WATER AND ITS DANGERS.

Precautions Every Householder Should
Take to Protect Her Family
Primitive man may not have enjoyed the
luxury or palaces, railroads, aesthetic
civilization or political strife, hut he Ger
tainly drank pure water He did not have
TO pay big taxes for the privilege of having
it carried through lead pipes from streams
polluted by house and barn waste, nor did
he have to bonit. Lucky, indeed. was primi-
tive man. ard lucky to-day the housewife
who knows her drinking water comes
straight from a pure crystal spring. safe in
the depths of some woodland. untouched
by the yaRdaiistic hand OF progress. Such
water was meant by that fIrst great santa
rian, HippCCrates, when be named pure
water as the first of the three requisites OF
long life
Nineteenth century advantages are ter
ribly offset by the vitiated fluid we drink.
There is scarcely a city throughout the world
that can boast Of an absolutely pure supply.
As for instance, London is supplied by two
grossly polluted streams, but scientific
filtration makes it almost harmless.
The United States has about a tenth as
much money invested in waterwO OrkS as IN
railroads. A good commentary upon the
great Importance OF water supply and its
attendant dangers.
Biology has made ii very clear that there
there are several very serious diseases CON
traCted only through polluted water. Ty-
phoid, which kills about 80, ,OG0 people
every year in the United States, stands first
as one TO be dreaded Unlike cholera. an
other water disease, which asserts itself
quickly and deadly, and moves like a plague,
typhoid deCeiyeS by its inCipiency, working
its deadly way unnoticed sometimes for
weeks before the victim is aware of its
actual presence
Next to such decisive action as the typhoid
microbe eXerts upon the physical forces,
come those other less fatal but quite impOr-
tant maladies known as ''enteriC disorders"
These are invariably the direct result OF
contaminated water. They make them
I selves evident by Indigestion, nausea, flat
ulency, diaTrhOea, and even lead to dys-
I enteFy. and more prolonged troubles. All
( sorts OF causes are ascFibed by those who do
| not consider drinking water as at all dan
! gerOus. Because the water looks clear and
! has osnel or sediment, it is believed to
| be all right, ,whereaSthOSe points are scarcely
/ of ahy value as designating purity.

France is conducted on lines parallel to
those of the United States, its nobility is
merely an echo OF former times. The noble
man has no privileges that the ordinary cit
izen cannot enjoy; his title has no official
recognition; his grandeur is empty. But he
has a title. and charming New York girl
with fifteen millions has just married it.
MISS LEITER's GOOD PROSPECTS.
Another Washington girl famed as beauty
the world over is about to take similar step
in the recently announced engagement of
Miss Mary Letter, daughter Of the Chicago
millionaire, to the Hon G.. Curzon, NJ. p,
eldest son of Lord Scarsdale, of England.
When Mr. Curzon becomes Lord ScarSdaie
his wife will enjoy privileges which French
countess is denied. A marriage with an
English nobleman means something. His
wife can present properly accredited friends
at court and has social standing tho world
over.
So much for the glory of it. Now comes
the other SIDE
When John W. Mackay's step-daughter
married the Prince Colonna it was thought
to be a great match. As tne Princess Co.
lonna the American girl had social honors
showered upon her at every court in Europe.
But the prince was a terrific gambler. The
enormous allowance generously made by Mr..
Mackay to the couple was spent before 1t was
received DeDtS accumulated IL lerrlnc
rate. Time after time they were paid by
Mr.. Mackay upoR promises OF reform made
by the prince. At last the almost limitless
patience OF the millionaire became exhausted;
the wife could stand the ill-usage no longer,
and the separation, which created such
sensation about year ago, occurred. With
her children, the princess, attended by her
brother, ned TO this country, and is now in
California. The announcement OF divorce
may be made any day.
MRS. BURKE-RoCHE's UNHAPPY TIME

Work. one Of the best known OF New York's
big millionaire's, married the Irish gentleman
with the hyphenated name some ten years
ago. He is the eldest son of lord. and in
the ordinary course of nature will some day
inherit the title. 1t may have been the pros
| pectiye title that had something to do with
! the marriage, as Miss Work was very am
bilious young lady. Four years of married
! life with the future nobleman showed the
American girl that her happiness depended
upon separation. She came to this country
