WOMAN AND HOME.
THE ELECTRIC QUILT.

Il Enables Mllady to Take n Turkish Bath
In the Parior.
You can take Turkish bath in the
parlor. With the electric quilt which
has been invented by Snedekor, the
London electrician, and member OF the
Royal society, you can not only save
Yourself the expense of bath ticket
but you can battle amid all the com
forts of home. All you have to do Is
to wrap yourself up in quilt, turn OH
n stopcock and wait. And you do not
have to wait long, either. In 80 seconds
from the time the stopcock is turned
YOU are sweltering in heat oil lou ue-

out visible sign of heat, and, better
than all, without inconvenience to any
one else who may happen to be in the
room.
One of the peculiar sights that may
be seen in the parlor of house where
the new electric quilt is kept is that OF
woman with thick Turkish quit
around her, taking Turkish bath,
with nil the windows of the room open'
while persons standing within loot
of her are shivering from the chilly at
mosphere outside. The owner OF the
Quilt may also use it as an ordinary bed
covering.
The invention is called the thermo'
gen, but it is common quilt all the
same. The only difference is, that IN
addition to the cotton, wool or eidei
down of which it is made, there is ais'
n coil of wire. The coil is bent ant
has many joints, so that it will move
freely and in any direction like Goa
Of mail in olden times. 1t is embedded
IN the soft body of the quilt, and through
It current Of electricity is permitte'

heat, but the heat is moderated by tn

Mr.. George Briggs, of Moore, Okla,
suffered almost indescribable torment
for three long years. Neuralgia held
him captive. The right side of his face
was SO badly affected that the slightest
touch would cause the unfortunate
man intense agony. For several weeks
he could open his mouth Just wide
enough to be fed with liquid nourish-
ment, and in this manner life was sus-
tanned. Read the following extract
from his letter "Truth is stranger
than Fiction"
NEURALGIA, CATARRH AND RHEUMA.
TISM COMPLETELY CURED.
George Briggs, of Moore, Oklahoma,
writes that P. P. P, Lippman's Great
Remedy, cured him of catarrh, facial
neuralgia and rheumatism, after three
years of intense suffering. The pain
lay in his cheek bone and temple, down
the right side of his face, along his
upper lip, and from the slightest touch
he suffered agonies for weeks at time
Could only open his mouth wide enough
to admit teaspoon, and any acid in
his food would put him In torture. He
had consultation of the best physi-
clans in Texas, but all to no purpose.
Catarrh and rheumatism were also
causing him much trouble, until he
tried P. P. P. He says he is well and
will swear that there are no cases of
neuralgia, catarrh and rheumatism,
no matter how chronic or how old the
cases are, that P. P. P. will not make
total cure of.
Mr.. Briggs winds up his testimony
by saying he thanks God and our med
icine, P. P. p, Lippman's Great Rem
edy, for the great cure.
Kidney troubles, II neglected, bring
about serious and painful and very
often fatal results. P. P. P. removes
the Irregularities, and cures the dis
eased parts.
Dyspepsia and indigestion. skin and

Making Parchment Paper,

The operation of manufacturing parch-
ment papers such as are used for wrap.
ping butter and other similar objects
is very interesting one. Parchment is
produced directly from the raw paper
web in practically one operation. The
sheet to be parchmentized is passed
through sulphuric acid and then through
rollers having Uniform action, which
discharge the surplus acid. the expressed
liquid being returned to the tank or
vessel. The paper is then carried and
passed through washing apparatus as
O tank. and also through sprays of
water, being led and guided by rolls
over which it passes, so that the free
acid is washed off or removed as far as
possible by mechanical washing. The
sheet next passes through bath of soda
solution or alkali and then through
nippers to express surplus alkali, which
is returned to the bath. Then the paper
is carried through an apparatus to be
further washed with water Next it is
passed through bath Of bleaching ma
terial, as "bleach" or the like, then
through further washing apparatus,
again passed between presses and
squeezed, and then finally it is passed
through bath Of glycerin, after the
passage. through which the paper is
wound upon roller or coiled up in q
completed state Of parchmentization. -
