
against the sky appeared like a mighty
army standing gnard, with its placid
bosom mirroring the gorgeous tints Of a
summer sunset, may, more beautiful
than any picture ever made by artists
hand, lake Union. To one who Is sus-
ceptible to tho charms Of nature in her
own simple adornment such a s"ene il
impressive beyond description. But
civilization demands that the wild neg
ligence Of this mother Of Us all shall be
subjected and snbdued into fit habita-
tons for the children of men. and
although to true artist this wo-k only
spoils the picture, yet the necessities Of
life will not humor tho refined tastes
and conceptions Of genius, therefore
genius prepares to accept the situation
and make the best Of IL, aud we find
the strength Of nature now guided and
directed by tho band of man, and H.
stead Of the wild and profuse luxuriancs
that formerly fringed this beautiful
lake, We now see fine houses, surrounded
by tasty walks and drives, borders and
beds OF flowers. clusters Of ornamental
shrubs. and gardens Of delicious fruits.
To add life TO the fair scene, beautiful
women and children animate these
homes with their presence, showing that
prosperity and happiness are living
together there, and now, where only
few years ago the shadowy flight OF a
bird was reflected in those CLASSY waters,
graceful boats, gnided by the fair hands
OF youth, while oars ripple the water,
glad voices ripple tho air, with a music
no free from care that tho listener finds
wish In his heart that no might linger
forever in that delightful spot. Just
across to tho other shore of the lake,
opposite to the pleasant scene il the
beginning OF an improvement which
will excel in vaiue as a place for resi-
dence, any place yet offered to seekers
Of suburban homes. No pisco catches
tbs morning suns warm beams sooner
than this, and no place holds later 10
tho golden halo of the days decline
than this, while full view VI the grand
panorama Of rich colors spread upon
tho water canvas Of the lake by the
mast or hand Ut sun taught cloud
cannot be imagined. nor seen 10 better
advantage than from this. This de.
li2htful place In tho Lake Union Addi-
ton to the city Of Seattle. Those wish
ing to know moro about this beautiful
place, or to make purchases In that
vicinity, should call at once upon the
reai estate firm Of George, Bigelow 4
Co. This land ID held by honest men
for an honest purpose, and tho lots co
for their intrinsic value. No sham sales
nor cappers to appear with their large
offers while strangers arc talking OF
buying.

The Knot and the Mile.

The ''knot" and the "mile" are terms
often used INTERCHANGEABLE, but enormously
so. The fact is that mile is less than
eighty-seven per cent. of knot. Three
and one-half miles are equal, within very
small fraction, to three knots. The knot
is 6,O82,60 feet in length. The statute
mile is $3.50 feet. The result of the diff
ference is that the speed in miles per hour
is always considerably larger than when
stated in knots, and if a person forgets this
and states a speed at so many knots, when
it is really so many miles, he may be giving
figures verging on the incredible. When
we hear parties say that such a vessel is
capable of making twenty knots per hour,
we usually take the statement with very
large grain of salt, for twenty knots is 23.04
miles per hour, a speed which very few
vessels have made, and it is doubted by
some who have the best opportunity for
making actual measurements whether any
vessel has made twenty-five miles in sixty
minutes. 1t has been said that some of the
English torpedo boats have made as high
as twenty-four or twenty-six knots. Twen-
ty-four knots are over twenty-seven and a
half miles per hour, and twenty-five knots
are upward of twenty-eight and three-quar-
ter miles per hour, distances that are in
credible.
The Democratic advocate., 1883-08-04
Idleness.

Many young people think that an idle
life must be pleasant one; but there are
none who enjoy so little, and are such bur-
dens to themselves, as those who have
nothing to do. Those who are obliged to
work hard all day enjoy their short periods
of rest and recreation SO much that they
are apt to think if their whole lives were
spent in rest and recreation it would be the
most pleasant of all. But this is sad
mistake, as they would soon find out if
they made trial of the life they think so
agreeable. One who is never busy can
never enjoy rest; for it implies relief
from previous labor, and if our whole time
were spent in amusing ourselves, we should
find it more wearisome than the hardest
DAYS work. Recreation is onl y valuable
as it unbends us; the idle can know nothing
of it. Many people leave off business and
settle down to life of enjoyment; but
they generally find that they are not nearly
so happy as they were before, and they are
often glad to return to their old occupation
to escape the miseries of Incidence.
The Democratic advocate., 1883-08-04
Hints About Water.

No water that has stood in open vessels
during the night should be used for drink
ing or cooking. By exposure to the air it
has lost its ''eration,' and has absorbed
many of the dust germs floating in the
apartment IF convenience requires water
to be kept in vessels for several hours be-
fore use, it should be covered, unless the
vessels are tight, Wherever it is practi-
cable all distributing reservoirs should be
covered Filtering adds to the purity of
water. Drinking water should never be
taken from lakes or rivers on a low level.
Surface water, or water in lakes, pools or
rivers which receive the surface wash,
should be avoided as much as possible.
Do not drink much water at time More
than two tumblerfulls should not be taken
at meal. Do not drink between meals
unless to quench thirst, as excess of water
weakens the gastric juice and Oyerworks
the kidneys. Excessive potations, whether
of water or other fluid, relax the stomach,
impair its secretions and paralyze its move
ments BY drinking little at time all
