POISONED WATER.
Several Untimely Deaths and Much Mysterious Sickness Traceable
 to This Subtitle Cause.
A Few Facts and a Few Words of
 Warming.

The report on the source of the Boston water supply shows a condition of things that is absolutely appalling, but, while 1t Is made plain that the water supply comes from the drainage, of tanneries and other offensive sources, it is impossible in any report to envy full statement of the ac- tual quantity of poisonous ingredients which the water must and does contain. The 1nhibitants of Boston are unquest1on- ably taking into their systems, with every glass of water they drink, the germs of poison and disease. One family alone has had three deaths, the origin of which can not be immediate, but are none the less sure In the course of few weeks or months, loss of appetite, headache, loss of sleep, tired feelings and the thousand and one symptoms thatindicate the approach of disease are certain to be felt. But Bos- ton is not alone in this trouble. Most of the cities Of New England are afflicted in the same manner of a greater or less de- gree. The entire Connecticut valley ex- periences this difficulty. The smaller towns have water supply of more or less injurious character, while the farming community often draws it's water from wells that are simply drainageS from barns and outhouses.
 When all these things are taken into consideration, the surprise is not that there is so much sickness, but that there avoided by drinking liquors. mineral waters or any other connections, for they too frequently are often more injurious than ordinary water. The only way to avoid the evil effects is by keeping the health unimpaired. All have observed that the evil effects of poisonous water are quickly manifest in some cases and much less in others. This is owing to the fact that one person is in good health while the other is not. A man, woman or child who is vigorous, and whose body is properly toned, is the one who can easiest avoid the evils above named. A gentle stimulant to the digestive organs and faculties, a strength imparting prepara- tion a nerve building compound is what the public require, is what the people will have. This is precisely what HoptOnic is, and the great favor with which it has been and is being received clearly shows its value. Being com ed of peptoniZed beef, hops and malt (t three best known invigorants and tonIcs), it accumulates albumen in the body so completely as to most certainly counteract the first ap- breaches of disease. These facts have been fully understood by athletes for some time, and NIT. George Le Blanche. the Marine" MT. Patsey Sheppard, the celebrated trainer, and many other men who make physical development study, use it continually.
 If the inhabitants of New England de- sire to preserve their health unimpaired in spite of the severe climate, bad water and other health enemies that surround them, they must use some standard stimulant that imparts yigor while add ing strength. All heads of families, and those who value their own happiness as well as that of their friends. should give this subject the most careful attention and investigation.

Hendricks as a Lawyer and a Wit.

"Gov. Hendricks was great lawyer. His reputation as young lawyer at Shelbyville made him a member of the Legislature, and he made much money at his law practice. He could make a jury believe he was taking each of them into his confidence, and he was so polite in his utterances and understood human nature so well that he made good ad- vocate. He was very well read in the law, and had good library. He was a hard student and he was methodica1 in his work. He had lectured some, but don't think he wsM a success at that. He lacked the element of making crowd laugh. He once said in regard to this: I can't be funny. It is not in me to be funny. cannot even repeat joke acceptably. I tried it once in the campaign for Governor with Henry S. Lane. He told two or three capital anecdotes which got pretty well by heart, and thought could turn the tables against him by telling them at our next joint debate. Somehow they were not taking The people did not laugh and when he got up to answer me he made more fun of my using his jokes than the jokes themselves ever provoked. I have not tried to be funny since' "-T Core spondent Cleveland Leader
