Natural Waters.

All natural waters contain a greater
or less amount of mineral matter In So
luton. Rain water has the smallest
percentage of solid impurities of any,
and therefore it is taken as the stand
ard variety Of soft water.
The terms soft and hard, however,
as applied to water are scientifically
considered purely relative.
Water is usually reckoned to be
soft" when it contains less than one
five-thousandth part of Its weight Of
mineral ingredients and hard" when 1t
contains more than one four-thou-
sandth.
Soft water has the property of easily
forming a lather with soap and is
therefore suitable for washing pur-
poses. while hard water will only form
a lather, and that imperfeetly. with
considerable difficulty.
a mineral water has more than one
two-thousandth of its weight of nat
ural dissolved solids, and a medicinal
water Is a variety of mineral water
containing a varying percentage of dis
solved natural solid or gaseous drugs.

II compiled with their request, little
thinking that they would become very
distinguished men. Daniel dropped
his piece of bread on the sandy floor.

Portland Argus :-Mormonism is not
making progress as rapidly as some
other curious religious phenomena, but
it is by no means standing still. Its
proselyting emissaries have been actively
at work in various sections n the country
and have even invaded NewSsY ork City.
The claim is made that their Manhattan
converts number 1000, and they are
actually contemplating the erection of a
temple in Gotham. That this discredited
and on its polygamous side, disgusting
superstition still has vitality enough to
attract recruits In the centres OF enlight-
eminent, is somewhat humliating
Twentieth century fact.

Dollars In Odd shapes.

Under the law a silver dollar may be
4 grain and half over weight or
grain and n half under weight. and this
limit of tolerance" applies 10 all Of our
silver coins. In other words. they are
not allowed 10 vary more Ian that
much from standard In the case Of
goldpleces, the limit Is lalf n grain
either way up to the eagle, a variation
Of as much as one grain being permlssi-
bic in the SO and $50 pieces.
Whenever n fresh batch Of dollars is
turned out at the mint. samples are
forwarded to the treasury III Washing
ton, where they are put through Il very
curious process. Each dollar is first
weighed on exquisitely delicate scales
to make sure that II IS heavy enough
and yet not too heavyss fhen II IS pass
ed between two s5et. Aiiers again and
again until It Is fattened ont and
transformed into thin strip Of silver
a sort of rlbbon-a foot and a half In
length. Then 1t Is put beneath a little
machine provided with several small
punches, by which hundreds Of tiny
hioho arc ijuilAlitI Dul II lIA IlfNdl
strip.
Now, the object of this performance
is to obtain samples of metal from all
parts of the dollar, inasmuch as 1t IS
conceivable that one portion might be
richer in silver than another. The little
disks are shuffled together and a few
of them, taken at random from the lot,
are subjected to an assay. Thus the
fineness of the material Of the dollar is
ascertained with absolute accuracy
and, the weight having been already
determined the value and correctness
of that coin are. perfectly known.
The sample pieces having been found
correct, it Is inferred that the entire
batch Of dollars is all right.-Saturday

Portland Press: The County Com

Portland Press: The County Com
missioners have decided to allow Sheriff
Pearson to employ five deputies in sup
pressing the liquor traffic, though under
the law passed by the last legislature he
is strictly entitled to but three. The
decision of the commissioners is wise.
Sheriff Pearson was elected to suppress
the liquor traffic and Danish drunkenness
from this city. He is sincerely doing
his best, but he finds more difficulties In
the way, we imagine, than he anticipst-
ed. With five deputies he has not been
able, up to the present time, to suppress
the traffic. II he should lose two he
would be seriously crippled, and would
have good reason to complain that his
efforts were being INSTRUCTED by the
commissioners. 1t may cost the county
a few hundred or possibly few thou
sand to supply the sheriff with the force
he thinks he needs, but the people will
cheerfully pay that for the suppression
Of the liquor traffic and the promotion
Of sobriety.

Portland Press:-During the period
that interest was falling the investment
committee of Colby college yielded,
along with great many others, to the
temptation to keep up the rate of inter-
est by investing in western farm mort
cages, and with unfortunate result. 1t
is clearly seen now that it would have
been better to have submitted to a
sbrinkage of income and invested In none
bnt gilt edged securities, but hind sight
is generally much superior to foresight
The college ought not to be allowed to
suffer, however, for this honest, though
unfortunate, mistake. It's friends should
see that the part of the endowment that
has been lost is made up, and that more
caution be exercised In the future.

Belfast Journal Last year many of
our esteemed contemporaries kicked
vigorously because of the idea that Port
land was to monopolize all the glory and
profit of State day, Old Home Week.
Now the opportunity has been open to
other cities and one or two have uu-
gracefully declined it. This perhaps Is
as WELL Few cities in Maine could act
as host on this occasion so acceptably as
the Forrest City and location Ia also in
her favor. If Portland should again
accept the duty which by general con-
sent now seems likely to be imposed
upon her, she should at least have the
hearty good wishes and cooperation Of
her sister cities and of Maine people
generally. Rockland has now expressed
her willingness to assume the lespon-
sibilities of State day, and II she does
so she should have the same aid and
encouragement we have bespoken for
Portland.

one had with King Edward yesterday.
He was perfectly frank and agreeable
and in accord with Amedican progress.

merous farms In the New England states,

doned by their owners, although sur
rounded by the best of markets" While
it is fact that land and buildings there
