ONE OF TWO WAYS.

pose, namely, receptacle for the
urine, and as such It'll not liable to

second way is from careless local treat
ment Of other diseases.
CHIEF CAUSE.
Unhealthy urine from unhealthy
kidneys is the chief cause of bladder
troubles. SO the womb, like the blad-
der, was created for one purpose, and
ifnot doctored too much is not liable
to weakness or disease, except in rare
cases. 1t is situated back of and very
close to the bladder, therefore ANY

avoided. 70 find ont correctly, SCI

The legislature has done very
little up to date. The election for
judges will probably be held this
week, the house having passed a
bill to that effect. The greatest
contest will be in the first district,
considerable opposition having
cropped out against Judge Benet.
The only other contest is from
Judge Witherspoon's circuit, the
candidates being Representative
Gage and ex-Solicitor Mcdonald.

On Tuesday morning Pastor

the home of Mrs. Padgett, when
there the pastors official services
were desired in a certain inter-

On the way, we passed the

a large, durable, white dwelling of

The marriage brought into the
connubial relation Miss Hattie
Lark Padgett and Mr.. J. Ransom
Zimmerman. A number ot
relatives and friends lent THEN
presence to the happy occasion,
among them Mrs. Emmie Padgett
sister of Prof. R. E. Gaines
Richmond College. The bride
received many lovely presents
and the company enjoyed al
elegant wedding dinner. The
groom is a nephew and the bride
niece of DR.. w. II Zimmerman

will reside in Columbia, where the
husband has a position in tbs
Governors office. We wish then
all happiness.

At rare intervals along the mountain
roads of West Virginia and Kentucky
the traveller may come upon black
smith shop, but he is much safer III the
shooting of his horse if he will carry q
few nails and tools in the bottom of his
buggy. On trip by Pound Gap Oh one
occasion l found a blacksmith shop at
the forks of the road and, as usual, a
half dozen or more men sitting around
it in the shade. My turnout needed
some repairs, and as the smith was pot
tering about it inside ! made talk with
the men outside. One of them wanted
to sell me mule which he had hung
up on the fence, and started in for
dicker After we had been talking for
perhaps a quarter of an hour the smith
asked me to step inside and show him
something about the work he was do
ing AS soon as he got me away from
the crowd he came close and grew con-
fidential

"That's his weakness, mister" re-
Ponded the smith, letting his voice
fall to whisper. "You won't believe

Paving tho Cook.

In old times to dine with a nobleman
cost more in tips to the servants than a
club dinner. James Payn relates that
Lord Poor, a we'll named Irish peer, ex-
cused himself from dining with the
Duke Of Ormond upon the ground that
he could not afford it. IF you will
give me the guinea / have to pay your
cook (fancyD, will come as often as
you choose to ask me-" which was ao-
cordingly done The duke, however, had
not the pluck to stop the practice. Lord
Taafe, a general officer in the Austrian
service, did what he could He always
attended his guests to the door. When
they put their hands into their pockets,
he said: "No.. If you do give it, give 1t
to me. for it was who paid for your
dinner 4" To Sir Timothy Waldo must
be given the credit of putting an end to
the monstrous practice. After dinner
with the Duke of Newcastle he put a
crown into the cooks hand. 1t was re-
jected. II do not take silver, SIT. "
Every good. and / do not give gold"
This courageous rejoinder caught on, .
and the day of walls to cooks was over.

THE MODERN MANGLE.
Ironing Machines With Daily Capacity
of Many Thousands of Pieces.

Ironing Machines With Daily Capacity
of Many Thousands of Pieces.
Mangles in one form and another have
been used for hundreds of years, but the
steam mangle of the present day is es-
sentially modern machine. Steam man
giles are made of various sizes, with rolls
ranging in length from 48 inches to 1870
inches. One of the rolls is Of hollow
steel and heated with steam. The auxil-
larry rolls are of iron, covered with cot
ton cloth and blankets or felting. Steam
mangles are made also with two hot
rolls In ironing such things as sheets
and tablecloths by hand, it is customary
to iron one side only. Steam mangles
with single hot roll iron in that man
ner. With two hot rolls the steam man.
gle irons with smooth finish on both
sides.
Mangles are used only for fat articles;
for things without buttons or buckles;
for sheets and pillow cases, tablecloths
and napkins, towels and hardkerchiefs,
and so on Mangles of the largest size
will iron of hotels washing, taken
just as it comes, IA, 600 pieces in day;
of small pieces, such as napkins, they
will iron four times as many pieces in a
day.
From the washing machine the things
go to an extractor to be dried. The ex-
tractor revolves at high speed, and the
moisture is whirled out by centrifugal
action. From the extractor, just damp
enough to work we'll, the things go to
the mangle Such things as sheets are
fed into the great ironing machine by
two men, each holding a corner. There
is fixed table, as long as the rolls, at
tached to the machine on the other side.
Two men receive the sheet there and
fold it. In ironing small pieces like
napkins and towels on such machine
they would be fed in by a row of girls
standing ON one side and be received by
another row Of girls on the other side.
On the largest machines there would
be six or eight girls on each side. Amer.
lean steam mangles are used not only in
this country, but they are sold in all the
countries of Europe as well.
A great many mangles are made with
wood rolls of polished maple. Such
mangles are sometimes operated by
power, but commonly by hand. They
are used in hotels and laundries and res.
taurants and for household work. Man
giles with wood rolls are exported to the
various countries of Spanish America
and to South Africa and Australia
New York Sun.
