Fountains in the Deserted Palace.

The modern hydraulic engineer has done great work in India with his caqals, dams and reservoirs, yet centuries ago just as great was done. A deserted palace built 800 years ago is an example. Fountains are in many rooms and splash in the lovely gardens. In a room lined with mirrors sheets of water fall into marble pool^, lighted by lights behind the water, and fountains sparkle from lights within them. The people paid and the kings enjoyed. Here in Terre Haute water is piped to the remotest cottage. For a dollar or half a dollar a month water can be had this hot weather to splash in, to sprinkle, to make fountains in the yard, to cool off. A house without a pipe to connect it with the Wabash river is not complete, nor as comfortable as it ought to be. It is not even as healthy as it should be. Filtered water is the only always safe water. Sanitary experts and doctors affiirm this. Terre Haute water rates for residences are as low as the average of all cities, and lower than many. Counting health and labor-saving, it is cheaper to pay fot piped filtered water and sprinklers than to go without.

Where Ready Money Is Scarce."

In the British settlement in the great Chinese city of Shanghai ready money is practically unknown. After you have had lunch at a restaurant you calmly get up and walk cut without a thought of payment in cash. Some time later in the day a coolie arrives at your residence with a tiny slip of paper—a "chit," as they call it—simply a memorandum of the amount You get a shave at your barber's. The same system is carried out You purchase a newspaper or a buttonhole bouquet, a "chit" is the result The very shoeblack does not ask for coppers, but brings his bill at the end of the month.—Loudon Answers.
