HOW TO TEST WATER Every one knows and admits the necessity for pure water When you are away from home, and are not sure of the character of the water supply, it would not be a bad idea to make a few simple teses. The result* may prove that it wa* decidedly worth while to take the trouble, says the New York Sun Here are two test* that you can make very easily: Fill a tumbler of water, drop in i tump of white sugar, cover it with a saucer, and let it stand overnight on the bricks at the side of the range, on the kitchen mantelpiece, or, in fact, anywhere where the temperature will not sink below sixty degrees If next morning the contents are clear, the water is pure If. on the other hand, the liquid is cloudy, some source of contamination is indisputably proved The second test is to drop a few grains of permanganate of potash into a tumbler of water, cover, and let it stand for an hour If the water is still of the bright rosy color to which the chemical turned it, it is perfectly safe for drinking; if it is of a brown ish color, it is impure, although the impurity may be of the kind that boil ing will rob of its power to harm.

It is not till such a time as that that one knows the need of friends, and it is not till such a time as that that one knows how many friends he has. In this instance we were sur prised to find people all over the county giving fine support, who were practically unknown to us. This was indeed cause for much gratitude.
