PAPER BOTTLES.
The New Use TO Which Paper is Put-ImpOssi-
bIe to Break Paper Bottles.

The New Use 60 Which Paper is Put-ImpOssi-
bIe to Break Paper Bottles
One of the most interesting Of the
many uses to which paper has been put IS
the manufacture of paper bottles. We
have long had paper boxes, barrels and
car wheels, and more recently paper
pals, wash basins and other vessels, but
now comes a further revolution Of paper
in the shape Of paper bottles, which are
already quite extensively used for
containing such substances as ink, blu
ing, shoe dressing, glue, etc, and they
would seem to be equally well adapted
for containing a large variety Of articles.
They are made by rolling glued sheets of
paper into long cylinders, which are then
cut into suitable lengths, tops and bot
toms are fitted in, the inside coated with
q waterproof compound, and all this done
by machinery almost as quickly as
one can count. They are cheaper and
lighter than gas, unbreakable, and con-
sequently very popular with consumers,
while the fact that they require no pack
ing material, and are clean and handy
and economical, COmmends them to man
ufactuTers. Unlike glass, they can be
manufactured at all seasons. The strength
ton of this, q note of the Bank of En-
gland, twisted into a kind of rope, can
suspend as much as 329 pounds upon one
end Of It, and not be injured III the least.
There is an article made of paper, in the
shape of Q small kitchen or house truck
on wheels, used for wheeling loads around
the house. The sides and bottom of this
are made of finely compressed paper,
and 1t is capable Of bearing a weight
Of i've tons. There are bath tubs ana pots
made in the same manner by compress
ing The paper made out of linen ffbers,
which is painted over with a composition
which becomes part of the paper and is
fireprOOf. The tubs never leak, and they
may be put on the fire aud viii not burn.
It is impossible tossFeak them, as you
ssSff4 beat on them Yftha hammer and not
in lnEs=saem in theSlsast.
