J., Imre attributed the deatli of a prominent Son of Temperance of that city to lead poisoning, caused by drink¬ ing temperance beverage* out of bottles which hare been cleansed by the use of •hot. The theory is that the rattling of shot in the bottles has caused the lead from which the shot is made to adhere to the glass and subsequently the bottles to betaken up by the liquid when are re¬ filled. There are probably a few old fashioned bottlers who clean not only temperance drink bottles, but also wine bottles, with shot; but that is not the practice in the latest approved bottling establishments. ..... “ There -e Is one in South Fifth avenue where 5,000 bottles thoroughly Me cleaned every day, and * - rids cleaned without the ubo of shot. Ordinary root beer and sarsaparilla the bottles are c::«ily cleaned, because and material used 11 them is readily bot¬ quickly soluble i i cold water.

Then the cleaner grasp* three or four ..........nds, bottles ia his two banc— holding them throat up, and shakes them vigorously. That is sufficient to dislodge the sugary coating, and than the bottles are inverted and allowed to drain off. As they are made of transparent green glass, it is easy to see when they are clean. Care is taken to wash out any glee that have bec-i r * pulcherod in the bottlesin their i for sweet things. The old fashioned seooe bottles that were formerly used for root beer have long been discarded, as too heavy and costly. The cleaning of soda water bottles is more carefully done. Here warm water Is used, and the workman looks manipulates Ike fork. a four pronged tool that a Each prong is mounted with a stiff blade of India rubber, of such shape that when the prong ia thrust tnto the bottle the rubber made r<-ru-!ies the inner side of the bottle. In fi, >t of the workman is a cocoa mat. 'i .e bottles are filled, the prongs thrust in, and then the four bot¬ tles at onee are rolled across the mat This serves a double purpose. The mat cleans the outside of the bottle, and the rolling brings the whole inside of the bot- tle in.contact with the rubber blade. A few V vigorous V 1^01 OUO rolls SVUO cleans UU-W‘*0 the M*V bottle WWWV thor- qughly, and then it is rinsed and ready for use. Still another process is used for lager beer bottles, which require even done more vigorous washing. This is by a machine with revolving spindles, on which are placed rubber brushes. The bottle is thrust over the spindle, which is run by steam, and running water carries off the scum. Each bottle then gets a thorough internal scouring. essential element of It is, in fact, an success in the bottling business to keep the bottles clean, and no manufacturer who expects to keep his custom would dare neglect the essential element of cleanliness. The element of cost prevents, if no other considerations could do so, the slow and tedious method of cleaning bot¬ tles with shot. There was a bottle wash¬ ing machine in use here not long ago which cleansed bottles with bristle brushes, but the wear and tear bristles was found to be too expensive, although the work done was very effec¬ tive. The substitution of rubber for the bristles proves to be cheaper quito as thorough. the A much better way than use shot for cleaning bottles is to put a small piece of iron chain with small links the bottles with some water. This, rattled about, will clean a bottle well. course, if a bottle has been filled with greasy substance, the only way to it thoroughly is with strong alkali, this is done by all careful York Sun.
