The filtered water was turned
into the city yesterday, and at
rate of five hundred thousand
gallons a day the pure, clear,
sparkling, pellucid ife-giving
filtered water is flowing into the
large reservoir that will hold two
million gallons of water.
The filter was installed by the
Roberts Filtering company, with
Mr.. Charles Hinton, an expert at
the business, from Philadelphia,
and Mr.. j. w. Mcintyre, chair
man of the water works commit

CONSTRUCTION Of this plant has
been under way for the last ten
weeks, and no time and attention
has been lost by the chairman OF
these water works in Fastening
the completion.
At present the capacity of this
| filtering plant is five hundred
thousand gallons a day, but the
plant is constructed so that with
a little expense in alteration the
capacity can be doubled if neces
sary. In the case of any emer

into utility, on a few moments

DCVyY DC0 DO YOU PUT ICE IN YOUR
DEW ANE. SUMMER DRINK? LOOK OUT

WASHINGTON, July 11.-Watch
out in using ice these hot days. Be
very sure you know the source of
your ice supply before you use it in
water, tea, lemonade and other
summer drinks.
DR.. H. w. Wiley, chief of the
bureau of chemistry, who takes a
personal concern in the health Of
the whole country, says 1t is a
very dangerous practice to put ice
in drinks of any sort.
The doctor has some definite
ideas about ice. Some time ago he
had a criminal information brought
against the American Ice company
of Washington, charging it with
selling adulterated ice.
1t seems this company was bring
ing into Washington natural ice
from ponds in Maine. The doctor
had some of this ice analysed and
found it to contain IAN added poi
sonous and deleterious ingredient,
and consisted wholly or in part Of
a filthy, decomposed and putrid
animal and vegetable substance"
In other words, the water in the
Maine ponds was not pure, receiv-
ing some sort of impure surface
drainage. The company realized
the doctor had the goods on it,
pleaded guilty and was thereupon
fined $50.
According to DR.. Wiley, Ice. even
manufactured ice, isn't always
what 1t is cracked up to be, which
was first class pun when first
sprung in 1873. But listen to the
doctor:
cts bad practice to put ice
into drinks" he told The Press
correspondent. There ought to be
laws passed in every state forbid
The Spokane press. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1902-1939, 1910-07-11

ding restaurants. cafes and hotels
from putting the ice into drinks.
In private houses there Ia no ex.
cuse for the practice.
"The proper way to get cold
drinks is to use coolers in which
the ice does not come In contact
with the liquid.
Even manufactured ice may be
impure, for not all manufacturers
distill the water to be frozen.
Freezing does not kill germs.
Some of the most dangerous tAc-
terra thrive in ice, some of them
even growing in size and number.
BY experiment we have found that
temperatures as low as zero will
not kill dangerous germs.
Much ice furnished city custo-
mers is the natural product. Often
this is cut from streams which re-
ceive the drainage of sewers. Peo-
pie would not think of drinking the
water from these streams for
minute. Yet they will TRANQUILITY
put ice taken from such streams
into liquids to be drunk"

The romantic and uncommon
side of life is benefited, as a
rule, and there should prove to

Sudden and greatly unex-
pected events are held to come
at times like these. II will be

Married people should take
heed. There is a tendency
toward quarrel, often about
trivial things, with results that
become serious beyond all pro-
portion to the cause.
For persons engaged in i'm

should be stability Of purpose
and temper, watchfulness of de-

preparations or doing preIimin-

Do nothing in haste this day
that affects others unfavorabIy.
There is a chance that the con-
