Bacteria Not to Be Feared.

Every one should understand that of all
the myriads of bacteria about US in earth
and air and water, the great majority are
harmless. With very few exceptions the
bacteria which can do us harm are those,
and those alone, which come from the
bodies of men and animals afflicted with
disease. So far water is concerned-and
the same applies to ice-it is only sewage
pollution or stagnant filth which we have
to fear and shun. Good, pure, uncontami-
mated water, and ice made from such wa
ter either by nature or by man, are en-
tirely wholesome, and they are not made
more wholesome by distillation or other
purifying procedure-they are not more
wholesome when germ free.
So in the manufacture of ice. if the water
which is used be contaminated and impure,
the preliminary distillation is of primary
Importance for the salubrity of the ice;
but if the water be pure, the Installation is
only valuable for the technical purpose of
removing the dissolved air.
In point of fact, most of the artificial ice
which the writer has eXamined-and there
have been many and abundant samples
from various sources collected, and for n
period of many months-does contain bac-
terra in varying numbers. The prelimi-
nary distillation, if carefully done, destroys
any disease producing germ forms which
might be present in the water used. But
a certain number of the more hardy harm
less forms may be carried bodily with the
steam into the condensers.-T. Mitchell
Pruden in Harpers.

Good looks are more than skin deep,

A Wonderful Machine:

There is no doubt that man is a fine
mechanism, but like every other ma
chine he wears ont by friction. 1t is
said that he is born again every two or
three years. His body is virtually re-
made from food. To retard this making
over is radically wrong, as man loses
so much vitality in the delayed process
that it takes long time to recuperate.
The process of making anew is so accele-
rated by purging with Brsndreth's Pills,
that new man, as it were. may be made
in TWO or three months, and the change
in the mechanism is such that the worn
out part is replaced by the new without
the usual running down of the entire
machine. You don't have to stop for
repairs. Purge away with Brand reth' s
Pills the old, diseased. worn-out body.
They are purely vegetable. absolutely
harmless, and safe to take at any time.

A GREAT REMEDY.

An opiate will relieve pain
but it will not cure disease; this
is fact admitted by every ply
stefan. 1t is generally suppos-
ed that a cough remedy must
contain an opiate; this. howev-
er, is not only unnecessary, but
often times it is positively ipju-
rioue. Reid's German Cough
and Kidney Cure contains no
opigtes. In order to assure the
public on this point, we present
below the testimony of Mr..
Charles B. Allaire. the head of
the house of Allaire, Wood
ward & Co., pharmacists and
drug millers, of Peoria. Mr.. AL
lafre is a che mist of recognized
ability and auth ofity; he is a
gentleman of wealth aud ipf1u-
ence, and he stands high not
only in his profession, but as a
business man and citizen. He
Gays; " l am acquainted with
the formula of keid's German
Cough and Kidney Cure and
know that the claim that is
made for it that it contains no
opiate or any delet-rious sub
stance is strictly true. 1t is an
exceedingly valuable remedy,
and 1 am glad to know that it
is meeting with such large
SALE" This shows that every
claim that has been made for
this great remedy can be sub

A Beetle That Makes "a ''Ticking'' Noise

The deathwatch beetle has the invariable
habit of feigning death when seized or dis
turbed. The stimulation is so persistent
that when immersed in water, or even in
alcohol, the insect remains perfectly i'm
movable, and will allow itself to be burned
alive rather than betray itself.
The larva of the insect lives in wood
work framework, old furniture, etc.,
which it gnaws in the interior without
anything outside betraying its presence.
A few weeks after it has been transformed
to the crysalis state the perfect insect
comes forth and makes its exit from the
wood by boring cylindrical hole in it,
which thereafter shows that the wood has
been attacked and is often mutilated to
such degree that it is virtually destroyed.
A smaller species of the same genus
works equal havoc not only with wood,
but with books, herbia, natural history
collections, cork, dry bread, crackers, etc.
