fact is scientific investigation has prov.

Try simple experiment. Put un-
boiled city water in one 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 warm place
for a week or longer and note the DIFF
ference. The unboiled water will show
a marked depreciation in looks. taste

boiled will be so much worse in these
respects that no one would think Of
using it. In comparison with these

In all countries where Lent IL kept

the last day before the beginning Of the
penitential season, has been given over
to mummings, sports and practical
Jokes. In both England and Scotland,
IN which latter place the day is known

great holiday for the apprentices and
working classes generally.
A grewsome Joke was played by
Louis Nj. one Shrove Tuesday when at
night he ordered his guards to rouse
the sleeping villagers near and bring
them to the castle. From almost ev-
cry tree in the surrounding wood, it is
said, a dead body dangled, and to the
music of his fiddlers Louis compelled
the villagers to take a gibbeted corpse
for partner and dance before it till
morning. Those who had husbands,
sweethearts or relatives among the
dead We're forced to have them for
partners.
Later Charles TX. enjoyed practical
Joke at Shrovetide that was less grim
in it's character, secretly giving ten Of
the most skillful pickpockets in Paris
full leave to steal whatever they could
without being found out at the carni-
val ball. Louis himself enjoyed their
dexterity and the dismay Of those
who missed their jewels, swords, gir-
dies and other valuables.
