rRESH WATER FROM OCEAN
All Seaboard Cities May Be Abund
antly Supplied by Springs
in the Seas.
Suggest ion of great possibil
*ies of fresh water supply is given
iti a paper by Prof. C. IL. Hitch
rock, of I hut mouth college, in the
jKnn Francisco Chronicle. It is a
study of fresh water springs in the
«cean and within a few miles of
<he shore. Enough is known of the
mis fence of such springs to war
rant the belief that there must lr
n-ast quantities of fresh water dis
charged in this way through un
discovered springs, and perhaps
rlose to big cities and to fertile
*oil where the water is needed for
drinking or for irrigation. Some
«»f these springs show artesian
renditions and will rise Ml' to 4“J
feet by the pressure of the supply.
There is a porous water-bearing
stratum beneath an impervious
cover. Piercing this by boring
gives access to a water supply
Shat will rise quite a height with
out pumping.
One of the most notable exam
§des of this condition is at the is
land of Onhn. The plantations on
1liis island have made valuable
■useof the water for irrigation pin
poses. < »n one plantation ij.Otld
ticres are so irrigated. Though th<*
.pumps work continuously the wa
tier never fails. Close to the coast
Jine no pumps are needed, as the
water rises 22 feet. At Honolulu
Jn.ich water will rise 42 feet. At
4)ahu they reach this waterbear
iug stratum by boring AtM> to ton
feet. Some of these springs well
op so powerfully as to prevent the
ocean water from eommingliug
with the fresh in cases where the
artesian water tinds its own out
let through a crevice in the imper
'vious strata. Powerful streams
■are said to discharge millions of
.gallons of water through artificial
•openings very near the seashore.
*These ate believed to continue
»onie distance out to sea and then
io well up mingled with the ocean
liillows.
l’rof. Joseph he Conte in his
“Geology" mentions the existence
of fresh water springs rising in
■the ocean near Hawaii. Around
1 he Florida coast there is much of
•this water, and at many places it
ch bored for and utilized. The
wonderful Silver spring, which
hursts a full grown navigable riv
*er immediately from its source, is
itiven as an example of the under
ground conditions that produce
ihe underocean spring. It is the
rainfall of a region faraway, per
imps, and the water tillered
through miles of sand. Elise Ke
«'lus, the great geographer, speaks
of such springs existing east of
the Isle of Pines. All this sug
gests the possibility that in the fu
Jure many big seaboard < ities mas
discover that they can obtain an
abundant supply of pun* drinking
water almost at their doors bv
searching under the ocean for
what is now going to waste and
mixing with the brine. It certain
Jy stands to reason that i> so many
outbursts of fresh water in the
*»ca are abends known there must
S>e others yet to be discovered.
Child's Image on Bank-Notes.
The design for l In* new Ansi ruin
live kronor bank notes, which
Jiave recently been issued, is re
markable for the picture of an
unusually beautiful child’s head
■which forms its chief ornament.
»The model for this head was the
■son of 1’rinz Franz Josef Rohan,
whom the artist saw one day in
Hie street, and with whose beauty
he was so much struck that he
-asked for the child’s name and ob
tained the parents' permission to
make a drawing of him for this pur

SETTING THE CLOCK AHEAD
A Senseless Practice That Is Met
With in a Great Many
Homes.
It is a common thing to tlnd the
clocks in nine out of ten house
holds either 15 minutes or half an
hour fast, and should you happen
to be in a hurry or mention the
fact that you have to be going,
you are at once reassured by the
fact that you have no cause to
hurry, as the clock is so much
ahead of the time, says the New
York News.
Has it ever occurred to you
why clocks are usually put ahead.
Some physicians have said that it
is due to laziness, for it is such a
satisfaction to the lazy man to
And when he has to get upat seven
in the morning and strains bis
half-closed eyes to look at the
clock, that it is a little fast.
Said a watchmaker when asked
about the subject:
“Yes, it is a peculiar thing writh
most people to put their clocks
fast, and while there may be some
satisfaction in it when it comes to
dozing a iittje longer, there is real
ly no advantage in it, for when
you wake up, say, at six and glance
at the clock and it registers six
the fact remains that it is a half
hour fast. While this may make
you feel easier, knowing that you
still have 30 minutes to doze, I
confess I don’t see much advan
tage in it.
1 ‘‘Why not have the clock right?
It is the same tiling in the end.
‘•Suppose railroads were to put
this into practice, how many
trains do you think people would
miss thereby? This putting clocks
fast is really only a pleasant form
of deception which people like to
pract ice on 1 hemselves, but it does
more harm than good.”
