Pure Water.

This is something that people gel
more OF at the drug store than they
have any idea of. Every bottle OF
medicine is a half or two-thirds dis
titled water. Distilled water by the
fve-gallon bottle is much cheaper-or
you may buy still" and make it
yourself. Pure spring water and soft
well water contain natural salts that
are beneficial rather than harmful.
But these salts are 10 be had in fruits
and also in vegetables, and so It is far
better TO drink distilled water than
impure water of any kind-or 70 drink
hard water. Hard water is especially
bad where there is any tendency to
kidney trouble. Spring water that is
sold in large cities in cans is unwhole-
some-because Of having been kept IN
cans. Water-like fruit, rhubarb and
omatoes-should never touch metal
of any kind whatsoever. A cup Of
hot water an hour before each meal,
another cup an hour after each meal
brings health. Put a little lemon in
the water. Do not drink it too hot
Always have it freshly boiled.

NothIna New under the sun.

Mr.. Arthur Evans, the Oxford arch
aeologist, who has made so many in
teresting discoveries in the so-called
palace of Minos. in Crete, has found
in a subterranean sanctuary certain
very ancient, small, earthenware stat
ues, representing some goddess and
two of her servants. The dress OF the
figures is said to be highly modern.
The skirt OF the robe OF the goddess
is in Louis XIV. style" Her jacket is
exactly as is worn in the present
day. Styles Of say, 2000 B. c., styles
of 1904. Unless some humorist has
"salted" the excavations. you are
forced to hold that much nonsense has

BARBFRRY JELLY.

A delicious jelly, which is in high
repute with English people and fami-
lies of English descent in this coun-
try, is made Of barberr;es. The bar
berry is a rather seedy fruit for pre-
serves, but it is sometimes put up, as
currants are, with pound Of raisins
to every five pounds OF itself and a
pound Of sugar to a pound Of the
whole. The barberry should be pick
ed late, after it has been touched
with the frost. and the fruit is deep,
dark crimson. The demand for the
fruit IS 50 limited that il seldom sells
for more than ten cents a quart, so il
must be classed among our inexpen-
sive preserving fruit.

A MAKER OF PRESIDENTS
Ed Kirkland About to Set Out on His
 Quadrennial Excursion.

Territorial Treasurer E. Kirkland will leave tomorrow on an eastern tour. He will isit his former home at Hannibal. Mo-, will take in the worlds fair, and whatever else beyond that that is worth seeing. This is not to be so much a trip of recreation and sight seeing as a journey of political precaution. Mir. Kirkland has lived in the territory for several years and some time after his arrival he made it a point to revisit the east quadrennially. He always went on presidential campaign years. That is he did not always go on cam paign years for he missed two of them and thereby the country underwent a great calamity each time in conse- quence of his neglect.
 In 1884 he was too busy with his cat tie to get away and Cleveland beat Blaine. MT. Kirkland at the time did not connect the republican defeat with his failure to go east, but four years later he went and then Harrison was
