DISTILLED WATER.

solutely safe Water.
Boil n gallon OF water until there II
but a 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 impurities-animal, vege-
table and mineral, except the gases
thrown off-will be reduced to one sol
i'd 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 sup
pose il 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 u 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 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 1t
will be found to be as pure, sweet and
perfect as when first bottled
The purest and best and the only alb
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 water far superior In
purity and healthfulness to the very
best spring waters under their most
favorable conditions. The nearest ap-
proaeh to 1t in purity is rainwater,
which is distilled water Of natures
own production, when collected on
clean surfaces, in uninhabited sections,
where the air is pure and uncontami-
mated by smoke, dust, city and factory
gases, etc.-Sanitarian.

Animals and salt.

Among certain people there is a
strong idea that nothing is worse for
dogs than salt, but as a matter of fact,
when administered In small quantities,
1t materially assists the process OF di-
gestion. There is no doubt, however,
that to give dogs or any other animals
broth or pot liquor In which salt pork
or bacon has been boiled would be al
most equivalent to giving them small
dose Of poison. The use Of salt among
horses, cattle and sheep 10 advocated
by the highest veterinary authorities.
Pigs, on the contrary, are extremely
susceptible to the poisonous influence
OF the agent, and experiments have
been made which had, after small
doses regularly administered, fatal re-
suits. Habitually, as matter OF course,
all animals consume a certain portion
Of salt, as It exists In certain proper
lions In most articles of food.-London
