New Jones furnace.

The new jones furnace, for the
electric smelling of ores, recently
erected at Iron Mountain, Mich, is
pictured in the last issue of the
Press of that city. The electric
current was turned on for the first
time on Wednesday of last week,
although it is expected to take
several days to get everything rum

first tests with the new plant will
be conducted secretly and on a
limited scale, but as soon as every.
thing is adjusted visitors will likely
be welcomed.

Every woman inherits certain ways of
doing housework from her mother, as
the mother did from her grandmother.
One of these ideas from ancient times
concerns the washing of clothes. Boil
EN-, boil EN- good" is the old tradition.
Until the invention of Fels-Naptha soap
that was the onl y way to wash Now,
isn't it fool sh to keep on boiling clothes,
and rubbing them hard, when way to
wash better in cool or lukewarm water
with no hard rubbing has been found?
Clothes last longer with no boiling to
weaken their fiber Every progressive
woman is glad to get rid of the hot fire,
steam and suds, as we'll as the back-break-
