down to give place for a more modern
and pretentious dwelling house will bring
to many people recollections of days and
nights spent there In communion with
the inhabitants of another world, writes
n correspondent of the New York Sun
from Rutland, VT. The Huntoon home

It is not many years since the Eddy
family were the most noted and most un-
explainable spiritualistic mediums of the
country. Today their fame is dead, ex-
cept among the inner circles of steadfast
believers, and the memory of their deeds
extends no further than the circulation
of the book which records them and has
long been out of print.
This book Is. perhaps. the only exist
ing memorial of their deeds. 1t is, more
over, a remarkable tribute to their pow
ers. About twenty-five years ago Col. IL.
s. Olcott investigated the doings Of
this strange family, then at the
zenith of IT'S fame. Col. Olcott

THE TOWEL SUPPLY.
The Business Has Grown Into Wide
spread Usefulness

(From the New York SUM-
The clean towel supply business, which
originated in Chicago. was introduced in
New York in 1884. 1t has thrived here.
and there are now about twenty-five con-
Germs engaged in the business in this
city. with thousands of customers. whose
number is constantly increasing. There
are a great many towel users who never
dreamed of taking towels from towel
supply concerns when the business was
first started who now wouldn't think OF
getting them in any other way.
Cabinets are supplied with place to
keep the towels in, and they are also
provided with a comb and brush. whisk
broom, a soapdish. and soap The cabi-
nets are made in variety of styles and
sizes, each having mirror in the front.
Either hand or roller towels are pro-
vided. or both. The minimum supply fur
nished is four clean towels week, and
once week the used towels are taken
up and replaced with clean ones. the soap
renewed il it is out, and the other ar
tices of the equipment looked after.
Towels are supplied to banks stores,
offices, and pretty much all sorts of bust
ness places, in many of which a large
number are used, the supply being re-
newed as often as may be required. There
is one concern that supplies towels with
the customers initials on them, using a
double set for each customer. and supply
ing each with the same towels always.
There are now supplied backing out
fits, with polishing brush. dauber, and
backing, the backing supply being kept
constantly renewed, all for so much a
month. The towel supply business has
now spread all over the country, and it
lis established In all the large cities.
