COOLED WITHOUT ICE.
Water ETapOTated in the Ola Is Very
Refreshing.

Used by the Pueblo Indians-Each of
These Earthern Jars Is Said to Be
Equal to Three or For- Pounds of
Ice for Cooling Purposes-Wate
Cooled in Them More Refreshing
Than Ice Cream Soda.
From the Washington Post.
OfcOurse every one likes ice water. 1t
is an American habit, and, periodically
speaking all American habits are good.
But if people only knew it, there are bet
ter ways of keeping water cool than put
ting ice in it. And water that is cool
without being cold Is twice as cooling to
the drinker, to say nothing of being sew
eral times as good for the stomach into
which it is put.
One Of the simplest ways of cooling
water is by evaporation. The Pueblo In
dian of our own southwest, with his IN
tutored mind, discovered this fact hun
dreds of years ago. and has been using
the discovery in his quiet, unobtrusive
way ever since, while we of the higher
civilization have been buying ice, depict
ing our pockets and spelling our diges-
tion at the same time.
One of the most interes ting collections
in the National Museum is that of the
Pueblo pottery, where there are hundreds
if not thousands of earthenware vessels
of all sorts and sizes, and each one of
them equal to three or four pounds of ice
for cooling purposes every day in the
summer.
The Pueblo Indians never discovered the
art of glazing pottery. and the result is
that all their earthenware is more or less
porous and when filled with water a b.
serbs it sponge like, keeping the outside
always moist This moisture evaporating
cools the vessel and the water it contains,
just as one can feel the GOODNESS that
comes from breeze on the body when
wet with perspiration' In the dry air of
the southwest, where the Pueblo Indian
finds his home this evaporation is very
great and the result is that the pottery
"Ollas" are used by whites, Indians, and
Mexicaps alike to hold cool drinking wa
ter.

southwest cannot fail to recollect the old
brownish buffcolored ola with It's curl
Gus Indian decorations in conventional
lied pictures of birds, beasts and fish that
was sure to be found in the fork of dry
cottonwood branch standing just inside
the door with yellyw calabash, or if in
a very modern house, tin cup hanging
from a nail on the door jamb. And water
from it after long, dusty ride in the
broiling sun tasted many times better
than the coolest ice cream soda he ever
paid ten cents for in the states 1t may
have been what Col. Tom Ochiltree terms
the large, elegant thirst" that added to
the supposed virtues of the ella as a water
cooler, but the scientists OF the National
Museum will tell you that the cooling
qualities of the porous pottery are quite
as real as imaginary

NEW PREACHING IDEA.
The Organ Made TO DO Most of the Minis
ter's Work.

LITTLE ROCK. ARK, January %
Rev. r. j. Shelton. Of this city. has intro
duced new feature in preaching. 1t is
the art Of making the organist do the
praying and the principal part Of the
preaching. Mr., Shelton was for many
wears recognized as one Of the ablest pull
nil orators in the State. and was for
years pastor Of the Firsh Christian Church
Of this city lie has for some time past
been preaching to an independent congre~
cation. and last night created a sensation
i'm his church.
His text was. "The Law Of Vibration,
or How Jesus Healed the Sick" Aftet
reading a part Of the Gospel Of ST. John.
he caused "A ripple OF astonishment by an
nouncing that the organst would pray.
while each member OF the congregation
would pray I'm his or her own way. lie
illustrated the law of vibration as a not
unusual principle. controlling all human
movements in the struggle Of America for
independence.
"Our fathers had to contend against
Great Britain" 0he organjst played God
Save the Que"n"D at is such vibrations
as these our fathers had 90 meet" said
the preacher "But now listen" Yankee
Doodle" was played by the organist) The
speaker then illustrated "the late unpleas-
antncss' by calling for Dixie" and as
the organ notes OF this air vibratcd
through the hall everybody was delighted.
Here the preacher made a telling stroke
by throwing in a discord. and by saying
the South was defeated because Yankee
Doodle was on the other side" He then
called for another strain of Yankee Doo-
die" and clashcd the two together, and
said " Yankee Doodle represents human
liberty and Dixie was the champion Of
human slavery"
Al this point several gentlemen left tlr
hall one of them rcmarking Lets not
listen 10 any more Of this stuff"
At the close Of the sermon tle organist
played Home, Sweet Home"
