SHOULD SATISFY THE PuBLic.—In
order to relieve all doubt in the minds
of the most skeptical Messrs Garbrick &
Tate, the Coleville' ice-men, have just
done a very wise thing in having a
block of their latest harvested ice ana-
lyzed by Prof. G. G. Pond, head of the
department of chemistry at The Penn-
sylvania State College.
Prof. Pond is a scientist of note and
his report, published in another column
of this issue, is the best testimonial
that could possibly be desired as to the
purity end healthfoiness of the Cole-
ville ice.
There is no reason that its use should
be curtaiied on account of the typhoid
epidemic in that vicinity as the State
Board of Health officers long ago de-
clared that there iz nothing wrong with
the water in Buffalo run and that the
trouble possibly arose from a spring fed
by a polluted mountain stream that is
several hundred feet below the inlet to
the ice pond.
This action on the part of these ener-
getic ice-men should set all minds at
rest.
