HOME DISABLING PLANT.

There is no question but that large
proportion of the sickness with which
mankind is afflicted is due to impure
water, taken when the system is weak
ened from some cause and unable to
exert its strength to fight the disease
microbes with which the water
abounds. 1t is common practice for
the physician to recommend the use
Of distilled water for patient i'll with
one disease in order to guard against
the liability of other disease germs be-
Ing taken into the stomach, and 1t is
likely that distilled water would be
prescribed for constant use were it not
for the difficulty of securing it. 1t is
to provide a constant supply of this
pure water, with as little trouble AZ
possible, that the household still shown
in the illustrationd has been invented

little dried leaf or a tiny clod Of
earth. Their wings grew with aston
1shing rapidity, while for a week or
two their bodies remained as small as
ever. The bantam hen was q particu

was found necessary, in order to recap
ture the little bird, to let the hen loose
and wait until the mites of partridge
crept under her.
One very amusing thing happened
daily. The cartridges would snuggle
under the bantam and gradually work
up under her wings until close to her
shoulders. When she stood up to feed
she would naturally hold her wings
more closely to her body than when
broodtng, and as a result the little
birds would be held prisoners in the
hollow under her wing. Their little

enough In their unusual position, but
the movements and clucks of the hen

by Edward Warren and George W.
Healy Of Fort Thomas, Ariz. The in.
tention Is to utilize the waste steam
from the teakettle, and the invention,
therefore, comprises a double reser-
VoEr, having a receiver for the steam
and cold water chamber surrounding
the condenser. A curved tube is slip-
ped over the spout of the kettle to
conduct the steam into the condensing
chamber, and as fast as the distilled
water collects in this chamber It is
drawn off for use or bottling. The
cold water reservoir is filed from time
TO time, and has faucet to feed the
Kettle through an opening in the tube
which covers the spout. Thus the steam
from the boiling water is constantly
producing the distilled product, in lead
OF wasting itself in the air.
