two outward revolving rolls, composed
of solid emery, which are flooded with a
spray of water, carrying off the 6brilized
pulp in stream through revolving
screens to the tank or stuff chest in the
basement. It is then pumped up into
vat that forms part of the wet machine.
In this vat is constantly revolving a

makes between rolls, for different pur-
poses, a continual circuit of the wet ma

heavy roll, called the concha; between
the two, where they meet, the cylinder
leaves the pulp, with most Of the water
pressed from it. ~
The pulp now makes its appearance
on the felt above the concha roll in a
beautiful sheet, thirty-eight inches in
width, and is carried along in steady

two heavy rollers, the upper iron, the

it up, and when sufficient thickness is
attained is cut off by knife being
pressed to the roll, attached to the ma
chime for that purpose. It now leaves
the roll in thick white sheet, which is
received by the boy in attendance on
table conveniently attached to the ma
chine, and folded into sheets fourteen
by twenty-six inches. It is then placed
on scales until the weight is one hundred
pounds, when it is placed in the press
and firmly tied into square, compact
bundles. It is now ready for shipment
to the paper mill, to be made into print

found a ready sale.

Home Influence.

It was NAPOLEON who said that the
character and fate of the child was the
work Of the mother. Largely this is
true, though not in sense to exclude
the influence OF the father, especially
in the case of boys. Tho child Is often
left to the mothers care. A double
duty is hers; to that which God gave Is
added that which man shifted upon
her, and with her rests the whole work
OF preparing her child for the grave
encounters of life. In how many
homes does mothers intercourse
with her children alternate between
caressing indulgence and pettish fault
findingp In how many are the bodies
pampered and dressed. children rc-
duced to mere ornaments TO crafty
paternal vanity, while the affections
are thwarted, and all the highest pos
sibilities of the mind either uncultured
or repulsed. Girlhood and boyhood

Sanitary Condition Of Farm-houses.

Farmers who are about to build
houses, by observing certain precaution-
airy measures win greatly mitigate all
sickness arising from malaria, such as
sgue or intermittent fever and neural
gia. The farmhouse should be situated
not only on high ground that has q dry
surface, but the subsoil ought also to be
dry. In q word, it should have per-
feet drainage, natural or artificial. The
drainage Of the ground about the house
is of great importance, and this
should Be directed away from the well
that supplies the water for domestic use.
A whole chapter might be written on
the evils resulting from drinking water
from wells that are supplied with sur
face water and the fltering of slop-
drains, etc. In districts in near prox-
unity to rivers, marshes or other sources
of malaria, account should be taken of
the direction of prevailing winds, so
that the house will not be erected on the

A Hint for Mothers.

It is not an uncommon thing for we'll
bred and intelligent women to make the
mistake of speaking of their children in
their presence as if having ears they
hear not. Where is the man who can
not look back to childhood and recall
distinctly the delightful feeling of i'm
portance with which he thrilled as he
became conscious that he was the SUBJ
iect of conversational How many times
their bright sayings are repeated before
them in way that tends toward undue
self-esteem. /" Mamma, you haven't told
Cousin Libbie what l said the other
day." a small boy said reproachfully to
his mother, and she being reminded Of
it told over some very wise remarks he
had made, but their charm was lost as
one noted the avidity with which they
were listened to by the young man him

ceeds on the assumption that il she

to see how many men and women appear

bring their own childhood near enough
to be of any service to them in their re-
lations to their own children. Another
one day sitting beside sick child told a
neighbor that "she had very bad
spell about two o'clock in the morning |;
if we can get her past this hour without
another such attack, we shall hope she
will get WELL" I submit to every right
feeling person if this was not downright
cruelty; the poor, nervous child, with
excited imagination, could hardly get
past that hour without increased suffer

with what constant care we have to seek

ChebOygan and Gross village State
road.

We hear that Mr.. Robinson, the con-
tractor for building the west end of the
Cheboygan and cross village road has
force Of thirty men and four teams at
work on his contract and is making
good progress having five miles COM
pleted and which he expects to have in
spected and accepted next week. He
thinks he would have no trouble in COM
pleting his part of the work this fall and
says he would do so if Mr.. Sweet, the
contractor for the ChebOygan end of the
road, would complete his portion. We
are informed that the work on this end
is tagging and is not being pushed in a
manner that would indicate an inten-
tion on the part of Mr.. Sweet to COM
plete it this fall. Mr.. Sweet claimed
to have four miles of the work finished
and commissioner Haviland came up and
inspected it, but we understand refused
to accept of it, on account of it not be-
ing built as well as the contract required
it to be. This road is very much needed
and we regret that it was not pushed
forward to completion last year, as Or
iginally contemplated. The settlers in
the section through which it runs have
been put to great inconvenience for the
want of it, in many cases being obliged
to travel miles out of their way in order
to do their trading.

Which Is the Liar

Our cotemporary must have a very
poor opinion of the intelligence of the
citizens of Cheboygan when it states
that the TRIBUNE pretended 10
have interviewed Capt. Shields, CfN
the barge Jessie Linn, statement that
every reader of this paper knows to be
false, as we never said or intimated that
we had interviewed him upon the sub
ject Of the disaster to the Linn. Our in
formation was derived from the crew of
the Linn and from reliable parties re-
siding here in Cheboygan who had visit
ed the craft and seen her condition.
However, representative of the TRIB-
UNE did interview Capt. Shields and he
positively stated that they did make sail
after the tOw-line parted, and tackled so
as to clear Spectacle reef, after which
her sails were split and her booms car
ried away. 1t is evident to all that our
contemporary does lack for cheek.

Quick Work.

Last Sunday at 2, p. M, the captain of
the schooner, Lady Dufferin, called upon
Capt. Brown, of the tug Cuyler, and
wanted him to tow the schooner out to
the reef where he had left his large an
chOr and about thirty fathoms of chain.
Capt. Brown told him it was not neces-
sary to take the vessel out to recover
the anchor and chain, but if he would
send his crew to assist he would go out
with the Cuyler and get it. Nearly two
hours were spent in looking for the
bouy, which was merely cedar tie, and
as there were quite number of ties
floating around it made it difficult to
find the one used for buoy, but they
succeeded in finding it at last, and the
chain was hove on board, with the an
chOr at the Cuyler's hawser pipe, and it
was brought in and dropped under the
bow of the Dufferin, the Cuyler getting
back to the dock before sun down. The
anchor was taken from four fathoms of
water and weighed 1900 pounds.

More Help for the Fire Sufferers.

In addition to the contributions men,
toned last week, for the fire sufferers,
the st. Marys Catholic church, through
Father Van Genip, contributed $35, the
Baptist society $12.
The ladies of Cheboygan have sent
three boxes of bedding and clothing,
valued at $3.50, $71.50 of which were
contributed by the ladies of Duncan
city, to the fire sufferers. This is said
to be very low estimate as to value.
Mrs. Lewis, who has been staying in the
village for short time, donated about
$50 worth of millinery goods. There is

be sent, beside large quantity of cooked
