these wheels are two cams inclined ot
an angle. and between these cams are
twentv-four picker bars. which the
revolution of the two wheels causes
to move from the outer edge of the
rim of the wheel to the face or web
of the wheel, about ten inches. At
tached to these picker bars are n
series of flexible. spiral pickcrs. com

with hair cloth interDosed between,

forming the picking points. These
spiral pickers are projected through
of holes radially placed in the
sides of the wheels. the space between
the two wheels being about twenty
inches. The machine is driven strad-
ling the rows of cotton plants. The
spiral Dickers are pressed into tho
as they pass between the
wheels, and the pickers rotating en-
angle the open, fbrous cotton. and
winding 1T IN on the pickers, it is
pulled out of the boil, and as the
continues to turn, it is brought
o the TOP of the wheels. whore tho

A wooden tub should be used for
washing cut glass, and the water in
which it is cleaned should not be toe
warm for the hands. A sudden change
OF temperature is bad for glassware
and it should never be left upon mar
bic or stone. The deeper the cutting
the more liable it is to be broken.
Decanters and water bottles which
have become discolored may be
cleansed with a soft cloth guided by q
wire. Discoloring may be removed
by placing shot with bits of paper and
strong soap suds in the vessel and
shaking them we'll together. Beans arc
sometimes used instead of shot. A
tablespoonful Of muriatic acid to a
pint of water will remove obstinate
stains. For cleansing the outside,
cloths and towels and brush arc
necessary. The washing and rinsing
waters should not vary much in tenn
peratllre. "A soft towel should be placed
under the dishes when draining. To
secure a high polish vigorously rub
glassware when it is warm, with per-

ornamented with gold should be

and should be wiped dry as soon as it
