MAKE YOUR OWN FILTER.
There Is No Excuse for Drinking
Water Which lis Full of Germs
and Impurities.

Everybody knows, or ought to know,
that at this time of the year it is the
height of folly to drink water that has
not been previously purified in some
way, either by boiling or by filtration.
Boiling is an effective way of freeing
the water from impurities, and should
certainly be done where no better
method exists, but useful filter can
be made so easily at home, at an al
most nominal cost, that there is scarce
ly any excuse for household not pos
Eessing one.
The homemade filter consists sim
ply of an ordinary decanter, lamp
glass, such as can be purchased any
where for few cents, by way of fun
mel, and u piece of sponge or cotton
wool. Some people prefer cotton wool
because it can be thrown away after
n time and renewed at nominal cost.
If sponge is chosen it ought to be
taken out often, cleaned in hot salt
water and afterward rinsed in cold.
The sponge or cotton wool is placed
for the distance of an inch in the lamp
shade. This is then covered by layer
of fine white sand, which has been
washed very clean, and placed in fine
lawn bag, This must be packed
through the top of the glass, and
spread out to fit across by the aid OF
long pencil or a skewer.
On top of the sand must be placed a
layer of animal charcoal which has
been previously thoroughly washed by
putting it in an earthen vessel and
pouring boiling water upon it. This

layer should be at least an inch deep
and should be well pressed down upon
the layer of sand. The filter is now
ready for use.
Water is poured into the lamp shade
and allowed to percolate slowly
through to the decanter beneath.
After time the charcoal will get
clogged and little must be taken
from the top and boiled for few min
utes and then spread out before the
fire. 1t will then be as good as ever
and can be thus cleansed indefinitely.
From time to time, also, the whole APP
paratus will want cleansing, and the
whole of the charcoal, as we'll as the
bag of sand and the cotton wool, or
sponge, will have to be taken out and
thoroughly boiled, or, better still, re-
placed with new material.
Provided the filter be thus kept
thoroughly clean it will yield as good
results as any of the patent filters on
the market costing many times the
value of this simple apparatus.-N. Y

A BRIDGE DISASTER.

}pans OF n Structure Across the st. law
reucs River Give Way and Dozens of
WorRmen are Killed
Hogansburg, N. V, Sept. About
noon Tuesday two south spans of the
international bridge of the New York
d Ottawa railroad, now under con,
struction across the st. Lawrence river
about three miles above st. Regis In
dian village, fell without warning,
with 60 men at work on the bridge, all
being thrown into the river 60 feet
below. Over 30 were picked up and
taken to Cornwall hospital and 27 are
missing. The bridge consists of three
spans, of which two were completed
and the third was nearly completed
when the south pier gave way at its
foundation, causing both spans to fall
into 60 feet of water, taking it's load
of human freight with it.
The names of the killed and drown
ed cannot at present be ascertained, as
they were mostly from Pennsylvania,
excepting a few Indians from the st.
Regis reservation.
The bridge that gave way was being
built across the st. Lawrence river at
the foot of Long Sault rapids, near
Reinhardt's island. The water at this
point is as swift as in any part of the
river. The immediate cause of the dis.
aster and the giving way of the span
of the bridge seems to have been from
the washing away of one of the large
piers. The pier in question was begun
last fall and work was continued all
winter and finished this summer. The
contract work was in charge of Sooy
Smith & Co., who are well known as
extensive and careful contractors in
their line and known to have had in.
structions from the railroad company
to build for ''permanency." The pieI
had been accepted as perfectly safe
1t would seem from this that the swift
ness of the current was under
| estimated.
Late reports from Cornwall hospita
say 80 men have been taken out of the
river and transferred TO the hospital
| Eighteen of them have since died. The
latest information makes it probable
| that the death list will reach 30. As
far as can be learned 81 men were or

work yesterday. Of this list only IS
have been accounted for.

light OF day, cautions the St. Louis
Globe-Democrat. The secret of
clear, beautiful complexion is perfect
digestion, and in summer, especially,
light diet is sufficient for the indolent
lives led by most of us during the heat

milk, clear soup, whole wheat and rye

belts and bands produce coarse, red

the lips and eyes. Friction BATH, cool
plunges and rigorous massage, laugh

blood bound freely, round the muscles
and reduce loose, flabby flesh to nor

very tired and warm. Take time to

your clothes and rest half an hour

YOUNG GIRLS HEALTH.
Mrs. s. II. ROrer Gives Some Dire ctIons
Regarding Her Dress, Diver
sions and Diet.

