Good Blood Means good health, and Hood's Sarsaparilla has an unapproached record as a blood-purifier. It effects Its wonderful cures, not simply because it contains sarsaparilla but because it combines the utmost remedial values of more than 20 different ingredients. There is no real substitute for it. If urged to buy any preparation said to be 'Must as good" you may be ' sure it is inferior, costs less to make, and yields the dealer a larger profit. Gat Hood's oaraaparilla today. Id usnal liquid form or In chocolated tablet known as Sarsatabs. Drew the Line, Baron Munchausen bad just told one ef his stories, and somebody in the crowd had questioned the truth of It "That's all right," said the baron; "I know I'm a liar. But I lie merely for fun. I don t lie either for spite or for profit. I'm not a memoer of any Ananias Club." Thus, while contributing to the Incun abula of unveracity, he escaped the Im putation conveyed by the short and ugly word. English mercantile marine, which formi wore than one-half of the whole world'i shipping, brings that country about $450, 000,000 every year.

Water Supply in Many Cases Found Unnecessarily Polluted. E. F. Pernot, Oregon Agricultural College. ' Corvallis. The condition in which I find water received from various parts of the state warrants my calling the attention of the public to the unsanitary conditions which must exist surrounding their water supply. Some samples of water taken in storile bottles under asceptic precautions, contain as high as 63,580 germs per cubic centimeter (a teaspoon holds about five cubic centimeters of I water and an ordinary drinking glass about 225 cubic centimeters). A glass ful of such water would therefore con tain 14,305,500 living germs. While it is true that many varieties of these germs are not directly disease produc ing, the continued introduction of such large quantities cf them into the sys tem lowers vitality and increases sus ceptibility to the disease producing types when they gain access to the body. Water containing so many or I ganisms carries also, in solution, the 1 ptomaines from the putrefaction of the organic matter in which they grew. These large number of organisms gen erally find their way into open wells by , surface drainage and where they can pass, so may. the disease producing types pass also. The waters from driven wells are comparatively free from organisms. An open well is an abomination and is not in keeping with our present under standing of the laws of sanitation. Tb rjnpnrinrt nriopi, how run wo hot ter our condition. Where a well is the only means of obtaining water, let it be dug to the water bearing stratum, wall it up with brick laid in cement for ten feet, arch it over with the pump pipe and arch well cemented in, fill the remainder of the hole, which may be 15 to 20 feet, with clay well tramped down and the result will be a bottomless brick jug, deep under ground, into which no surface water, I worms nor animals can penetrate. The I water from such a well is as pure as can be obtained from the locality in , which it is situated. 1 There are many families living in the country who should enjoy the best I of health, but who are always ailing, lne cause of ill health may. as a rule, be traced to their use of polluted water produced by the unsanitary condition of their surroundings. But few homes have proper drainage from sinks and 1 baths, dish water is thrown out of the back door on the ground near the well, garbage is similarly disposed of to de 1 compose and drain into the well. Wash water containing filth that would not be tolerated on the clothing is also emptied on the ground to drain into the well. Most of the open wells situ ated near the house or barn are but I cesspools. It is the lowest point in its vicinity into which liquid's drain I Frequently a privy is located within a stone s throw of an open'well. When the water table rises to the surface of the ground, as it always does during ine winter in western Oregon, all sur face water is contaminated, and, as the water level lowers, the open wells be come reservoirs for the drainage. The ordinary stone or brick wall of an open well only serves the purpose af preventing the caving in of the earth and in no sense acts as a filter. We have received samples of water from open wells, situated near barn yards or dwellings, which were loaded with organisms that are instrumental in decomposing manure. The samples gave strong reactions of ammonia by cnemicai analysis and were even tinted with the color of liquid manure. One particular sample was thus polluted from a flower bed near the house, the flower bed having been heavily ma nured. In localities where water is piped in to the house and there is no sewer, the toilets should be connected with a prop erly constructed septic tank and the effluent should be piped a lonsr distance from the well and empty on the surface of the ground, where sun and air may still further purify it If an open clos et must be used, a concrete vault, well ucmeiibcu, Duuum uo cunsixucteu, in stead of a mere hole in the ground, and lime irequentiy tnrown into it to pre vent the breeding of flies. Earth clos ets have been very successful and con sist of galvanized iron trays or tubs that May be emptied away from the premises; dry earth or ashes should be used in connection with them to absorb moisture and suppress odor. It is well known that flies breed in human and animal manure : for exam ple, the deposits of human excreta are often seen to be a crawling mass of maggots, these are the larvae hatched from the eggs deposited by flies, from this they pans into the pupa stage and again emerge as Mies with the return oi warm weatner. These flies enter ourpiwellings, walk upon our food and directly transmit the organisms from excreta to our food. Contanimation does not cease at that, for we have definitely proven that the organisms which the flies take into their bodies from the excreta are not destroyed by their digestion, and passing from their bodies with the excreta the germs util ize this excreta for food and multiply. Therefore a fly speck containing fifty germs will increase its numbers fifty fold. If perchance the organism happens to be the typhoid bacillus, a fly speck upon an apple, or other food, will eventually contain thousands of germs, j Save the Babies. SNPAUT MORTALITY is something frightful. We can hardly realize that of all the children born in civilized countries, twentytwo per cent., or nearly one-quarter, die before they reach one year; thirtyseven percent., or mora than one-third, before they are five, and one-half before they are fifteen! We do not hesitate to say that a timely use of Castoria would save a ma jority of these precious lives. Neither do we hesitate to say that many of these infantile deaths are occasioned by the use of narcotic preparations. Drops, tinctures and soothing syrups sold for children's complaints contain more or less opium, or morphine. They are, in considerable quantities, deadly poisons. In any quantity they stupefy, retard circulation and lead to congestions, sickness, death. . Castoria operates exactly the reverse, but you must see that it bears the signature of Chas. H. Eetcher. Castoria causes the blood to circulate properly, opens the pores of the skin and allays fever.

This we have conclusively demon' strated by hatching flies in a sterile box, then feeding them with bread or sugar saturated with cultures of the typhoid bacilli, then allowing them to excrete upon apples, cabbage leaves, other material that gives off moisture, The fly speck, after some time, as sumes the form of a colony and is round to De loaded with living typhoid bacilli, showing that they had passed mrougn tne ny uninjured and had mul tiplied abundantly in the fly's deposit It is well known that milk is an ideal food for typhoid bacilli, and for that reason should be well puardad from the invasion of flies.

Dr. J. A. Parker, of Kansas City, Mo., says: "Your Castoria holds the esteem of the medical profession in a manner held by no other proprie tary preparation. It is a sure and reliable medicine for Infants and chil dren. In fact. It is the universal household remedy for infantile ailments." Dr. H. F. Merrill, of Augusta, Me., says: "Castoria is one of the very finest and most remarkable remedies for infants and children. In my opinion your Castoria has saved thousands from an early grave. I can furnish hundreds of testimonials from this locality as to Its efficiency; and merits." Dr. Norman M. Geer, of Cleveland, Ohio, says: "During the last twelve years I have frequently recommended your Castoria as one of the best preparations of the kind, being safe in the hands of parents and very ef fective In relieving children's disorders, while the ease with which such a pleasant preparation can be administered is a great advantage."
