MUNICIPAL LkUNDRlES.
Need Felt For Their Establishment
In Large Cities.

Need Felt For Their Establishment
In Large Cities.
The establishment of municipal laun-
dries is question that may soon be
brought before the charitable depart
nents Of the municipal governments of
our large cities. There is at present in
this country one municipal public laun-
dry. and that is in st. Paul. and for the
Use Of men only. Such laundries have
leen in operation In all of the largest
cities and towns of England for sever.
Gl years.
The idea is said to have originated
with woman. Catherine Wilkinson,
the wife of laborer, living in a crowd
ed part of Liverpool. During cholera
epidemic she allowed her neighbors,
who lad no means Of heating large
quantities Of water, to wash their
rlothes on her premises. The women
Of the district proyident. realizing the
great benefit Of this privilege to the
poor, hired additional rooms, email bling
Mrs. Wilkinson to provide for 50 fam
lies a week.
Sceing the eagerneSs OF the poor to
avail themselves Of these mcager ac-
cOmmodation;, the corporation of Liv.
crpOOl determined to erect, at the pub
lie expense, washhouses, in connection
with the baths. for the people This
venture, op,nrd in 1870. was the first
establishment in England.
There seems to be no question that
the great municipal washhouses Of
London have proved blessings to the
grimy east end of the biggest city in
the world

Widest Bridge on Earth,

Lansing, Mich. claims possession Of
the widest driveway bridge in the
United States If not in the world. The
bridge crosses Grand river on Michi-
gan avenue, two squares from the front
entrance to the statchousc. 1t is of
the truss pattern and is 115 feet wide
in the clear, the full width of the av-
enue. On either side Is II walk IL feet
wide, leaving Il roadway So feet in
width.
This bridge, which was constructed
nve years ago, Strengthened out the av-
enue ut this point, greatly improving
the view from the statchousc. The
hand rails on either side are flush with
the store fronts, so that there is not the
slightest jog in the street. The bridge
cost S1U.OeU.

sort Of glory seemed to frame her face
and make II at that moment more ex-
quisitely beautiful than that of any
woman he had ever seen. After a
pause of some seconds Mason put out
his right hand and gently raised hers
to his lips. Kind, tender as the action
was. perhaps the quick intelligence Of
the love stricken girl detected in the
touch something which told her of the
difference between his feelings toward
her and hers toward him. However
that may be, after Il lapse Of another

GwYx HEARS ! PROPOSAL.


When MaSsou awoke next morning,
he found himself alone In the loft,
Coch Tai having long since descended
to his days work.
The sunlight was already strong. and
Mason SAW. with mixed feeling Of
relief and dread. that there were signs
of thaw on the sparkling surface Of
the SHOW.
Ii the thaw continued. the way back
to Trccoeh and thence to civilization
would soon he open. But the thought
Of the changed course of life which
this might inaugurate WAS not one Of
unmiNed joy 10 the doctor.
For with his admiration and liking
for Gwyn Trcgaron there mingled no
feeling strong enough to he called love.
Ii was gratitude alone which prompted
him to the resolution he had come to OF
asking her to he his wife.
So. having made up his mind. he
| sought and found an opportunity OF
speaking To the girl. When they met
at breakfast, he saw, now that COch

monkeys make clever comedians. but 1t

All beavers take contracts for building

BOB PIPKIN TEACHES GEO
GRAPHY.

Bob Pipkin is a successful
teacher Of geography. There is
no doubt about that. The fact is.
Bob is a public benefactor.
Through his efforts thousands of
dollars have found their way in
to the pockets of the farmers
thence into the pockets sof the
merchants, which without him
would have never seen the light
of day in North Carolina. The
men who raise vegetables and
fruit know this is true.
But Bob's favorite work and
pleasure is teaching geography by
object lessons.
His method is to run excursions
Ito places of historic interest, ano
to put the rates so low that tn,
great masses of the people can 60
Just think of a trip to Norfolk
Virginia, to Chesapeake Bay, Ole
Point, up the Potomac river, ant
the Capital of the nation for fy'
dollars and fifty cents. What
grand trip that is!
The best way to learn geogra
ply is by travelling. Or the lit
of September Mr.. Pipkin will rul
another excursion to Norfolk
Washington and Baltimore.
