Coxe, dealing with the above subject. After describing as essential to the consoli- dation of a truly great nation and the per- manence of its institutions, the possession of a fixed system of public morals anda spirit of fidelity to national traditions and long established institutions, the writer proceeds to relate the resuit of great move- ments of populations in the past, and doves not hesitate to recognize the wholesale im- migration into the United States, as inva- sion pure and simple. He describes the weapons brought by many of these debased

ern blood medicines, Ayer’s Sarsaparilla is still the most pop- ular, being in great- er demand than all others combined.

“ Ayer’s Sarsaparilla is selling faster than ever before. I never-hesitate to recommend it.” —George W. Whitman, Druggist, Albany, Ind.

“Tamsafe in saying that my sales of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla far excel those of any other, and it gives thorough satisfac- tion.”— L. H. Bush, Des Moines, Iowa.

“ Ayer’s Sarsaparilla and Ayer’s Pills are the best selling medicines in my store. I can recommend them conscien- tiously.’—C. Bickhaus, Pharmacist, Roseland, Ill.

“We have sold Ayer’s Sarsaparilla

. here for over thirty years and always

| recommend it when asked to name the

best blood-purifier.”— W. T. McLean,

i *“‘T have sold your medicines for the

satisfaction of any medicine I have im stock. I recommend it, or, as the Doctors say, ‘I prescribe it over the counter.’ It never fails to meet the cases for which I recommend it, even where the doctors’ prescriptions have been of no avail.’’—C. F. oun, Monmouth, Kansas.

When we find that ‘during the ninety years preceding 1880 ten million foreigners have made their home in the Republic, and that the lowest estimate of the foreign born population in 1900 is ' 19,000,000 persons, while the addition of

a total of 43,000,000 persons, we realize

somewhat of the importance of the problem | which will in the future demand solution. |

It will be noticed that this foreign part of the population is concentrating west of the Mississippi, and it is estimated that if the movement westward continues, it will form in 1900 a total of 25,000,000 persons in one portion of the Republic alone. After referring to the perils engendered by sudden wealth, the universal appetite for excitement, and the socialistic disposition of vast masses in the back ground clamor ing for wealth. Bishop Coxe asks, ** if our children’s children shali see another cen tennial commemoration’’ and adds: *‘* think every thoughtful man must nounce such a consummation taprobable in the extreme.”

Another author dealing recently with inuch the same subject, voiced the senti ments of many in writing: ‘When class antipathies are deepened ; when Socialistic armed and drilled, are in and ignorant

Bacteria in Drinking Water.

| FILTERING WATER FOR DRINKING PURPOSES—

BOILING WATER TO KILL BACTERIA.

That not all bacteria are deleterious is | well known. According to Kraus and other the ordinary putrefaction may act beneficially by de- re ¥ ney the daisease- pro lucing drinking water. The causative germ of typhoid fever was found alive after thirty- two days in water from which the ordinary

bacteria of

i . : hacteria had peen removed. When the

putrefactive bacteria were 1, the typhoid bacillus could not be detected after six days. As most waters contain putrefactive bacteria, it is probable that many disease-producing bacteria are destroyed through this activity. Yet it is,

not safe to depend entirely upon

natura!

Hiow

water is a most important question.

There are two classes of filtera in general use in families. The first class consists oi some kind of a receiver into which the water is poured. After passing through the tiltering medium, the water is collected as needed or stored for use. The second variety are so arranged that they can be connected with the faucets and thus strain the water as it flows from the hydrant.

Extensive experiments have been recent-

method at present known to destroy bac- teria in water.

2. Ordinary filters, while satisfactory as strainers, do not remove bacteria from water. The finer the substance through which the water passes the more perfect is the action of the filter in holding back bac- teria.

3. The best substance for domestic filters is porous rebaked porcelain.

4. If filters are used they must be thor- oughly vieaned and sterilized by dry heat or steam every few days.

5. A bad water filtered is not so desir- able as a pure water in its natural state. When, thereture, there is reason to sus- pect that water is contaminated it is well to boil it, even if it has been filtered.

It is amply demonstratrated that certain bacteria retain their vitality in ice longer than in water. Consequently, it would seem to be the part of on to cool water by placing it on the ice, and not by placing ice in the water.—Dr. Burleigh, in Indus- trialist.

Trotting Fast Double.

The Turf, Field ond Farm, haa been pub- lishing some interesting letters from prom- inent owners of fast trotters on the double- n, a3 to whether two horses double than harness. There is no tter nor more skilful road driver in Ame s than Mr. John Shepard of Boston, and ; his opinion is worth hearing. This is what ‘*‘We must remember, horses are |like people; one day they feel equal to any within their power, and lanother day it isa great effort for them to jcome anywhere near their limit. You and | both know that drivers are often blamed \for not winning a race when the tire is ap- | parently slow, yet they are the most anxious party todoso. Some days I feel like jump- ing over a three-rail fence, and next day it is an eXertion to climb through it. Now I think after above explanation two horses can trot as fast together as either can trot in harness, that is, if there 1s not over two seconds or so difference in their speed; say if one horse can trot in 2.22 and the other in 2.17, or even in 2.20, they might be driven double in 2.20, if both were in good condition, Idon’t think the weight has much to do with helping the slower horse te go a faster mile to pole than to harness, as the four wheels fully balance the differ- ence in weight they pull. The fact of one {horse trying to beat the other has much to do with it. J have ofter found when a (horse finds out that his mate can beat him easy the slower one gets discouraged and they are not a good fast pair any longer. 1 jchange mine from one side to the other, or have done so with different teams I have owned, and I have always made it a point n driving to try and convince the slower horse he can out-trot his mate. In this way and no other can « man drive a pair

ster double than single. I think Mr, Vanderbilt’s driving as he did in 2.15} was 4 wonderful feat even if he did have the ,lastest mare inthe world, (2.08}) as one of ‘the pair, and if he had started to do just , what he did do, I don’t think he ever would /have accomplished it. He talked with me about an Lour on this subject, and said he had no thoughts of going the mile, only fast half.”

Oe The Shah's Country.

More than three-fourths of the whole area of Persia is anelevated plateau, whose plains are at an average height of 4000 to 5 feet above the sea, This plateau, diversified and broken up by numerous mountain ranges, is par excellence, Sthe distinctive feature of the country, and that on which its climate, its products, and its means of communication chiefly depend. To reach it,no matter from what side it is approached, a long and rugged jascent must be made. Once, however, the

plateau is faiily reached, a comparatively easy road can generally be found from one | part of the country to another, notwithstand- ling the many Jofty mountains by which the plains are intersected. The climate is jextremely dry, and the temperature some what excessive—that is to say, very warm in summer and very cold in the more elevated parts of the winter. For the yrowth of the crops the rainfall, except in a is. insufficieui, and has to be clal irrigation system The superincumbent ereat natural reservoirs from which the irrigstion channels » their supplies. Hence it is that where the mountains most abound, as they doin the west and southwest, there also the most crops, the most abundant pasture ‘and the most numerous flocks are to be seen. Ou the other nand, the great plains of East- jern and Kastern Central Persia are more or simply deserts. Wheeled vehicles are practically non-existent. The whole trans- |port work of the country is done by beasts of | burden —camels,"raules and donkeys.
