William the Conqueror did not intro

William was accustomed to swear ''by

took the place OF swearing In the cnse
of Sir Joseph Porter, X. c. b. After

TEST DRINKING WATER.
Two Methods by which You May De-
termIne Its Quality.

The supply Of drinking water for the
family should be tested at least once
a year. Water that at one time is
pure and wholesome may become too
impure for use, yet Ii may be without
color. and have no odor or taste to
show Its dangerous qualities.
A simple test of drinking water is
the Meisch sewage test. Fill a clean
pint bottle three-quarters full of the
water to be tested. and dissolve In II
half n ~teaspoonful OF granulated sug-
ar. Cork 1t and set 1t in a warm place
for two days. IL during this time It
becomes cloudy or milky 1t is unfit for
domestic use. If 1t remains perfectly
clear 1t is probably safe. Be careful
thai the bottle is absolutely as clean
as you can make 1t and the sugar
pure.
The second test is also a simple one.
Obtain from a trustworthy druggist
D cents worth of saturated solution of
permanganate of potassium. Add
about five drops of this to a pint bot
tie Of water. This will turn the water
q beautiful rose purple. II there is
any considerable o of organic
matter the color will give place in the
course OF a few hours to n more or
less dirty reddish brown. If the color
of the water in the bottle remains for
twelve hours unchanged from the rose
purple It assumed when the perman-
ganate of potassium was first added.
1t may be considered free from organic
contamination.-Health Magazine.

1t is related of Sir Edward Bradford
that he once walked arm In arm. SO to
speak. with u tigress. He was out
shooting and, always a fearless sports
man, had come to close quarters with
his quarry. He fired. aud either the
ball failed to take effect or but slight
ly wounded the animal. She sprang
at him and seized his left arm above
the elbow. The pain must have been
terrible, but Sir Edward kept cool,
and, realizing that it would be death
to drag his mangled arm away and al
low her to spring afresh at him. he de-
liberately walked a few %agonizing
PAGES until his comrade was able to
take aim and kill the brute. Thus his
courage saved his life. though the am
putation Of his arm ut the shoulder
proved necessary.

Why They Frequently Remain Dor

Certain kinds of trees frequently re-

trees remain perfectly dormant all

ry TO nature hat trees should live
without the leaves, which we learn
are their lungs and essential for evap-
grafton and assimilation OF food In the

Explanation Of this peculiar action
Is had by studying for a IN the
conditions that probably exist. The
roots OF such trees have been dis

denly checked. They are called upon
to support the tops us formerly. yet
their opportunity for the time being is
gone. A struggle Is going or The tops
make n feeble effort to put forth buds
and draw on the roots for nourishment
with poor success. The roots yield OF
their stored food, but are too weak or
are not In a position to make new

been pruned, the drain is so much the

and wild pigeons drinking salt water.
l was stationed at u place called Ka-
baira. the then 'farthest out trading
station on the whole island, and as I
had but little work to do l found
plenty OF time to study bird life In the

full, and great flocks OF white cocka-
toos frequented the rolling, grassy
downs which lay between my home
and the German head station In
Blanche bay. twenty miles distant,
while the heavy frost of the littoral
was the haunt of thousands of pigeons.
These pigeons. though not so large as

dozen or more could be shot In as
