DISTILLED WATER.
It Is the Purest, Best and Only Al
 solutely Safe Water.

It Is the Purest, Best and Only Ab-
 soluteIy Safe Water.
 Boil a gallon of water until there is but quart left, and the quart will contain all the impurities of the gal lon and be nearly four times as i'm pure as before. Continue the boiling, and all the mpurities-animal, vege- table and mineral, except the gases thrown off--will be reduced to one sol Id mass. The water which Is evapo- rated and passed off as steam is very nearly pure. But, you will say, 1t kills the dangerous germs. We will SUD- pose 1t does, but their remains furnish material for bacterial life to feed up- on. Do you relish the idea of eating In food or drinking their dead and de composing bodies, which poison the water by their decomposition? The fact Is scientific investigation has prov ed that boiling only kills the feeblest, the least injurious, germs.
 Try a simple experiment. Put un- boiled city water in ol-e bottle and the same that has been boiled for half an hour or more in another, cork tightly and keep in the sun or in a warm place for a week or longer and note the diff ference. The unbOiled water will show a marked depreciation in looks, taste and smell, but that which has been boiled will be so much worse in these respects that no one would think of using 1t. In comparison with these you can submit a properly sealed bot tie of pure distilled water to the same conditions, and at the end of year it will be found to be as pure, sweet and perfect as when first bottled.
 The purest and best and the only ab solutely safe water to use for drink ing and the preparation of all foods and artificial drinks is that produced by distillation, but the most imperfect one produces a water far superior in purity and healthfulness to the very best spring waters under their most favorable conditions. The nearest ap- proach to 1t in purity is rainwater, which Is distilled water of natures own production, when collected on clean surfaces, in uninhabite sections, where the air Is pure and uncontami- mated by smoke, dust, city and factory gases, etc.--Sanitarian.

BANQUET TO PRESIDENT.
South CarolintRns Give MT. Rooss-
 welt n Warm Greeting.


 Charleston, s. C., April 9.-The ban quet to President Roosevelt last night at the Charleston hotel was a fitting close to a day full of incidents and served to gather together men promi- nent in the affairs of the state, hay ing solely in mind a greeting to the president which would prove the sin cerity and the warmth of feeling exist ing for him as the chief executive of the nation. The banquet hall was a bower of roses, pinks and smilax, and loosely srewn over the table were thousands of violets. Over 300 guests were present. In a few well chosen remarks Mayor Smyth welcomed Pres ident Roosevelt to Charleston. The presidents response was listened to with the closest attention and was in- terupted at times by loud and continu- ous applause.
 In the course of his remarks the pres ident referred to the Cuban reciprocity question in the following terms:
 II was very glad that in arranging for your exposition you not only took in the southern states, but that you SpSCldHy lncluueO I0S lSldnuS lylIlS south of the United States, those is- lands with which the events of the last few years have made 1t evident that we are bound in future to have closer relations, closer relations for our ad= vantage, and our advantage can only be secured by making it for their ad- vantage also. And about all that 1 have said applies to the greatest and richest of those islands, the island with which we have been brought into the most peculiar intimacy and rela- tionship, the island of Cuba. And I ask that in our trade relations with Cuba we give her a marked and sub stantial advantage not merely because 1t will rebound to our interest to do so, although that also is true, but I ask 1t especially because the events have so shaped themselves that it is our duty as a great and mighty nation to help Cuba, and hope to see us do our dutyo

FIRE AT ATLANTIC CITY.

 Hotels Burned.

Hotels Burned.
 Fire on Thursday ate out the heart of Atlantic City's water front, burned a quarter of a mile of the famous board walk and destroyed nearly $1,O00,000 in property. Five hours pass ed before the local firemen, with the as- sistance of five companies from Phila delphia and Camden, could get the flames under control.
 Thirteen hotels were destroyed in whole or in part, just on the eve of what promised to be one of the most prosperous seasons in the history of the place. In addition to this eighteen places of business and amusement, in cluding the Academy of Music and Young's pier, went down before the flames, although only the middle DOT tion of the pier suffered, the ends es> caping with comparatively slight dam- age.
 The burned hotels were the Tray more, Windsor, Tarleton, Luray, Nor wood, New Holland, Stratford. Berke- ley, Stickney, Everard, Bryn Mawr, Mervine and Rio Grande. Only one end of the Windsor was burned. The main portion of the big hotel escaped, al- though when the Tarleton, close to which the fire started, collapsed the south end fell on the Windsor, and for a time it looked as if nothing could save 1t.
 It was the biggest fire In the history of Atlantic City, and in its progress there were many narrow escapes from death. The hotels had opened for the Easter rush, and hundreds of guests, many of them invalids, were in peril before the sweep of the flames. So far as can be learned all escaped with their lives, but many suffered injuries and lost everything they had. In many in- stances women and children were com pelled to flee in their night clothing and take refuge in hotels and private dwell ings beyond the fire lines. The hospital corps was kept busy dressing the wounds of the injured.
