DAILY HEALTH HINT

In a.. cases where pollution of the supply of drinking water is suspected, it should be boiled for 20 minutes before using. Cool the water so treated by placing ice around and not in the veSse. containing the water. By doing this possible pollution from us- ing impure ice will be avoided.
 Many peop.e do not like the flat" taste of boiled water. This can be removed by a simple pro- cess of aera ton. Tie several thicknesses of cheeSec,oth over the jar containing the water that has been boiled and place in the open air. In a little while it vii be as sweet and palatable as before treatment.

GOT MANTELS AT A BARGAIN. Society Woman Probably Would Do
 Well in Business.

A well-known woman of society has recently finished her country house, and, to the envy of her neighbors, has beautiful colonial mantels of white marble in all her bedrooms, and equal ly beautiful old timers, more elaborate, in Italian marble on her lower floor, says the New York Journal. Each al. lows for huge open fire. These she got by spying from her automobile a sign of Secondhand lumber for sale," on the grounds where an old hotel was being raZed. She recalled that in her childhood she had once visited some children who were staying at the then fashionable though old-fashioned hotel. The memory also came of high carvpd mantel in the so-called nursery, from which goodies were reached for the !mpromptu juvenile tea party, and, turning back, she discreetly alighted srom her automobile some distance away and proceeded to find the con- tractor. As result of her interview she proudly says $1.50 or $225, as she waves her hand toward these perfect marbles.

Paris Pattern No. 2737, All Seams Allowed-This dainty little frock for the very small child should be devel- oped in sheer white batiste or nain- sock. The full body portion is gath cred and attached to the round yoke and princess panel-cut in one piece of the material, and the full sleeves, which may be long or short, according to taste, are gathered into narrow wristbands or armbands. The dress fastens at the center-back with very small pearl buttons, and the lower edge is finished with a simple hem. A pretty finish would be to featherstitch either side of the princess panel and the lower edge of the yoke, as well as the hem, wristbands and collar. If de- sired, the yoke and panel may be em- broidered with a conventional design of blossoms and leaves, worked with white merceriZed cotton. For children who are not used to wearing dresses of thin material during the winter months the model may be developed In fine cashmere, challis or albatross, in white or some light shade. The pat tern is in four sizes-one-half to five years. For child of three years the dress requires 2B yards of material 27 inches wide, two yards 36 inches wide or 17s yards 42 inches wide
 To procure this pattern send 10 cents to Pattern Department" of this paper. Write name and address plainly. and be sure to give size and number of pattern.

 Actually said to Peter one morn. Ing after storm. I couldn't take a bath today on account of the muddy water. It was like brown paste
 Oh, l took a good long bath said Peter. When the Schuylkill water is like that it is the best fluid in the world to bathe in. So medicinal, you Know. Better than Homburg, or Mar ienbad, or any of those places
 But it is so muddy l said.
 That's just the point, said Peter. It's medicinal mud, full of all sorts Of phosphates and things. Tonight when you get home fill your bath, jump in and splash about; but after ward don't use any towels
 No towels?' l objected.
 "There's much better way than towels said Peter. Stand before the radiator and let the water dry on your body. Then brush it off with a whiskbroom'

 And as for Aunt Jane, Aunt Jane looked troubled between her brows and tilted her head a little more on one side as she watched the two with an air that said: Now, that's funny. Now that's very funny"
 Have you been well?" said John.
 Yes" said Euphonia, looking down at the carpet
 You're sure?" said John.
 "Yes,' said Euphonia, but you could barely hear her.
 And you always will?" said John.
 "I-I think so,' said Euphonia
 And as for Aunt Jane, Aunt Jane began to suffer.
 Have you been well?" said Eupho mia, looking up and looking down again.
 You bet I have!" cried John.
 You're sure?"
 Absolutely! Positively"
 You look well.'
 "Ah!" cried John.
 And you-you always will?"
 You know I will!" he reproached her.
 And as for Aunt Jane, Aunt Jane laid her right ear on her right shoul. der and her glance shifted backward and forward between the confection- cry and the hungry boy like q shut tie in the loom.
 Euphonia and John sat down, and John. with a world of deliberation, placed his little finger between his teeth and bit 1t.
 Lovely weather" he said.
 Euphonia arose from the sleepy hol- low chair and sat down in the gilt chair.
 Yes" said she.
 John bit his little finger again.
 Did the cat come back?" he asked.
 Euphonia changed back to the sleepy hollow.
 Yes" said she
 John bit his little finger
 They always do," said he
 Euphonia carelessly hummed tune and carelessly went over to the sofa and sat down by the side of Aunt Jane.
 Yes said she.
 And as for Aunt Jane, Aunt Jane almost screamed with the pain, but just at that point John bit his little finger again, and as Euphonia arose to go back to the sleepy hollow that letter slipped out of her belt and dropped on the sofa. Aunt Jane picked it up unnoticed, glanced at the open ing lines and set her jaw.
 John tapped his foot on the carpet
 Euphonia tapped her foot.

 And as for Aunt Jane, she went out of there. She stopped beneath the gas jet in the hall, though, and opened the letter.

ANOTHER MYSTERY
Victims Features So Horribly
Battered That Her Identity
Is Not Established.

NEW YORK, July 6--The body OF
an unidentified woman who had been
brutally murdered was found today In
the hallway of a tenement house at

every indication that the woman had
fought desperately for her life, and her
head and face were so battered that the
features were unrecognizable.
Two men were arrested by the police,
but neither is believed to be the mur-
derer.
A milk boy stumbled over the woman's
body and ran screaming to the street.
Policemen found the victim was about
35 years old.
The police declared that robbery was
a motive for the crime. The victim S
Disagreement will make further iden-

be found. The trail ends with bloody
footprints, which extend a few yards
and reveal no further impression.
