earth acknowledged so to be by all who
have handled them. The boxes are made to
hold one, two, five or ten pounds and can be
made any size desired by the user. A large
number of orders for the various sizes have
come unsolicited from several different
states, where boxes have found their way
by shipments of butter to local dealers. The
box can be made very cheaply, and with its
undoubted superiority, the very limited
work handling and unquestioned clean
illness, the package will become the most
popular on the market
The board is first covered with paper
which protects the butter absolutely from
any contamination, then, after being thor
Oughly dried and pressed it is cut into the
desired sizes by a mammoth paper cutter.
The name of the firm, dairy or farmer, using
the hos is then printed ON the side and then
run through paraffineing machine, which
renders the material absolutely waterpro of.
The bottom and top pieces are cut and
put through the paraffineing machine and
they are then sewed together around the
bottom, on an ordinary sewing machine,
| then stapled together on the side. The
boxes are put up fol shipment in various
size crates in which the dairyman or dealer
may ship them when filled.
The head and bottom pieces of the box
are cut in stlckers, of which there are two,
and these, with appliances, cut any size de,
sired. Three envelope machines are also a
part of the plant but are not yet in use.
Frank p. Fox, of Detroit, an expert in
the manufacture of this class of goods, is
foreman of the shop and is assisted at pres.
ent by FIVE ladies and two men, James Nc
Bride being the business and Office mana
ger.
The company bought very good S-horse
power engine, but the business now requires
a larger one and 20-horse power one is be-
ing used.
A number of experiments I'm different
articles will be made and it is likely that In
short time the factory will be turning ou,
strawberry and axle grease boxes and but
ter tubs. If the contract offered the COM
pany prove satisfactory, the axle grease
boxes will be made in car load lots, and as
an immense number of them are used, II
would require large addition to the present
force. The butter tub, of which thousands
are used daily ip every state, is as yet with
the company here an experiment and IL 1t
proves the success that it indicates, large
orders could be secured
The company has the exclusive right tC
make this style of box, and with the ener
getic and careful men behind it, the bust
ness cannot fail to prove paying thing fol

Proposed Baptist Church.

The proposed rew Baptist church, If
erected, will be one of the ornamental and
permanent Improvements of the city; con-
sequently, it is to be hoped that the project
will be pushed to completion. Interest and
material help in its construction should be
broader than the society that proposes the
erection of the edifice The Baptist society
is working heroically, but it should be liber-
ally helped by our citizens, because the
work of the society is the Improvement of
our city as a whole. Their present edi-
fee is too small; the basement walls are
giving way; its side walls are cracked; it
has no system of heating and ventilation,
and every dollar spent upon repairs is so
much permanently lost.
One thing is certain, help must be prof
fered now, or the building committee may
decide to give up the enterprise. There are
many who would give rather than see that
result, and now is the time to promptly
respond.
For the benefit of our readers, we have
obtained a partial description of the pro-
posed building.
1t is to be built where the present church
and chapel now stand. 1t will extend
nearer the property lines on Ball and Mason
streets, and extend eact toward the parson-
age. 1t will be built of brick with relief of
field and cut stone. The roof will be slate
with handsome gable relief lines. The eX-
treme dimensions, outside, will be 76 by 1913
feet. The front Will be 60 feet. The width
SO feet farther to the north will be II feet;
and 23 feet farther to the north the width is
76 feet. The main entrance on Ball street
is to be 2S feet wide, comprising three
arches. The vestibule will extend across
the front giving five entrances TO the audi
torium. One of these entrances will be
from a reception room. The auditorium
will be 55 by 63 feet, with gallery along the
east and west sides. The speakers plat
form will be upon east side.
The chapel north of the auditorium will
be 3S by 81 feet, exclusive of committee
room IS by 81 feet; pastors study 16 by II
feet; library room, and Ball street vestbule.
The gallery and class rooms will extend
along the west, north and east sides. The
chapel and auditorium can be thrown to-
gether accommodating seating of from
1900 to 1400. The galleries can be reached
| by the tower vestlbule. or Ball street yesti
bule. The arrangements for organ loft and
choir are at the south of platform instead Of
| in the rear.
The basement will contain the heating and
fuel rooms, closets, cloak rooms, dressing
rooms in time of baptism, pantry, kitchen
dining room, ladies' parlor, infant class
room, etc. Very neat arrangements have
been made for observing the rites of baptism
The heating is to be steam or the fan
blast system.
There will be two entrances to church
and one to basement on the east.
The members Of the building committee
who have the immediate work i'm charge are
Chas. Rigley, ID. M. Estey, w. B. MattesOn

with each sale various other worthless

became suspicious, and ascertaining from
a druggist that Ailor's compound was
not Hoods sarsaparilla, but merely

indictments were found against him,
the jury convicted him after only thirty

If furs and clothing are put away with
the moth egg in them, all the odors in

The time when the eggs are laid and the
fatal damage done is usually before
housekeepers think of putting them
away at all. When the warm spring
days come the heavy fur coat or Jacket
is hung up in the closet lest it may be
needed again, and perhaps it is worn
once or twice and then hung up again,
and in the hurry of spring work forgot

are taken out, perhaps brushed little,
and put away smothered in camphor or
