FOR THE HOUSEWIFE
Menace of Impure Water.

A report of Professor F. L. Wash
burn, geologist of the University of Or
egon, on drinking water was recently
published in the Portland Oregonian.
The following Introductory remarks of
Professor Washburn are here publish
ed, as they are applicable to other Sec
! tons besides Oregon:
probably there is no greater menace
to public health than our ignorance of
the character of the water which we
drink. If it be clear and tasteless, we
remark upon its excellence. Even IL 1t
is discolored or odoriferous from time
to time we endure it and make no spe-
cial effort to examine 1t scientifically
or the environments of its source-well
or reservoir or river or brook, as the
case may be. Many a landowner in Or
egon has his barn and outhouses on a
sloOe below his dwelling house and
about 40 feet. more or less, from the
latter. At greater or less distance
from his back ioor we find a dug well,
and he imagines. overlooking the re-
grettable fact that Stops are often
thrown out of said door. that. the barn
being on a level below his well, there
can be no drainage whatever from his
various outhouses into the source of his
water supply. He does not realize that
while Mother Earth smiles at him on
the surface she may be playing him an
ugly trick below the surface. for. not
withstanding the aforesaid slope. we
may find and frequently do find the
strata arranged In such a way that
there is drainage from the barn toward
the house.
1T is evident that under these con-
ditions there will be seepage from the
barn toward the well. and the water of
the latter will be contaminated"

FOR LITTLE FOLKS.F
~YanLee Doodle In Europe.


John Quincy Adams once told how
our national air was introduced among
Europeans. He and Henry Clay and
three others were in Client, in Bel
GUM, as commissioners Of the United
States making a treaty with Great
Britain at the close of the war of 1872.
There was to be a big banquet. with
the diplomatic corps present, and the
music of each nation represented was
to be played by the band. The band
master came to our commissioners and
asked for our national air. ut is Yam
kee Doodle" said they. Yankee
Doodle?' What is that? Where shall
/ find it? By whom was it composed?
Can you furnish me with the scorer"
Not much. They were at their wits
end. 1t was another kind of score they
had come to settle. AT last happy
thought came to them. Henry Clay
had colored boy with him for a serv-
ant, and of course he could whistle,
and of course he knew Yankee Doo-
die" by heart. So they sent for him.
and the problem was solved. The col
ored boy whistled, and the bandmas-
ter jotted down the air. And before
night" said Mr.. Adams, Yankee
Doodle was set to SO many parts that
you would hardly have known it." And
it came out the next day in all the
pride and pomp and circumstance of a
royal brass band to the edification Of
the majesty and nobility of Europe.

HEAEE WAS his WEAK PLACE.
Angina Pectoris Was Waiting Its Chancs

DR.. Jameson. shortly after the an
nouncement of Judge Woods death
was made public. gave out The follow

from hardening of the outside ar
teries of the heart-angina pectoris
Three weeks ago he suffered a slight

stay indoors. Yesterday, however, the
judge was out going about his business
as usual.
'He came home feeling fairly we'll
and ate hearty supper. Along about
8 or 10 o'clock he began to complain.
Mrs. Woods gave him some cham
payne. This was in the nature of a
stimulant for the heart. He seemed
free of pain and perfectly happy. The
disease that proved fatal in Judge
Woods case came on slowly, with his
advance in age. He was somewhat
fearful of its being the cause of his ILL
ness, but did not tell him so because
/ feared that the effect of the in
formation might be anything but bene-

The Military Salute.
All salutes, from taking off the hat
to presenting arms, originally implied
respect or submission. OF military sa-
lutes, raising the right hand to the
head is generally believed to have orig
mated from the days of the tourna-
ment, when the knights filed past the
throne Of the queen of beauty and, by
way of compliment, raised their hands
to their brows to imply that her beau
ty was too dazzling for unshaded eyes
to gaze upon.
The officers salute with the sword
has a double meaning. The first posi-
ton, with the hilt opposite the lips,
is q repetition of the crusaders action
In kissing the cross hilt Of his sword
in token of faith and fealty, while low
ering the point afterward implies eli
Their submission or friendship, meaning
In either case that it is no longer nee
essary to stand on guard. Raising the
hand to the forehead has also been ex-
planned as a sign that the weaponed
hand is empty and in an inoffensive po-
stion, but this reason does not seem
so convincing as the others.

search being made the property was
found, FIVE head Of horses being tied IN

however, that two men were seen TO turn
some Of the stock into the pasture on
Sunday, afterwards going to Whitehead's s

the pasture could not be found although
they left a plain tran east, T at least one
Of them did.
