The new patent Climax Washer, just intro
duced in Los Angeles, is self-acting ma
chine, and dispels all dread of wash-day. 1t
stops the use Of the wash-board; it stops all
the handwriting and labor in washing; it
neither rubs, nor scrubs, pounds, nor man
giles, and therefore neither wears, tears, nor
Injuries the most delicate fabrics. 1t washes
any clothing, no matter how dirty, from the
coarsest blanket to the finest lace, in from 25io
40 minutes. AS we are selling the Washers on
their own merits, we will deliver them to you
for your approval. If they do not perform as
represented, you need not keep them. Call
and get one on trial, at the DOLLAR STORE,
lJ2 Main street, Los Angeles.

THE WOES OF WOMEN IN SLEEPING.
CARS.

The woes ef women in sleeping-cars
form the subject of vigorous woman pro-
test in the Graphic. After alluding to the
trial to a woman of delicate feeling in be.
ing obliged to sleep in the same room
with twenty or thirty men, the writer de-
scribes vividly The incidental annoyances
of such situation. "She cannot undress
in public. Of course, and therefore has to
| rid herself OF her outer garments after she
has climbed into her berth and drawn the
curtains. OF the difficulty of this opera
tion any woman who has tried it can speak
in pathetic terms; but it Is easy in cam
parison with the difficulty of getting into
ones clothes in the morning. When this
| task, however, has been accomplished,
the unhappy lady passenger, with frowz-
led hair, tumbled clothing, and face d.
versified with coal-dust, has to run the
gauntlet Of dozen or two pair of mascu-
line eyes before she can reach the wash
room at the end of the end Of the car"
But according to this vivacious lady, the
annoyance which she suffers from being
compelled either to sleep in her clothes OF
else to shed "her boots and hoop-skirts In
the presence of car full of horrifed
men, is not greater than that which comes
from the necessity of contemplating q
crowd Of "halfdressed men, who are en-
gagged, with the charming indifference OF
their sex, in putting on boots and collars,
or in watching with anxiety for glimpse
at some lady similarly occupied" and she
protests with vigor born Of righteous ma
ternal indignation against system which
forces young girls to become thus "famil-
iarized with that unattractive object, 3
sleepy and unwashed man."

opening price was 1929, from which it declined 10

Later the market became strong recovered the
opening price buyings of short contractors, and
eventually passed up to 1884, the rise being encour-
aged by the advance in foreign exchange. Loans
cost g. g. and 81 per cent for carrying. The London
markets closed weak and lower, and the Bank of
