The waterworks system is owned by the town, and upon an investment of $f!n.000 there is realized annually a rt profit of 7 per cent after the expense of maintenance, improvement and royalties have been paid. Some fifjht years ago Norman was hard pressed for water. Numerous 1 0,!s hPn punk In the west part of the town with a total output of only 25.0O0 gallons a day. The building of a pipe line to the South Cnfdian riv er nt great cost was bein discussed whf-n O. Tj. Abbott, a farmer, said that if tho town would enter into a con-tra'-t to pay him or his heirs a royalty of 15 cents on every 1.000 gallonsof water consumed he would undertake to provide a water supply of not less than lOOrfiO gallons a day. and at the end of ten years the wells should be- j come the property of the town. Nor man accepted the offer, and Abbott entered into n partnership with M. L. Ha worth, a contractor. Abliott esa minted ihe topography of Norman and decided that prospects were fcest ne.ir the site of the present rni!roj:d station, close to the business center of town. At the appointed time Abbott appeared on the ground with a forked branch of a birch tree. Hold ing the "water witch" firmly In his two hands, he moved from place to place, while a crowd watched him. Suddenly the birch bent toward the earth. "There." Abbott ssld. "we will find water." To assure himself that no mistake had been mnde he undertook second survey, and at the same spot the birch bent a second time, so vio lently that some of Its bark was twist ed o?T in the fanner's hands. waterwitch was right. Abbott was so jubilant that he gave I a bond at once for the fulfillment of I his contract. He sunk a well at a cost j of ?4,0C0 and at a depth of 240 feet struck a vein of excel ietit water with ! a Cow of 80,000 gallons a day. Another j well was sunk to a depth of 400 feet beside the first one and a further dally Sow of 50.000 gallons obtained. Nor man is using 105.000 tralions a day and pays Abbott's heirs more than $15 a day in royalties. The wells become the property of the town in about two years and a half. The full capacity of the wells has never been tested. Neither drought nor flood changes the level at which the water stands, nor has the heaviest pumping shown any diminution in the supply. The water Is very cold. ITALIAN JEWS DIMINISH. Total About Half That Shown In 1873 Census. What has become of the Jewish pop ulation of Italy? The latest census in dicates that there are no more than 170,000 Jews In that country. In 1870 they numbered 300.000. and by the natural laws of Increase, statls- tUJans say, that number should now be about 50 per cent more. Striking decreases In the Jewish communities are noted in single cities, such as, for Instance. Pisa, an ancient site of He- bralc learning. This city had until comparatively re cent times a considerable Jewish pop ulation, with famous schools and a great printing establishment of world wide reputation, the property of the Jewish community, where the best edi tions of the Talmud and other works of Hebraic lore were produced. Ac cording to Pr. P.loch. the demand for works in Hebrew has declined so ; much of late years throughout the ! world that the printing establishment j got Into financial difficulties and has f recently been taken over by the gov ernment, the result being that it3 pure- I !y Hebraic character has been lost. A sulwwriptlon is now being raised mTnnTir Tf,-n t.,, fn- th- nrnAnn sponsible for the great decline of Jew ry in Italy.

Then wash day la merely a matter of gathering the soiled clothes together. When our wagon calls, wash day Is over as far aa you are concerned. When tbe clothes are returned they will be spotlessly clean and delightfully fresh. The colors will be bright, the buttons will be on, there will be no rips or teara. When you consider the expense of washing, the price you pay to help, the cost of fuel, the discomfort and aggra vation, you will say our way is truly economical.