"A young girl should be taught to
carry her body erect, holding her alb
domen in, and putting the ball of her
foot first on the ground" writes Mrs.
S. L. Rorer on THE Best Diet for
Bloodless Girls" in the Ladies Home
Journal. "This is of the utmost impor-
tance to keep the organs in good posi-
ton. The clothing should be loose, light,
warm and suspended from the shoul-
ders. Skirts should be made of light
material-either wool or silk. The
stockings fastened to the waist by
means of supporters; the one skirt worn
buttoned to the bottom of the waist,
with an outside dress supported from
the shoulders, should form the neces-
sary clothing. The shoes should be
made to fit the feet, with broad soles
and low, broad heels. Gloves should be
sufficiently loose not to stop the circula-
tion at the wrists. A short walk each day
may be taken, but fatigue should never
be Produced; far better to spend most
of the day out-of-doors in the hammock
or steamer-chair.
"Early to bed should be the first
motto. In the morning, after sponge
bath with thorough rub, she should
drtnR half a glass of comfortably hot
water. When appetite is felt soft
boilei egg, pisce of whole wheat
bread thoroughly baked and well but
tered, and little while after a glass
of cool water, not iced, may be taken.
The MONDAY meal should consist of
good, clear beef soup, broiled steak
or roasted beef, u little boiled rice, q
lettuce salad with olive oil dressing,
and some simple dessert, such as
whipped or Bavarian cream. After
dinner, rest should be taken in the
open air, either in the hammock or
steamer-chair and without reading or
heavy mental occupation. For supper,
beef or mutton broiled, and good whole
wheat bread well buttered. AT the
close of this meal she should take
slowly about two teaspoonfuls of olive
oil and masticate it before swallow

Rioting at Candia, Crete-Warship Shells
the Town and Burns IA Portion.
Gambia, Crete, Sept. 7.-Candia is in
a state of anarchy. A collision be-
tween the Mussulmans, who were
demonstrating against European con-
troll, and the British authorities, who
have been installing Christians as rev.
enue officials, eliminated yesterday in
bloody fighting between the Mussul-
mans and the British troops. Riots
took place in various parts of the city
and many were killed. When the out
break was fiercest warship stationed
in the harbor began firing shells, with
the result that portion of the city
is in flames. The greatest confusion
and uproar prevails.
The trouble began with the attempt
of the British military authorities to
install Christian officials. They had
appointed council of internal control
to administer the tithe revenues and a
detachment of soldiers was stationed
outside the Office as precaution. A
crowd of unarmed Mussulmans which
had been demonstrating against the
Christians attempted to force an en-
trance into the office. The British
soldiers fired and wounded several.
The Mussulmans ran for their arms
and, returning, attacked the soldiers.
Other Mussulmans spread rapidly
through the Christian quarter, shoot
ing into windows and setting many
houses and shops on fire. 1t is report
ed that the British consul has been
killed.
The Cretan fleet is under command
of the French admiral, the senior Off
Ger in command. The troops of the

NAMED A TICKET.
Middle of the Road Populists Get
In Line Tor 1900.
Wharton Barker, of Pennsylvania Is Nom
mated for President of the United
States; His Running Mate is IGna-
titus Donneliy-Stormy Con-
Vention at Cincinnati

Cincinnati, Sept. Tn the middle of
the road populists' convention yester-
day the temporary organization was
made permanent and Chairman Igna-
thus Donnelly made another radical
speech denouncing all those who had
co-operated with fusion movements.
a letter was read from eN-Gov. Waite,
of Colorado, in which he denounced
Senator Butler, of North Carolina, as
q treacherous chairman.
An elaborate address to the people
of the United States was adopted. 1t
reatfirms the previous platforms of the
populists and covers many additional
questions, and unsparingly condemns
Senator Butler.
A bitter discussion then followed on
a motion to proceed with nominations
for president and vice president. The
Butler faction moved to amend by re-
ferring the whole matter to their ma
tional committee. This caused great
disturbance and the Butler men were
| knocked out. Joseph Palmer, of llli-
| nois, then called the Butler faction to-
gether in another part of the hall and
it was announced that they would bolt
and leave the hall if the motion to pro-
ceed with nominations prevailed.
| There was scene of commotion which
was finally quelled by Mr.. Walker, of
Illinois, taking the platform and ad-
dressing the convention in the interest
| of order and harmony
