reason why the smith should strike
blow at the little nlail head as strou
as he would deliver at the head of
spike or an oak beam. The hoof o
the horse is not an oak stick, and th
delicately pointed and slender heade

yet you will see the nailer whack awa
at them as if it was a matter of life an
death to get them entirely set in at tw
blows of his hammer. Insist that th
nailer shall drive his nails slowly an
steadily, instead of using violence. I

no great injury Is done. It can b
withdrawn and a new one substituted

way prevents all such care, and expose
the horse to temporary, if not perman

eroised in clinching the nails. Neve
allow a smith to touch a rasp to the out
er surface of the hoof. Nature ha
covered it with a thin filament of enmi

ild To Purify Water.--The use of impure
Ad water Is the primary cause of many
ale fevers and other diseases. There are
in dl&ierent methods used for its purilica
ay tion ar.ong which are boiling, distilla
aw tion and filtration, the latter being the
'ed fayorite method. Marsh waters in
ock many instances may be so far improved
By as to fit them for drinking and culinary
gi purposes by steeping in them certain
ng herbs or by rubbing the inside of the
.es kettle they are to be boiled In with
y- bitter seeds and herbs. In' China and
ud Japan the tea plant is used for this
ed purpose, and bitter almond on the
Is, banks of the Nile. A writer in an
til English paper gives his experience in
en the purification of water which Is as
)ss follows:-"Difforent waters liUe dif
of ferent diseases, require different treat
of ment to purify them, and all waters,
ry no matter how impure they may be,
it. can be made quite pure for drinking or
ut other doinestic purposes without distil
20 lation, providing the proper materials
th be used and suilicient time allowed the
lie re-agents to act; but in many samples
,n of water I have found distillation to be
i- the quickest and cheapest mode of
er purlifying them. All filters in use,
es that I an aware of, only purify the
of water from solid impurities nech:ani
nh- cally suspended in the water. 'I'ie
ih following is a description of a fillter
s. that I have often used, which purifles
th foul water from organic Impurities

ol pended solids :-'i'ake amy suitable ves
o sel with a perforated false bottom and
39 cover it with a layer of alimal char

-n of iron lilings, borings or turnings, the
lo flimer the better, mixed with charcoal
ii dust; on the top of the filings place a
"e layer of line, clean, siicious sand and
e you have it perfect filter. Allow the
is water to filter slowly through the
s- above filter and you will produce a re
s. markably pure drinking water. Before
. placing the Iron filings in the filter
d they should be well washed in a hot
s solution of soda or potash to remove
I- oil or other impurities, then rinse them
V in clean water; the filings should be
r, mixed with an equal measure of ine
ie charcoal. If the water Is very foul it
must be allowed to filter very slowly.
'Tiie deeper the bed of iron filings

above Is a slm'le, cheap and very efll

a of, and it has the advantage of being
K tree to every one who chooses to make

and I am not aware of any other person
e having done so. I think I an the only
1 person who has ever used it. The
1 foulest ditch water treated as above Is
rendered quite pure and lit for drInk
ing. I may mention that I have made
it a practice during the last twenty
e seven years to boil all my drinking
I water. It is the safest planth for a man
moving from place to placc. You can
not always carry a filter and chemicals
about with you, but you canm always
manage to get boiled water. P'eople
talk about it being vapid and tasteless,,

In some experiments lately made by
- M. Piolucaro on the effects of poisoning
r by sulphide of carbon, he often found
- in the blood-vessels drops, apparently
8 of this substance, condensed anew after
-absor'ption by the lungs. Still, the
t great volatility of the substance renh

since obtained like results with other
w ihich are much less volatile than suil
phide of carbon, especially spirit of
turp)entine and nitro-bonzine. The
chemical determiniation, indeed, was as
y diflleult as before; but from the fact
'thamt it was only inl anImals which had
