How Fashions Are Made.

Several years ago THE present King
of England, who was then Prince Of
Wales, was SO unfortunate as to have
a boil under his right arm. As Re.
suit Of this, when he. shook hands with
his friends he was compelled to raise
his right hand and elbow to the level
Of his chin. This Immediately became
and was common in the 6 smart set .
Of two continents. We have not en-
tirely lost the fashion to this day, but
it seems to be going. One custom
which Is here to stay is the daily use
Of golden grain belt beer. If To the
families who observe this custom come
health, strength and happiness.

Another easy test is to put eight grains of a
solution of permanganate of potash into an ounce
of distilled water. This solution is red and if
drop of it loses color when placed in the half
pint to be tested the water is impure. Too many
persons do not test water because there is no
odor and it is clear, but that is no guarantee
of its safety. Boiling water is the only way
to have it absolutely pure since that destroys all
living organisms.
But there is general dislike for boiled water,
because of a fiat taste that follows the heat
treatment and takes the Sparkle and life from
it. as many persons say.
Boiling alone will not keep out bacteria and
germs of disease, for unless the vessels have been
sterilized the water will not long remain pure.
For though once purified If it is put into bucket
or jar containing organic matter it will again be-
come polluted, and will be quite as injurious to
drink as before the cleansing.
When the vessels have been thoroughly boiled
they may be filled with the pure water than can
be used with perfect safety. A tight fitting lid
or stopper must be constantly kept on to keep
dust from getting in and again causing impurities.
KEEPING WATER COOL.
Stone jars with tight covers are the best kind
of vessel to keep purified water in. For they
are easily filed and Handled, and may be set in
an ice chest to COOL Once cold the heavy ware
keeps cool for hours, even when taken from the
ice box. Almost the only objection to boiled wa
ter for drinking purposes is the difficulty of keep
ing it cool. This is rather hard TO accomplish in
the summer unless you put it in porcelain lined
cooler.
Always keep heavy cover down close over the
well to keep dirt from the top, guarding it there
as well as from the impurities in the under
ground
In building well, if possible select sandy soil,
for it acts as filter in purifying the water Be
sure to choose high spot, and one as far as
possible from any known source of pollution.
Never imagine that because the water Is good
color and tastes all right that it is free from dis
ease and bacteria, for it might be teeming with
pollution and still be clear and taste good

Wf1&&iD the drinking water supplied; yet,
strange to say, woman will take n
family OF small children to the country, turning
them loose to play without paying the slightest
heed as to where the water they drink comes
from. Much of that used in the country comes
from wells, and if their location is too near the
house or the drainage supply, the water obviously
is unfit to drink being likely to contain typhoid
or other germs.
To those who realize the value of pure drinking
water the selection of good well is as Important
as choosing comfortable cottage. More care
than simply asking if the water supply is pure
should be exercised by summer residents, who
should look over the ground as thoroughly as
possible to find out how close the well is to any
source of contamination. Being satisfied it is
sufficiently far from sewer and cesspool for tie
water to be reasonably pure, the house or rooms
may be considered for home during the hot
