X Massachusetts, man has met this tend
ency with Il washtub cover that rolls up,
like the curtain of buggy top. The
cover is made of some strong but feX-
ible material and has ribs running length
wise in it. These ribs are long enough
to rest on the sides of the tub and af-
ford a surface sufficiently solid to hold
articles of ordinary weight. as well as a
board lid. To open the tub this cover is
rolled back against the wall and but
toned into place. The washerwoman may
then set to work without fear of the lid
falling on her.

accommodate an effervescent capsule
which is inserted therein after two or
three pin pricks have been made in its
paper covering. After the capsule has
been secured in place the diver is thrown
into deep vessel Of water preferably OF
glass, so that it's movements may be
more satisfactorily observed. AS the
water reaches the chemicals a gas is gen.
Grated which raises the form to the sur
face and then, being released. the doll
makes a dive to the bottom, where it re-
mains a few seconds until sufficient gas
is liberated to bring it again to the sur
face These maneuvers are maintained
for an hour until the capsule has been
exhausted.

PEARL DIVER.
An Ingenious Toy Which Excites

The Japanese people have asqiired the
appellation of 'the Yankees Of the east"
because of their great aptitude at imita-
ton and invention. A sheer cleverness
is manifested in their manufacture of
toys and novelties. as well as machinery
and things of more substantial charac-
ter. and among the former the pearl
diver" which has been recently sent to
this country, is a notable example. 1t

Madrid, Aug. 27.-The whole Iber-
Ian peninsula today is over a dynamite
mine whose fuse is timed to go off
tomorrow. In Spain the Catholics and
Carlists are determined to carry out
their demonstrations: In Portugal the
Catholics are ready for fight at the
general election and the government
has troops at every strategic point
while warships guns are trained on
every large port. Disorder in both
countries is thought to be inevitable.
The situation in Portugal is espec-
tally critical. The throne of young
King Manuel is threatened. There is
grave fear of an army mutiny. This
explains the fact that the war vessels
have been called into action. 1t is
upon them that the royal reliance Is
placed.
A Strict Censorship.
Although a strict censorship is
maintained In Portugal. private ad-
vices from Lisbon indicate that the
Catholics are determined to rebuke
the government for its attitude toward
the vatican. Catholics are said to be
arming. in spite of strong military pre-
cautions which have been taken. The
entire fighting strength of the army
and navy is held In readiness for &C.
