Not Sick But Lazy.

A north end man. who had been all
ing slightly for some months and had
come to think he was quite under the
weather and vas running down alto
gcther. happened to be standing by a
scale the other day where another per.
son was being weighed. The sick
mans usual weight was about one
hundred and sixty-fve, and it occurred
to him that he would find out how
much he really had. fallen Avay during
the few months Of mis- decline. With
just the slightest feeling Of dread to
learn the knth, he. mounted the scale.
w Il went-up-up-one hundred and
eighty-fse. A curious look passed
over the invalid's fece as he remarked:
Il yum! iRuess I'm getting lazy in.
stead OF sicki" lie has tsssn to walk.

Fertilization of water by Metallic Iro.

Publication of Water by Metallic Iron,
Metallic iron, in the form OF either
cas-. iron bor;ugs or steel punchings, is
placed in a cylinder so arranged that
by a SLOW rotation the iron may be con.
tinuously showered through the water,
which is being passed at a moderate
speed through the same cylinder. The
chemical action consists in great part
in the conversion OF the iron into fer
rous carbonate, through the agency Of
the earbonic acid, which partly dis
solves in the water and partly remains
suspended in the form Of dark green
turbidity. On exposure 10 air the iron
is converted into ferric hydroxiGe,
settling rapidly, carries down with i,
and oxidizes the organic matter. The
hocculent sediment permits Of rapid
and perfect filtration through a simple
sand filter. For evidence Of its success
and efficiency it is only necessary to
point TO the continued successful use o:
