Description:Excerpt from Water Purification Hygienically Considered Or even one-fourth as hard as this. It should be mentioned that the salts present in the water which we drink do not count for much in the total amount needed daily by the human body (nearly two Ounces of salts being required), as that amount is abun. Dautly supplied by a mixed diet. The daily amount of water swallowed by a healthy man averages about a gallon. This quantity of good natural water usually does not contain more than ten grains of salts, and a mineral water having one hundred grains of salts to the gallon is altogether too strong for large amounts of it to be tolerated. A slight proportion of lime is hygienically desirable in water-supplies, for it restricts the tendency of the water to act upon metals. A very soft water more readily takes up lead, for in stance, from lead pipes in which it is conveyed. A very soft moorland water, especially if acid and well oxygenated, is more apt to cause lead-poisoning to develop than is the case with limy waters.
