DEADLY WATER IN THE DESERT.
Mistake Made by Travellers In Arid
Wastes Of the Southwest.

"One of the chief dangers of travel
ers IN crossing such dreary and arid
wastes as the far famed Death valley
In Nevada arises from ignorance as to
the character of the infreQuent pools
Of water along the route" said 7. f.
Smalley, mining engineer of Denver.
The tendorfoot growing faint under
q blazing sun, will want to quench his
intolerable thirst when he comes to a
shallow hole, whose water, clear as
crystal. seems absolutely pure. He
can with difficulty be restrained from
drinking 1t by some experienced com
panion, who knows that one draught
will probably cause serious II not fatal
Illness This water for all its seem
Ing purity and clearness, is loaded
with arsenic, and many a man has lost
his life by its use.
"Curiously enough, the only water
I'm the desert that is safe to drink is
foul looking and inhabited by bugs
and snakes When you come to 81
muddy pool, on the surface of which
insects are sdisporting themselves, how
ever repuisive 1t may be both TO the
eye and palate. you may drink 1t with

When cleaning lettuce one often
