This is nonsense. No drink can be better and safer than distilled water, but, as has been said,' it - is beyond the reach of the average family. The other means is to boil, the water. This is absolutely safe and perfectly harmless. Objection has been made that boiling for fifteen of twenty minutes does not destroy all the -germs in water, nor does it. Some germs, which are provided with desistant spores, may star'.ive heat so applied ; but none of the or- dinarily dangerous germs, such as those of typhoid and dysentery, can resist boiling -temperature for twelve minutes, and such water is safe to drink. -_ . Boiled water is inspid because much of the air has been expelled,, int this is easily remedied. After boiling the water should be poured into clean quart bottles, which have been sterilized - being boiled in a separate vessel, each bottle being only half-filled. It is then corked' and well shaken for a few minutes, b,' which means the water is again aerated and -made potable. Ice should not be added to this water, but the bottle can be kept in the refrigerator until it is need- ed. ---Youth's Companion.. THE SPIDER -WI -Ai FALLACY.
