THAWHELPSWATER,
SAYS CHIEF DAVIS
Declares Ico-Coatod Schuylkill
Ha3 Retained Cases That
Naturally Form
MAKE MORE TESTS TODAY
The 'unpalatable condition of the
Hty's water supply is clearinu uprnn
idly because of the recent thaw. Chief
Davis, of the Bureau of Water, an
nounced today.
The Ico coating over the Schuylkill
river, where 30 per cent of, the supply
obtained. 1b partly, to blamo for the
innlcasant odor and taste of tho water
noticed recently, according to Mr. Da-
V1The odor and taste aro attributed to
.I,- cases from decaying vegetation,
which, owing to thT) ice, cannot escape
from the water. Tho city's niters can
not remove gases or liquids, the chief
p0"Wo know thcro is a continual flow
nf waste and sewage into tho river,"
Mr Davis declared, "and wo know
there is decaying vegetation matter.
These factors v.cro aggravated by the
ice coating.
Continual Tests Made.
Continual tests aro being made of
toth raw and filtered water at the
laboratories at Belmont and Torrcs-
aincidentUy, the water bureau head
rave his reasons for the death of fish
in the river and in the city aquarium.
Fih. he said, take in uir through their
rills, expelling it from their mouths.
Because the ice-coating prevented
nroper aeration, the chief believes tho
fish did not obtain n sufficient nmount of
oiyscn and virtually suffocated.
"But as persons do not breathe the
way fish do." Mr. Davis continued,
"there is no danger to the human family
from that source, nnd physicians say
the infinitesimal amount of gas taken
Wto the stomach through drinking water
13 not harmful." ,
Tests of tho Schuylkill river water
arc being made today by tho State De
partment of Health nnd by the city
water bureau.
Many miles are being covered by these
tests, which may extend as far as Head
ing Above Mnnajunk there are many
mil'ls and factories' from which liquids
used in tho various industries pour into
thp stream. On account of these cs
tablishincnts, Chief Davis, said the
river is grossly polluted and should be
abandoned as a source of drinking
water.
Dr. Furbusli Starts Inspection
Dr. C. Lincoln Furbush, director of
public health, today started au inspec
tion nf the Schuylkill river, jointly with
the state Department of Health ami
municipal Department of Public Works.
The present widespread epidemic of
stomach trouble, the director said, is
probably due to tho crip aud has uo
connection with the disagreeable tnste
of city water.
"Stomach trouble, such as we aro
experiencing here," added Doctor Fur
buh, "is also prevalent in other sec
tions of the country. I know persons
suffering from this malady who have
had nothing but bottled water to drink.
This apparently would establish the
fact that the source of the disease is not
the water supply. It is probably a
.uupton of the mild form of Influenza
which is epidemic thU winter."
Tests Cover Many Miles
It nasi been found that a very largo
nmount of water is being. wasted. Di
rector Winston, of the Department of
Public Works, has ordered the whole
tale flushing of btreets stopped for the
present to cousenc the supply.
By an extension of the Queen Lane
filters and pumping station, Mr.
Winston said, the citj'a water Eupply
will be increased by 00,000.000 gallons
daily. It is most needed in the central
and southern sections of Philadelphia.

Charles Wayne Kerwood, a 'young
Philadelphia aviator, is about to pull
a stunt that will mako Stephen Brodio
look llko tho conservative bird who

Mr. Kerwood is going to ascend 3000
feet over the Golden Gate of San Fran
cisco and set fire to the planes and
body of his machine all to test out a
new fireproof coating for airplanes.
If tho plane burns up, Kerwood is
left to his own devices and the ques
tionable aid of a parachute. If tho new
coating turns out to be as fireproof as
it is hoped and he is able to bring bla
plane down In safety, ho gets $100,000.
He is betting his llfo against a hun
dred thousand dollars odds not posted.
The feat Is to tako place on March
first. If he wins the colossal bet, Ker
wood says ho is going to give up flying.
The fireproof coating haB been suc
cessfully tried out on the ground, when
the machine was "taxied" along at
thirty miles an hour. But to prove tbnt
it is effective for use, which will be
a remarkable advance in flying, it must
be thoroughly tested under actual fly
ine conditions.
The wings uud body of his machine
will first bo treated with tho new
"dope," as it is called, and then cov

material like kerosene. When the air-

At Least This Police Lieutenant Will
Say There Is
Lieutenant George 1 Boston, of the
Twenty-first district, was in conference
with porno fellow licutennuts and Cap
tain William McFadden this afternoon
when he was told that a hystcrious,
aromatic package had come for him b"
express.
He stepped out of the conference to
iiueatieatu and found sergeants and
policemen sniffing and tiptoeing about
tho station house. There was consider
able air of mystery.
Ho opened the carefully-wrapped
package. Inside was a dark glaa gallon
bottle labeled "Pure Whisky."
Tho lieutennnt called in the members
of the conference, produced somo
glasses and made ready for u "round."
But "here's how" was as far as the
enthusiasm progressed, for the "whis
key" turned out to bo colored water.
Lieutenant Boston is doing u little
detective work on the trnil of his hu
morous "friends."

This Great Linde
February Furniture Sale
Offers Bigger Money
Saving Opportunities
Than Any Other
Notwithstanding the Stringent Shortage, We Have
Enormous Quantities of All Styles and Prices
The reasons fur both these conditions are very plain and very simple. The
enormous volume of our business, coupled with our $100,000.00 a year location and
expense saving, insure absolutely the lowest prices in this section of the country. Our
well-known standing in thc trade as the largest Furniture and Carpel house in Pennsyl
vania is guarantee of the splendid quality of our immense assortments. The leading
manufacturers of America stand behind us because for 32 years we have been their
staunch allies in the development of their business. There is a personal equation in
this sale found in no other, as the following letter from one of the biggest makers will
show :
"My dear Mr. Linde:
, - "Our relations have been so intimate and pleasant that your account
is considered more in the icay of a personal matter than a business
relation. I know that our Mr. Burns, who looks after the shipping of
orders, always trys to favor you in the way of shipments. We want
you to feel free always to call upon us for service when necessary, and
anything thai we have you are welcome to at any time."
Multiply this by 47 giant factories and you have the reason why wc are packed
to the roof with the best Furniture lines in the country, bought months ago at prices
which enable us to sell for less than the factory cost today. Since these goods were pur
chased, the market price has advanced from 50 to 90 per cent. Shop around and see for
yourself what wc can save you. Camparison is our strongest advertisement. And you
will be amazed at the extent and variety of the stocks.
Store Will Be Open Monday, Wednesday and Friday Evenings
until 10 o'cloe'. for the convenience of those who cannot possibly come
during the day; but PLEASE NOTE that wc arc so crowded with cus
tomers hi the evening that unless you come early, we shall be unable lo
show you as prompt attention as wc should like.
