But this can only be looked upon OF course
as temporary remedy, as boiled water Is
not healthy If taken for long period.
This can be overcome by taking IL In the
form OF weak tea, toast and water, oaiiey-
water, lemonade, ETC. Boiled water does
not agree with everyone, however, anu
people with incompetent livers are very
easily upset in this way and Will very
soon arrive at painful experiences, not
generally known outside the medicai pro-
fession. The water can also be Uttered.
But no matter how efficient hitter may
can never be depended on to purify
water which is contaminated with sewage
or contains the germs ofinfectious disease.
"A cheap and useful filter can be had Dy
cutting the bottom of u large appolinarus
bottle suspending it everted on a peg ana
and filling the neck with clean absorbent
cotton, which must he change often.
IL should be covered well of course and
the water allowed to flow into q suitable
vessel. The only proper remedy against
our poisonous drinking water Is, however,
to make the supply wholesome This
can always be done, If the people only de-
mand IL with intelligent and untiring
persistence. But many citizens will say,
what can we do about il Scientific men
are not always invited to advise in these
matters, and many professional poiiti-
clans look upon such questions with an
eye TO gain or notoriety. AS the PawtuXet
river is now, ii is chiefly sewage carrier
of the mills and villages along its bord-
ers, and as IL flows sluggishly through
rich alluvial lands is unaerated, ana con-
tains large amounts of dissolved and sus-
pended solids, il is highly dangerous to
the health and life of those who depend
upon il for drinking water. During the
past months ravages of influenza and
other diseases. the villages along the Paw
tuXet have been prostrated with sickness
and many deaths have occurred.
IL is certainly a gloomy fact TO know
that in our drinking water are suspended
the excreta of all these sick people.
Is il not about time to do something in
the matter?

occasion of this kind it did him good to be

NJ, Cook, who in an interesting address
called himself the father of the associa
ton" Capt. Wilmarth, president of the
Central Falls Veteran Association, told
of the growth of the association which he
represented. He thought that this New
England League of Veteran Firemen
would become so widesdread in its influ-
ence that national league would be
formed.

sentcd the Providence association with a
handsome framed picture of the old Cen
trail Falls machine

Emjgrants have gone 10 New Zealand
for the last half century because they were
told that they could make living by
farming or keeping sheep, by cottage hus-
bandry, coal or gold mining, or other
forms of labor. They have not been disap-
pointed The resources of the colony are
as varied rs its scenery, and partly for the
same reason. II extends ], 200 miles from
the cold south bordering on antarctic seas
to the warm north, and thus has every
kind of pleasant climate, through all the
ranges of temperate and subtropical.
When the native of another country sees
its unequaled capabilities for tillage and
pasturage his instructive patriotism makes
him almost thankful that 10 is not any
bigger, like the French marshal, whose
comment on the British infantry, 1.-THE
best in the world, sire. but luckily few ir
number" is so often repeated in England.
II New Zealand were as large as Australia
it would supply the English market, and
Canada and the United States could hardly
be expected TO be grateful. Its average
yield of wheat is twenty-six bushels to the
acre. 1t is better adapted for raising the
best kinds of wool and mutton than even
New South Wales, which truthfully boasts
OF having more sheep per capita than any
other country under the sun; but then its
runs and paddocks are not so vast, or so
capable of indefinite expansion.
. The amount of business done by its hand
full of people-less than two-thirds of q
million-is astonishing. For the last few
years the exports averaged sixty dollars per
head, and for the year ending June 30, 1889,
they had increased about eight millions
over the previous year. The imports are
nearly as large. No wonder that its ports
are crowded with shipping.-G. M. Grant,

The Perfect Man.

Rev. NJ. II. Savage, of Boston, gives his
idea of the perfect man. He will be:
A perfect animal.
A trained, clear seeing, unbiased intel
lect whose one thirst is for truth
A taste that sees and appreciates all
beauty.
A heart that loves all lovely things.
a sympathetic beneficence that would
have all men lifted 10 the highest.
A soul or spirit that recognizes kinshir
with the Eternal Spirit and ever aspires TO
ward fuller spiritual life
These all blend in one being, not that b,
has these things, but is these. Woman
kind.

TWELVE THOUSAND. KILLED
That IS the Story Of Volcanic Eruption
on the Island Of sangis.

a London special of yesterday says:
The steamer Catterthun, which has ar
rived at Sidney, Ms. W., reports that
when she touched at the island of Tim
or there was rumor current that the
Island OF Sangis in the Malay archipela-
go had been destroyed by a volcanic
eruption and that the whole population,
comprising $4,000, had perished. The
Catterthun steamed for Miles through a
mass of volcanic debris.
A native from the Talantz islands.who
was at San Angelim four weeks ago.
brought remarkable story that several
other natives had just returned from
voyage. They had intended to land on
the island but were prevented by the
sight OF mountains belching forth smoke
and lire. They reported ssthat the whole
island was on fire. The water along
the coast was covered, they said, with
half burned wreckage, pieces of houses
and charred bodies. The whole popula-
ton, estimated at $4,000, seemed to
have been swept into the sea or burned.
as not living soul was to be seen.
Streams of lava were still flowing to-
ward the shore, showing that the activi-
ty OF the volcano had not abated.
The steamship Catterburn brought a
similar story into port with her yester-
day Near sangis, her captain said, she
passed through miles of debris dissimilar
from anything he had seen at sea. Posts
and sides OF huts were mingled with
such utensils as the natives of the Phil
hpfines use in cooking. Many unre-
cognizable objects, resembling charred
human trunks, were also seen. Articles
OF head dress in the wreckage were iden-
titled by sailor, who had lived in the
philippines, as belonging to the natives.
The vessel was passing through the
wreckage from 10 a. m. to 1890 p. m.
These reports are partially credited here
although they are believed to be exag-
gerated. The formatian of sangis is vol
canic and several small craters near the
centor of the island are known to have
threatened activity during the last ten
months.

Mr.. Donnelly has national reputation

the acknowledged national leader of the

consented to meet Mr.. cCleary in de-

a Woman Takes Poison,

Last Wednesday in the town Of West
Newton near Fairfax married woman,
named Mrs. VIM. Dickmeyer, ended her
life by taking poison. The dose consis-
ted IN two teaspoonsful Of paris green and
the agony lasted for several hours before
It resulted in death. She had been trou-
3bled with melancholy it seems, during
the past few years and her life was far
from happy one. To New Ulm reo-
pie she will be best known by her mai
den name of Sophie Stark. For several
years she worked at the home Of August
Schell.
