The New English Lutheran Church.

The erection of the English Lutheran Church,
at the corner of Pennsylvania and Walnut
Streets is attracting much interest among those
that pass up and down Pennsylvania street, aud
have for ten years past looked upon the board
covered foundation, the deep excava ton, and
the blank wall of the chapel looming up in the
rear. 1t was an eye-sore; a daily reminder of
the panic The walls of the new structure are
now almost halfway up. and one has sugges-
ton of the completed building. There will be

There is scarcely better foundation in the city.
1t has been reprinted, outside and in

a fine cut-stone water-table, and a
wide base-line of eut-ston running
across the front above this. There are twelve
old English buttresses, and the weatherings that

lecture of this city. The upper one is a sort of

Haryest-Home Festivals at Mayflower and
Central Universalist Churches.
The harvest home festival given by the Sum
ay-school of Mayfower Congregational Church
last evening was largely attended. 1t was a
very creditable entertainment. The church
could not hold all who desired admission The
room was oddly, though handsomely decorated
On the pulpit was erected pyramid of ri pened
vegetables and grain and on the top was placed
huge pumpkin All the exercises except a
short address were by the members of the Sun
day-schooi. They consisted of songs and recita-
tons appropriate to the occasion, and all were
rendered with great efficiency. The festival
closed with short address by Rev. n. A. Hyde
in which he spoke of the many i'm portant lessons
there were to be derived from a study of the
grain ready to be harvested. He drew a happy
comparison between the golden grain ready for
the reaper, and human being, who had attained
a ripe old age ready for the reaper Death and
who could look back with happy thoughts upon
life well spent. Turning from this traiu of
thought he paid glowing tribute to the profes
sion Of farming. and urged that it was the place
to raise boys. Residents of cities who had boys
growing up cannot do better than apprentice
them to some good, kind -hearted farmer for a
few years. 1t will make a man of them every
time. The song America" was sung. and the
festival adjourned.

The New Policy of the Equitable Life AS

The Equitable advertises new form of pol
icy-"The Free Tortine" 1t is said to combine
all the benefits which can properly be united in
one policy Itretains all the advantages which
have made Tontine assurance so popular. It
has surrender value in paid-up assurance after
three years, which some of the older forms OF
Tontine policy do not grant. All restrictions,
as to travel. residence and occupation are swept
away, at the end of the first year; the policy
becomes absolutely incontestable at the end OF
the second year, and not, as heretofore, at the
end of the third. These policies are made pay
able Immediately upon the death of the assured,
and all unnecessary technicalities and confusing
conditions have been expunged from the agree
ment
1t would seem that this policy is worthy OF
the attention of those looking for life insurance,
for its claims to popularity are certainly at
tractiye aud new.

The announcement of the service of song at

attract audience that filed every ses6. and

Henry G. Rogers as organist Last

While the local campaign thus far has not
developed any great amount of enthusiasm, the
people have shown thoughtful and earnest in

who have any regard for their opipion are wary
about expressing it, The shifting forces, they
say, have not gone into line and it is difficult to

are those who think they know, and yet this
information is hardly worth the noting down.
1t is common practice of the Democrats to
claim everything in sight, and the present cam

mittee rooms directing schemes and methods
with an autocratic power. No one questions it.
Sim says go, and the candidate goes. Outwardly
he is confident. but with his special advisers
around him he enters into the dangers of de-

control elections. A Democrat remarked exult-
ingly, yesterday, while taking Coy view of the
situation: MY party is one that goes for the
spoils. 1t is essentially an organization to get

PERFECTLY PURE WATER.
II Rarely Exists In Nature-How Nature
Purifies-Various Tests.


Purifies-yarious Tests.
I''Gath" in Cincinnati Enquirerl
Perfectly pure water rarely exists in
nature. 1t is believed that at some
places. notably at the water of some
springs near Darjeeling, on the eastern
hImalayas, absolute purity of water
does exist from the reason
that chemical science fails at
present to detect any impu-
rity in it, and that it is sufficiently pure
for all Photographic purposes without
distlllatlon. Even rainwater is not de-
livered in a perfectly pure state, as it
carries with it the impurities and parti-
cles OF dust, carbon, insects, organisms,
fumes, ETC., existing III the air. Nomi-
nally pure portable water may be manu-
factured by the process of distillation
and aerated to make it palatabIe, but
even then it is liable to impurity from
contact during these processes. Pure
water, like the perfect human being, is
an idealism to which We may tend, but
cannot reach.
Spring water is naturally considesed
superior for drinking purposes to any
water obtained from surface collection,
from open river channels, reservoirs or
lakes. 1t has undergone a process of
natural filtration in the geologic strata
through which it has permeated, and at
the source is free from the liability to
contamination from which river water
and lake water suffer. "As a rule,
spring water is bright, sparkling and
well aerated, or, as ladies say, it looks
pretty; such test, however, is utterly
valueless, as pretty water is sometimes
deadly, and often unwholesome
The principle of the nearer the
source, the purer the WATER may be
mainly true, but it is not absolutely cor
rect. The LOW of water along a course
of open channel often enables its origi-
nal inorganic impurities to be deposited,
or partially neutraliZed, while if any Or
ganic impurity is introduced in such
course, this may be partly oxidized by
the soil of the channel during flow in o
certain distance from the place of con-
tamination.
In dealing with strange drinking
water, it is safe process 10 mix some
clean earth with it, to stir it up and
render it as muddy as possible, and
then allow it to settle and clarity itself
before using it for drinking In this pro-
cess one provides home for, or conyen-
iently Localities, large proportion of
the organisms and animalcules that
may possibly have been roaming in the
water.
A pure, soft taste mot exactly sweet,
though often SO termed, is almost an
indispensable accompaniment to whole
some water
The hardness Of water may be Judged
by the soap test by pouring in an al
coholic solution of soap, and noticing
the amount of it curded, or by the
amount of lathes yielded in it by soap
in comparison with that afforded by the
same amount of soap in water of ap-
proximately known hardness.
Hardness may be reduced by half
that is, by 50 per cent.-by filtration
through spongy iron; in addition, the
water is cleansed by the removal of a
large proportion of the organic carbon
and organic nitrogen, nitrites and nj
trates.
