THE VALUE or BOILED WAI ER.
In a article in _Cao***k*o\~? on scientific cook*
eiy Mr. VV. Mattieu Williams called attention
tothe daagerof using drinking water tall of
organic Imparities. Such water, he says, sup
plies nutriment to those mieroacupic abomtoa
lions, the tnurocucci, lnniili, bacteria,etc., which

According tc 'Ihe J'niblrr a durable find inex?
pensive method of employing papier-mache as

and oilier door earnings, has been introduced,
the simplicity of the process being also an ad?

cracks are then filled with paper putty, made by

flour, vvuter and gnund alum, that is, tonne
