—A strange fact Is told by travelers who
declare that the Arabs in the deserts of
Africa have contracted a violent dislike
to running water, and will only drink lroni
stagnant pools when on Journeys, says the
Hartford Times. This lias become so much
a matter of habit that while the most pois
onous-looking water agrees with them
perfectly pure, running water will in a
few hours make them violently sick. This
prejudice against fresh water is common
among rhe animals of the desert alao, and
is frequently acquired by European trav
elers. At first, however, when the latter
drink of stagnant wuter it produces nausea
and even fever, but when once the system

fect* them in precisely the same way as
it affects the Arabs.
