MADE BY SELLING
T H o M A S A. z A S E US
PATENT FOR THE
Improvement of Soap.
A GREAT
LABOR, TIME, SOAP, MONEY AND
CLOTHES SAVER.

REASONS WHY itSHOULD BE ADOPTED.
l. Simplicity, cheapness and ease of prep
aration.
,. Economy, as much less soap is required
TO do the same amount of washing and cleans
ing, and yet do it more perfectly.
3. Your clothes will last much longer, and
il does away with all the hard rubbing on
the washboard.
4. Any kind OF water can be used hard
or soft, warm or cold.
No necessity for boiling clothes, thereby
avoiding the expense of fuel and the un-
pleasantneSs of heat in summer, and the un-
healthy necessity OF inhaling steam arising
from the washtub in winter
8 Yarns, fannels or silks can be washed
without fulling or hardening them goods
that Jade can be washed and their color re-
tanned.
{. Ii is admitted to be the best mode of
washing bed clothes ever discovered.
.. IL VIII remove grease spots from clothes
or fabrics Of snv kind with cold water, and
il is also of great value to grocerymen, as
grease can be removed from cans, buckets,
and all kinds of vessels by simply using cold
water
9. 1t is indispensable in all machine shops,
as all grease, paints, &c, can be easily washed
of with cold water, and it is of great value
to sill hotel aud restaurant keepers. &C., as
all tableware, cook-vessels, &c, can be per-
fectly cleansed with cold water, and for all
kinds of house cleaning it has no equal for
scrubbing and cleaning paints, &c, on wood
or metal.
Family and District Rights for Sale.
This is the best selling enterprise to be
found anywhere. The supply and demand
govern the value of patents and enterprises,
and in this case the supply is inexhaustable
and the demand universal. as soap is sn krti-
Gle that is Indispensable and Of every day use
BOONE, Iowa, August I, lsss.-It gives
me pleasure TO say on testing Thomas A. Ka-
sey's New Process for washing that il is q
perfect success in all respects, aud far superior
to any other have ever found for washing
all kinds of goods in hard aud cold water,

CURRENT MISCELLANY.

No artist ut any time has taken his
work more seriously. A bundle of let
tiers addressed by Collins to London
editor, which now lies before US,
abundantly illustrates this point. From
the careful corrections i'll his proof and
his alarm lest any alteration should be
made by another hand, we learn how
thoroughly considered was every line
of his stories and how significant every
syllable. The following passage (Which

who cater fer the family, is particular.

Spanish Courtesy.

Ion, we cannot stand OH ceremony.
The world goes too fast for that" The
excuse is the modern apology for that
lack of courteous kindness that every.
body feels and few people enjoy. Cour-
tesy, however, has not quite died out of
the earth. Mr.. H. G. Chatfield- Taylor,
in "The Land of the Castanet," says
that in Spain true courtesy yet survives.
1t must be so when Spaniartls will 90

ton to stranger, tramping from
church to church and from gallery to
gallery to show him the sights. taking
him shopping, calling ut his hotel
twice day to offer their services, and
doing thousand things that neither
an American nor III Englishman would
dream of doing.
a Spaniard will send the stranger
flowers, take him to drive each day of
his visit and bcstow countless little at
tentlons that show real interest in his
welfare and an earnest desire to please.
When he parts from his visitor, the
Spaniards will mako HIM feel that he
is losing n friend.
Tho little courtesies of everyday oc.
currence i'll Spain contrast forcibly with
the offhand manner of more western
peoples. No ono enters a Spanish rail

occupant on leaves it except with tho
same polite acknowledgement.
On taking seat ut hotel table it is
customary to salute each of tho guests,
and it is bad manners in Spain to go
into shop and ask for what You want

a Door Hinge Screen.

Some door hinges are things of
beauty, and others are embodiments of
uslincss, but it is not solely for the
purpose Of hiding the latter that these
screens were originated They arc sup
posed to be accompaniment to the door
chain, which is so often useful in sum
mer. when people wish to leave door
slightly ajar for the purpose of getting
fresh air. When door is slightly open,
there is often a space at the hinges wide
enough to reveal the room within, and
it is to cover this space that tho door
hinge screen is used. The Puritan in
this connection gives soma helpful hints
about making these screens: A very
pretty one was made of dresden ribbon
about eight inches wide. Tho top was
finished with huge bow, which, being
tackled at tho top of the door jamb. did
not interfere with the FREQ motion of
tho door. Another screen was made of
macreme cord, the openwork admitting
of ribbons being introduced as orna-
mentations, while still another was of
stamped leather

ANEW KIND OF MAYOR
JONES OF TOLEDO PRACTICES THE
GOLDEN RULE.

A Practical Philanthropist Who Proceeds
but Much Progress-His Administration
Successful and Popular.
Detroit may have its Pingreo, but Toledo
has its Jones. Mr.. Jones is mayor Of tho
Ohio city. He is reform mayor, n man
who believes in the injustice Of existing
social conditions and who takes as his
motto tho golden rule.
Mayor Jones Is u successful business
man, Christian socialist, n practical phi
lanthropist and an energetic advocate Of
reforms. Not being politician and hay
ing decided opinions of his own as to tho
way In which a municipality should ba
managed, 1t may bo imagined that he has
introduced some novel features into local
government. He has smashed any num-
Der OF time honored conventions, but ho
has done 1t all with so little fuss that To-
ledo has actually accepted a reform admin
istratiop without making any sensation
about tint all.
But MIR. Jones did not wait until he
was elected mayor to bloom out as n phi
lanthropist. Ho has boen practicing his
golden rulo for years. He hns eyon con-
Quoted q factory on those lines. His en-
ployees enjoy such advantages MS an eight
hour day, and onco year thoy share in u
division of percentage of the profits of
the concern. More than that they are
treated rs his equals, and no frequently
entertains his workmen and their families
ut his comfortable home.
These arc some of tho things which
mado 1t possible for Mr.. Jones to secure
the mayoralty nomination whom there was
deadlock between the machine candi-
dates. He made an educational campaign,
preaching tho brotherhood of man us ap-
piled to things municipal. He nstonished
tho politicians by telling his audiences
that city should DO governed just as if it
wero large family-not for tho benefit of
tho few, but in the interests of tho many.
But he did not deal wholly in gcneralities.
He was practical and specific. Ho advo-
Gated tho eight hour day with unflagging
earnestnoss. Ho urged the nbolshment of
the contract system and the. municipal
ownership of public franchises.

told them his viows frankly, and no was

How the Ostrich Runs.

A writer i'll The Zoologist, who has
been engaged for nine years in ostrich
farming i'll South Africa, Mr.. Con
wright Schreiner, corrects prevalent
misconception concerning the manner
Ill which these great birds run. 1t is
generally stated that when running the
ostrich spreads out it's wings, and thus
skins lightly along tho ground, but,
according to Mr.. Schreiner, this is not
correct "When bird really settles it.
self to run, )" he says, it holds its head
lower than usual and little forward,
with deep loop in tho neck. The neck
vibrates sinuously. but the head re-
mains steady, thus enabling the bird,
even at top speed, to look aronnd with
mistaken glance in any direction. The
wings lie along tho sides about on n
level with or littlo higher than the
back and arc held loosely just free of
the plunging thigh. There is no at
tempt to hold them extended or to de-
rive any assistance from them as organs
of flight"
