Pure Water a Nee essity.

Water is directly absorbed into til e
blood with whatever impurity may be
contained in it, says an exchange. 1t is
to some extent strained or filtered of
what it may have of solid matter not dis
solved in it, but whatever is held in solu-
ton, and some Of what it may have that
is not dissolved to some extent, goes into
the blood with it. Thus impure water
poisons the very fount of life and carries
into an animal what may be the most in
furious to the health OF it,
There are, however, some injurious
matters existing in water which are more
especially deserving of notice on account
of their very deleterious effects. such as
eggs or germs or organic matter, either
vegetable or animal, as the spores of var
ious minute plants, and the embryos of
the most deadly parasitic ANIMALS.
OF these may be mentioned the germs
of epidemic diseases due to the growth in
the blood of minute plants derived from
these germs, and the deadly parasites,
such as the liver tluke, the various mites
final worms, and the ova OF many tape
worms. All these may be taken into
sheep in water drank from streams or
springs OF most frequently from stagnant
ponds
One of the most frequent sources OF in
lection is the overlooking of pastures by
streams into which a large extent of ma
nured lands may have been drained, or
into which the wastes of towns OF cities
may have been discharged. On this ac-
count the shepherd cannot exercise too
great caution for the protection of his
tiocks, or estimate too highly those most
favorable localities where the streams
flow down unceared mountain slopes,
from primevai forests OF where tie sparse
population has never detiled the soil with
filth and impregnated it with the germs
of disease Nor can he estimate too high
ly the pure artesan fountain flowing
from far down below the sources of i'm
purity, and supplying the tlocks with
wholesome drink. And in the choice Of Il
range OF for farm for the rearing of a
flock this point is to be considered first
and last as being of the most paramount
Importance.

How to Wash the Most Delicate of Summer Lawns.

How TO Wash the Most Delicate of Summer Lawns.
''Will it wash?'' is question so often
asked by the careful woman before mr..
chasing the delicate colored muslins and
lawns SO desir able in warm weather.
Sometimes she receives eyes" sometimes
~ don know, guess So" as reply. In
almost every instance the opinion Of the
salesman is not worth the proyerbial row
OF pins, since it is impossible to tell
whether color will or will not wash nm.
til trial has been made And even after
the first trial one need not feel too secure
for delicate shades, unless properly 'sset, -
almost invariably lose a little of their
brightn ess each time the garment is lam
dered. So by far the safest way is to
''set'' the color before it goes to the tub
for the first time.
One of the best methods of setting del
icate colors is also the cheapest and least
troublesome 1t consists in simply max
ing strong brine of cold water and salt
and soaking the garment from II to "a
hours. OF course this should be done lust
before going to the laundry, and the salt
should not be allowed to dry in it. This
is especially good for all shades of pink
and green, and colors once set this wav
Will pe orlSnt as long as there is a scrap
of cloth.
a strong solution of alum and water is
good, particularly with blues and the more
delicate shades of brown. But its effect
is not as lasting as that of salt, and it is
sometimes necessary to renew the bath
after the first three or four washings.
Yet another, and very highly spoken of
wash to insure against fading, is solution
of sugar of lead and water, about a nick
els worth of the drug to gallon of water
This recipe has but one objection, 1t is
poisonous, and for that reason in house
where there are children or animals it
should be handled with the utmost care.
The same objection can be raised against
the use of copperas water, though there
are some colors, lilacs and yellows, that
can only be made fast by soaking them in
it for something more than eight or ten
hours. Solutions of salt or alum are per-
fectly harmless, but too much care cannot
be exerted in the handling of sugar of lead
and copperas.

Address Of GOV. Powers at York County P0moG
TRANCE.

