the magnanimous spirit which prompt

The neWSbOy who was so permeated

was not the only one among his fellows
possessed Of the same idea. When the

newsbOy and carrier in the city to the
Sells Brothers and Forepaugh's big

they could talk Of nothing else. If

ABOUT WATCHES.
Number Sold and Quality and Style,
to be Selected From
New York Dem.


New York Dem
In this country almost everybody car
rieS a watch. Probably nine-tenths
of the men, and great numbers of
women, and many young people carry
watches. In the best trade of the city
many more watches of gold are sold
than of silver; of all the watches sold
throughout the country about % per
cent are of gold. The percentage of
gold watches is increasing.
The fashionable watch of the day is
open faced. The sale of open-faced
watches is increasing, especially in fine
watches, but it is increasing also in
watches of other grades. Of fine gold
watches sold in the city probably two
thirds are now made open-faced Of
all the watches sold in the United
States, gold and silver, probably from
quarter to a third are now made
open-faced.
The modern watch has for one of its
characteristics thinnesS. A mans watch
which is now made more especially to
wear with evening dress and is all the
time growing in favor is a plain thin,
open-faced, gold watch which takes up
but little room in the pocket Perfect in
its simplicity, this watch is at the same
time of fine workmanship and great
beauty. 1t sells at $3.50. A gold watch
not so thin nor SO finely finished. but
a very handsome modern watch and
an excellent timekeeper, by the same
makers and bearing their name can be

too, can be bought for very much less
than these prices; in fact there never
was time when watches generally
were made in such tasteful shapes O r
when they We're so good for the money.
or so cheap as now.
Taking all the grades together. the
American production of watches is
about 1000 daily; the Importation of
watches amounts to about the same
number. One might at first wonder
what becomes of all these watches. A
great number are taken UP annually
by the new buyers coming into the mar
ket for the first time, out of the con-
slant and large increase In the popula-
ton. Great as the percentage of watch
owners now is in this country. that also
Is increasing. Many immigrants buv
watches as soon as they get the money:
some men own more than one watch.
watches wear out, or their owners Law
them aside for a better watch or for
one of newer style; watches are lost
and destroyed; and when one comes to
take all these things into consideration
1t Will be seen that the great production
or watches may be in large measure
easily accounted for.

Dear blossom Of the way-side kin.
whose homely, wholesome name
Tells of a potency within
TO win thee country fame.
The sterile hillocks are thy home.
Beside the windy path;
Tne sky, pale and lonely dome,
is all thy vision hath.
Thy unobtrusive purple face
Amid the meagre grass
Greets me with remembered grace.

And !, outworn by petty care,
And vexed with trivial wrong,
l heed thy brave and joyous air
Until my heart grows strong.
A blessing from the Power crave
That moves in thee and me,
That makes thee modest, calm and brave
Me restless as the sea-
Thy simple wisdom I would gain
To heel the hurt life brings
With kindly cheer, and faith in pain.

while very few are found in the water
obtained from the middle of the lake.
IMPROVES BY KEEPING.
Water is said to be improved by
storing for time. AS there is not suf-
hclent sustenance in the water, a sort
of starvation process is carried out,
and the bacteria perish and fall to the
bottom.
The idea that freezing destroys bac-
terra Is still entertained by many. Re-
peated experiments have proved that
freezing merely renders them inactive,
and that they multiply with great ra-
pld1ty as soon as the Ice is melted and
the conditions are favorable.
Mineral springs are, as a rule, more
or less free from bacteria. This fire.
dom is attributed to the carbonic acid
gas with which the water is impreg-
mated. y
There Is no simple method of ascer-
tanning the presence of bacteria in
water. The microscope is usually en-
ployed for that purpose. There is a
ton that is sometimes used. This So
luton consists Of ten parts Of water
and the ash of one part of yeast.
TO TEST WATER.
The solution is mixed with suspected
water in a flask If the solution re-
mains clear 1t is an indication that
the water Is free from bacteria. If it
becomes subsequently turbid it means
that bacteria are present.
Although there Is no simple method
of determining the presence of impur-
tiles In water there is very simple
way of rendering it fit for use, at least
so far as bacteria are concerned. Boil
Ing will destroy them, one and all.
1t is only necessary to boil the water
five minutes, but 1t is better to boil
1t ten or even fifteen minutes when
there is reason to suspect coritamina-
ton Of serious character.
Many people believe that by mixing
an equal quantity Of wine with water
containing bacteria a harmless drink
may be made. This impression Is err
roneous. 1t is true that some bac-
terra perish in the mixture, but the ma
jority do not.
People entertaining such an idea
would better follow the Biblical in
junction and drink no longer water,
but use little wine for the stomach's
sake"

THE WATER YOU DRINK.
How to Detect Impurities.


A celebrated authority once stated
that absolutely pure water, consisting
Of chemical union with condensation
of two volumes Of hydrogen and one
oxygen, is a chemical curiosity"
The impurities of water are usually
placed under two heads, organic and
inorganic Of the first class the i'm
purities may be in the form of bac-
terra, or they may consist of particles
Of organic substances, such as decom-
posing animal or vegetable matter.
Of the latter class the chemist usual
ly finds such things as nitrates and nj
trites, free ammonia, chlorine and vari-
Gus other chemical substances. The nj
trites are usually the product of de-
composition. following the contamina-
ton of water with sewage.
HARD AND SOFT WATERS.
Water is usually spoken Of as either
hard or soft Hard waters contain lime
and magnesium salts, or other chem
ical substances which curdle soap. The
impurities usually found in soft water
are inconsiderable.
A simple and convenient method of
or soft is by means of tincture Of soap.
This preparation produces no effect
when added to pure distilled water.
When combined with soft water 1t
causes a slight opalescence, while with
hard water a milky appearance is pro-
duced which latter is due to the for
nation of an insoluble compound
through the combination Of the fatty
acids of the soap with the lime or mag
nesium salts existing in the water as
impurities.
PURE WATER.
Pure water is transparent, colorless,
tasteless and odorless. Any water that
is turbid, with an odor and unpleasant
taste, may be condemned as unfit for
consumption.
In order to be fit for cooking ard
drinking, water need not be chemically
pure Natural water is seldom If ever
free from foreign ingredients.
On the other hand water may meet
all the other requirements given above
and yet be dangerous because it is con-
taminated with disease germs, such as
the bacilli of typhoid and malarial
fevers.
Bacteria may be found In ali well
waters. When a well is frequently
pumped out and allowed to refill the
number of bacteria is almost greatly
diminished The bacteria usually found
in we'll water are comparatively harm
less. 1t Is only when the water be-
comes contaminated with sewage con-
tanning the dangerous varieties that
use Ct the water becomes perilous.
In water from well-protected
spring the number Of bacteria is usual
ly very small. In the water Of lakes
bacteria are abundant near the shore,
