gMnnntol W»U* Supply »*•»•».
Peculiar specifications for supplying
wStoSacrWo are under du^
SSto that city. The water «to be
taken from wells at least half a mile
from the present city limits, and at least
the fif™* distance from any natural sur-
face stream or pond. The contractor is
required to guarantee "clew, sweet and
wholesome water suitable for drinking
water and domestic purposes."
X minimum of 1,000,000,000 gallons a
year is to be suppliedin such daily quan-
tities. not exceeding 8,000,000 gallons, as
may be required. At the end of five
years this minimum may l>e increased
by the city on giving six months' notice.
The water is to be delivered through a.
riveted steel or iron pipe, laid and owned
by the contractor, and delivered through
a meter. The contractor must not fur-
nish water direct to the customers, and
is to have no control whatever over the
laterals, distributing pipes or
water rates, which are to be entirely in
the hands of the city authorities.—En-
fineering Record.
i Found and Loit a Truunre.
One of the rarest books extant is ths
first edition of "Don Quixote," published
in Madrid in 1605. Recently a collector
in the City of Mexico while examining a
file of old books for sale in one of the
remoter wards of the city came across
an ancient edition of "Quixote,' but
the date concluded it was not
a first edition. Next day he discovered
by reference to his library that the book
was a genuine first edition.
He went back to find the treasure, but
it had been sold for waste paper in the
interim, and although search has been
made in every small Bhop in the city the
precious volume cannot be found. A
few years ago a California book collector
hOMht in an old bookstall there a first
folio edition of Shakespeare, paying $18
for a book worth $6,000.—New York
Times. .
RlpansTabulcs.
Ripans Tabules are com-
pounded from a prescription
widely used by the best medi-
cal authorities and are pre-
sented in a form that is be-
coming the fashion every-
where.
This elegant Buggy besides other valuable presents will be giv en
away free of charge to our customers who trade with us this fall.

Ripans Tabules act gently
but promptly upon the liver,
stomach and intestines; cure
dyspepsia, habitual constipa-
tion, offensive breath and head-
ache. One tabule taken at the
first symptom of indigestion,
biliousness, dizziness, distress
after eating, or depression of
spirits, will surely and quickly
remove the whole difficulty.
Ripans Tabules may be ob-
tained of nearest druggist.
Ripans Tabules
are easy to take,
quick to act, and
save many a doc-
tor's bill.

Bartholdl'c L«te«t Work.
M. Battholdi, the eminent sculptor, is
putting the last touches to his colossal
Work, the group which, in accordance
with the will of Baron Gruyer, is to be
erected in Switzerland in commemora-
tion of the assistance rendered by that
country to Prance during the war of
1870-1. The prompt succor afforded to
the city of Strasburg by the Swiss after
the terrible siege and the hospitable re-
ception extended to the wornout troops
of Bourbaki's army are both represented
allegorically on the monument, which
shows Switzerland covering Alsace with
one protecting arm, while with the other
ehe sustains a figure of wounded France.
This superb work is to be erected on a
public i>lace at Bale.—Chicago Evening
Post.
Tired of Skirt*.
Misa Eugenia de Forrest, an actress
who makes her home at San Jose, Cal.,
has received the sanction of the authori-
ties of San Jose to wear men's clothes in
public, and proposes to obtain a legal
right to appear in the same garb all over
the country. She made her appearanoe
on the streets of San Jose a few days
mo in a double breasted sackcoatand
waistcoat of dark material, trousers of a
striped pattern and a derby hat of the
latest style. In her hand she swung an
ebony cane. She 6ays Bhe is realizing
the dream of her life. She is tared of
•kirts, and as her stage appearances aro
mostly in male parts she knows the
neater comfort of male attirs.—Sa»
Jose Letter.
Vad* HI* father Wear Old Clothon.
"That boy of mine," eaid Mr.
Dadds, "used to be satisfied with
wearing my old clothes made over.
Perhaps he might be now, if it wasn't
for the fact that his clothes are such
an expense to me that by the time I
am through wearing my clothes
there is not enough left of them to
be worth making over." And the old
mn.n sighed as he started for a car.—