ALFRED, Sept. g. The York County
Pomona Grange held its field meeting Eere
to- day on the grounds of the county court
house. The meeting was called to order
by Elliot Fernald, master of tile grange.
and Hon. Amos NJ. Allen, Speaker Reed }
private secretary, was made presiding
officer.
The speakers Of the forenoon were Hon
James A. Roberts of Norway, Prof Woods
of the State College, Dr.. j. W. Dearborn
of Parsonsfield, Judge George w. Hanson
of Bangor, Ralph keay and b. G. Jordan
of Alfred. A basket picnic was INDUCED

mers from all over the county.
Governor Powers arrived at : p. m. and
was escorted by Hon. Edwin Wiggin OF
Pressure Isle, Master Of the State grange,
and DR.. j. W. Dearborn.
After speech by State Master Wiggin,
the governor was introduced and made d
brief address. He said in substance:
| am glad to meet and greet so many
farmers Name farmers have nothing to
apologize for. 1t is her farmers that
Maine is indebted to for the proud position
which she occupies in the Union of States
There is no part of farm labor with
which | am not familiar, and | am not
the sweat OF my own brow. Of the seven
ty millions of people, 81, 900, 600, are en-
gagged in agricultural pursuits.
AS Daniel Webster once said: 1.-The
farmers are God people" Agriculture
lies at the base of all Industries, and with
out it all other industries must cease.
| have travelled extensively in our owl
country and have seen farms in every
State in the Union, and | am free to
say that the comparison is very much in
favor of Maine. Our destiny is surely
in the hands of the farmer. Maine
faces the rising and not the setting sun
think that all can now see the day when
prosperity will sit no longer in sackcloth
and ashes
After giving the farmers some advice
in regard to doing business, he closed by
admonishing the farmers to see to it that
all property Of the State shall bear fail
share of the burden of the State.
This was the first visit of the governo,
to the shire town of the county. The
speakers who followed the governor We're

the residence of the bride father, Thomas
Lyford, Esq, on Fifth street. The we'd
ding ceremony, which was very simple
and informal. was witnessed by small
party of the relatives and immediate
friends of the couple The floral decora-
tons were among the most effective ever
seen at house wedding in this city. The
prevailing color in the dining room was
pink, the parlor was in green and white
and the hall in yellow. The ceremony
was performed by Rev. A. E. Kingsley,
pastor of the First Baptist church, and
music was furnished by members of Pull
lens symphony orchestra. The bride
wore a grey cloth travelling dress trim
med with crimson velvet and carried a
bouquet of roses.
After the ceremony lunch was served by
Mrs. Mary Smith Lutz, and at l. 40 p. M.
Mr.. and Mrs. Woodward left for a we'd
ding trip through the White Mountains

Electric Railway Project.

Another new railway project seems to
De IN order for Washington county, which
IS to be an electric road from Lubvc to
Nachias, running through the 1owus of
Trescott, Whiting and East Machias, a
distance of % miles. At first the propo-
sition of building this road was regarded
by the railroad magnates as being in di-
rect opposition to the interests of the
Washington county railroad, but now it is
conceded by all that it is a move directly
independent of the ''Grand Railway OBJ
position of the county and such a road
will be great feeder for the Washing
ton county road. This electric road will
have mail, express and freight service, as
well as carry passengers. 1t will I'M
doubtedly prove success and will tend
to encourage the construction of road
from Gardiner Corner to Cutler, the
blooming little summer resort that is
without facilities to get to it.

The q. A. K. ard their British Flag.

The other day some G. A. Rs,
Who camped in Buffalo,
Concluded for little lark,
To Canada they'd go;
And so party of them went
And didn't 90 it slow.
Toronto was the town they struck,
And when they went ashore
They formed themselves in line of march
And swung their flag galore;
Which made the people round that way
Particularly sore,
Because they have a law that says
No foreign flag shall fly
In Canada unless there is
A Union Jack near by;
And so they struck the G. A. Rs,
To know the reason why.
The G. A. Rs, apologized;
They didn't know, they said,
The customs of country where
The flag it flew was red,
And hurried off to get it straight
So they could go ahead.
And 90 ahead they did with speed,
Upon those foreign shores,
With loud hurrahs, and lively songs
And other kinds of roars;
While over them Old Glory waved
AS big as all outdoors.
But they were safe, for near at hand
A Union Jack they flew,
To keep within the law and make
The COPS know what to do!
But the inch dimensions of that Jack
Were only two by two.
