DISTRESS IN GERMANY Following
is an extract from letter fro-g one of the
Worlds correspondents in Germany:
Distress and discomfort prevail in Ger
many, growing out of the prolongatiOn of
the war, of which the journals dare not
speak, because no mercy is shown by this
military Government The whole country
is morally and materially in a most deplor-
able condition, and it is doubtfull how long
public indignation can be restrained by mil
itary discipline. Everywhere there is des.
olation. Tens ofthousands are in mourning.
Prussia may yet greatly injure France, but
she is so exhausted that she cannot con-
quer her. King William must soon be
under the same conditions as the Emperor
was after the battles of the I4th, 10th and
18th of August, when he dared not return
to Paris without achieving success to eff
face previous disaster King William also
seeks success before daring to return to
Berlin. Otherwise Prussian power will
collapse like the dreams of the Emperor"

PATENT RIGHT SECURED.
The Best Labor-Saving Clothes Cleaner
ever invented.
Thomas Greene, sole Proprietor of the
Patent Right for the Pacific Coast.

There are but few inventions or discoveries
which produce complete revolution IN any de-
partment of labor. To have supposed, year ago,
that the drtiest garment culd be washed clean,
in twenty thirty minutes, by boiling alone,
would have been regarded as an indication of in
sanity. But it has been demonstrated beyond any
doubt that this process not only cleans the clothes,
but that garments ihus washed become whittier and
clearer the longer it is used. Some people suggest
that clothes will get yellow after awhile. by being
washed in this way but such surposition has no
foundation in fact, and is contradicted by the
perience of every lady who has adopted this mode
of washing
Everybody who has tried the machine in Shasta
have expressed themselves highly pleased with
its operations. 1t must he to be fully appre-
eiated, its full merits cannot be properly set
forth in an ordinary advertisement
Public and private tests have been given of this
apparatus for the last six months, and more than a
million of people have witnessed its success. Ten
thousand boilers sold in New York City in less
than five onths, from stand, and at this time
the orders reach about hundred a day. Ne
ever used it as directed that did not recommend
it. 1t has been recommended by than five
thousand persons in less than six months. Among
the those of the most distinguished cit
izons of the United States but the best recommen
dation is to take the boiler and use it yourself Do
just you directed and you will be more than
satisfied. 1t appeals to us all as a matter of econ
omy, and can be shown to be the best kind of an
investment. 1t will return a yearly dividend in
cash of TWO HUNDRED PER CENT. on the
money invested. For instance, we will suppose
your white clothing such as he'd and table linen
ladies' and gentiemens' wear, and childrens' cloth
ing, only cost you $40 year. They will last twice
as long WASHED in this way as by the old method.
Thus, you actually save S20 year by investing 10
OF 200 per cent. annually. There is ho family
scarcely but spends than here stated but this
is taken a very low average of this branch of
family expense. Added to this is the great con-
venience and comfort of the thing, which, all taken
together, makes it luxury which no family can
well afford to be without.
This Boiler sells the hes: Of any article offer
ed to the public. ADybody after trying it fairly
will not let it go out of Of the house.

A ASUCCEss.-Mr. Owen of the Mercury,
week or two ago, allowed his eldest daugh-
tiers 70 commence work in his office in the
capacity to compositors. Since that time
the two young ladies have been steadily
engaged in type setting, and have proved
themselves remarkably proficient They
are now passably good printers, being able
TO "set up" manuscript copy almost cor
rectly-neither are they ''slow" they set
nearly 1000 ems per day, and seemingly
never get tired. They never had any ex-
perience at the business before the time
alluded to. The experiment of ladies'
printing in San Jose has proved success

Directions.

Fill the boiler with soft, water to within about
three inches If the top of the inside boiler. Slice
up one pound bar of good bard soap.
Bring the water to a boil, and then place the
clothes in the not water. The water will imme-
boils over raise the lid
Keep up t FIRE for twenty minutes, Then
take the clothes out and Immediately SUBS them
through in soft water. If any shade of the dirt
remains. few rubs will take it all out. Then
rinse them in clean water, wiring dry and the wash
ing is done. Give particular heed to the following
SUGGESTIONS.
The clothes need not be wet before placing them
in the Boiler. 1t is of vital importance to THOR
OUGHLY SUBS the clothing alter boiling. Every
lady knows that the least particle of suds left in
the clothes to dry will cause the clothes to look
yellow. brisk fire is important in order to Pro-
duce rapid boiling. Time may be saved by stirring
turning the clothes occasionally while boiling
The cover shonld not be removed, except when
necessary, in order to insure quick work. II the
washing be large one, the clothes should be as
sorted, dirty shirts, for instance, will require
double the time of sheets, pillow cases, napkins,
&c.
Articles much soiled,may be left in for a second
boiling. White hannels may be beautiful washed
without FULLING) by this process. They
should be put in when the water is hot, and rnsed
out in hot water.
Colored clothes should not be mixed with white
and unless the colors fast they should never be
washed by this process. The most delicate laces,
cambrics, &c, such as would nearly fall to pieces
fecty, without injury, by this process. The almost
absolute ne .essty of using soft, "brokeu,"
water, is so we'll understood as to hardly need
mention here.
No machine ever invented will entirely remove
the streaks from dirty wristbands and Collars
THIS Self washing Boiler more nearly does it than
any other device. Should shade streak remain,
it ill be found to be reduced and sofened to
disappear without the use of a wash board by
merely rubbing them with the hands, thus avoiding
all the wear and tear of clothing by washing. 1t
has been carefully estimated that clothing receives
more than ONE HALF ITS WEAR by the old
process of RUBBING. and consequently will last
twice as long if washed by this process, which
alone would pay for Boiler many times during
sin lie year, in almost any family, to say nothing
of the important consideration cf saving labor

Telegraph Lines.

1t is announced that ''pooi" has got
hold on the Western Union Telegraph for
the purpose of selling it to the Government
at big rates and that they have taken in
with them some influential politicians to
help make the sail Heretofore the owners
of that stock have been endeavoriug to
show that the government Of England
made mistake in purchasing the tele-
graph lines in the British Isles and run
ming them as it does the post Office; but
the fact is just the contrary of their state
ments. That has been an eminent success
in Great Britain-the tariff of rates is
greatly reduced and the only complaint is
that there are not lines enough to do the
Increased business. The American Gov
ernment will soon be forced, by public
= opinion, to become common carrier by
Z telegraph as it is now a common carrier by
mail. The owners of national and local
lines see this tendency and feel that if
the Congress about to meet does not take
positive action in the premises the next
one will, hence their desire to take time
by the forelook and sell at big price
The Government ought to take these
lines at fair valuation only. What will
it cost to put up as good lines? Find that
out, pay it and little moie-say twenty
per cent, additional for peace sake. But
if these existing lines cannot be had at
fair rates then it were better for the Gov
ernment to erect new ones. This matter
of Government telegraph will be pressed
the coming session and its supporters will
be numerous. 1t may not win now but
the succeeding Congress will not adjourn
without having arranged for setting Gov
eminent telegraph line in motion all over
the land The times demand such action
