Laundry Stamped fer Identifying

In foreign countries some strange
methods are adopted for identifying
the contents Of the washtub. In some
parts OF France linen is defaced with
the whole name and address OF the
laundry stamped upon it, and an ad.
ditional geometrical design to indicate
the owner of the property. In Bavaria
every patron of the washtub has q
number stamped in large characters
on his linen. In Bulgaria every laun.
dry has a large number Of stamps en-.
graved with designs. and in Russia
the laundries mark linen with threads
worked in arrow shapes. In some
Russian towns the police periodically
issue regulation for iaundries.

Eaotistic Poet

There is story told of a French
poet who inquired of friend and
fiatterer what he thought OF his last
work. Il have arrived at the fifteenth
canto," he replied with enthusiasm,
and think there is no more beauti-
ful and harmonious in the language. "
Pardon me, there is one thing" said
the poet. "Ah, perhaps you mean
Chateaubriand's 'Atala?" Certainly
not. I mean my sixteenth canto."

the attainment Of it by overlooking the

our thousands of Industrial readers
than by telling them of the POSSIBLE
ties within their reach of establish
ing homes possessing all reasonable
comforts, at cost continued for a.
few years which is no more, and
perhaps less, than they are now pay
ing annually to some unrelentless
landlord and acquiring no title. To
that end we shall point out each
week, without fear or favor the re-
lative and actual merits of each Of
Duluth's suburban districts. This
week we shall begin with.
Duluth Heights.
No suburb of Duluth is nearer to
the business center or more advan-
tageously located than Duluth
Heights, yet we are persuaded the
fact is but little known to the great
majority of works., because the
suburb has never been ''boomed' or
even very much advertised.
Ideal House Sites.
There are most cogent reasons why
this would be an ideal home for
wage earners and workers of every
craft, as we'll as for business and pro-
fessional men whose annual incomes
are dependant upon their individual
industry -
TIE transportation facilities to and
from this suburb are not excelled by
those of any section of the city. The
incline railway, so apprehensive to
some, is constructed and operated in
conformity with the most perfect
mechanical ideas known, and there is
not more possibility of dangers or
accidents thereon than there is on
Superior street. Indeed there is less
so the incline has not had an ac-
cident of any kind in twenty years.
nor was any passenger ever injured
thereon. From seat in the incline
care the passenger has commanding
view of Duluth, Superior, Duluth
harbor and the lake.
Proximity to City.
The trip from Superior street to
this suburb takes just twenty min
utes, and the residents can go to
any part of Duluth wheresoever their
employment may calf them, without
being compelled to get too early a
breakfast or wait for too late a sup
per.
The climate of course does not ma
terially differ from that of Duluth
proper. There Is however this diff
ference; the height of land interven-
ing between it and Lake Superior
protects it from (winter billiards.,
autumnal storms and chilling winds
that frequently obstruct street car
traffic on other lines but never on
the Duluth Heights line. 4Ssz% (
Character of SOIL.

possibilities the suburb measures up
to Woodland or Lakeside The soil
is rich dark loan mixed with suf-
ficient clay and sand to render. 1t

It is altogether probable that the
reason, why so many of our wage
earners do not avail themselves Of
the opportunities and advantages Of
fered by the rich tracts of land sur
rounding Duluth is, that the struggle
for existence is so keen, under our
present industrial conditions, they
