Divorce Ptomm In China.
A Chinese husband may divorce hia
wife for a number of causes—incompati¬
bility, theft, drunkenness, disobedience,
adultery or failure in duties toward hus¬
band or his parents. The process is very
simple. The husband calls together his
relatives and presents the case to them
in the presence of his wife. The com
pany vote on the question. If the ground
for divorce is sufficient in their eyes the
man and woman sign papers of separa¬
tion by dipping their fingers in ink and
making a mark at the foot of the agree¬
ment. If the divorced wife has parents
or near relatives she goes and lives with
them; if not, she is sold by the husband
to a sort of matrimonial agent, who
finds for her another husband or resells
her to the keepers of low houses. A sec¬
ond or third wifo is sometimes simply
turned into the street by her husband
without formal process of divorce.—New
Orlearrt Times-Democrat.
Dud Fractions ot Confectioners.
The British confectioners have invited
all “sugar workers, licorice refiners,

The immoral practices consist of putting

HOW BOTTLES ARE WASHED.
The Old Fashioned Methods No longer
Employed—New Froceese*.
It is said that physicians of Elizabeth,
N. J., have attributed the death of a
prominent Son of Temperance of that
city to lead poisoning, caused of by drink¬
ing temperance beverages out bottles
which rhii * have been cleansed by the use of
sliot. 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 |lass and subsequently to be taken up
by tide liquid when the bottles aro re¬
filled. There aro probakly 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 tho latest approved bottling
establishments. There is one in South
Fifth avenue where 5,000 bottles aro
cleaned every day, and thoroughly
cleaned without the use of shot.
Ordinary root beer and sarsaparilla
bottles are easily cleaned, because the
material used in them is readily and
quickly soluble in cold water. Tho bot¬
tles aro dumped, throat up, into a big tub
of clean cold water, widen is kept clean
by constant replenishment. Each bottle
Is quickly filled and allowed to soak a
short time. Then the cleaner grasps
tliree or four bottles in his two hands,
holding them throat*up, and shakes them
vigorously. That is sufficient to dislodge
the sugary coating, and then tho bottlc-s
are inverted and aHowed to drain off.
As they aro made of transparent green
glass, it is easy to see when they aro
clean. Caro is taken to wash out any
flies that have been sepulchered in the
bottles in their search for sweet things.
The old fashioned stone bottles that were
formerly used for root beer and have costly. long
been discarded, as too heavy
The cleaning of soda water bottles is
more carefully done. Here warm water
is used, and the workman manipulates a
four pronged tool that looks like a fork.
Each prong is mounted with a stiff blade
of India rubber, of such shape that when
the prong is thrust into the bottle the
rubber blade reaches tho inner side of the
bottle. In front of tho workman is a
cocoa mat. The bottles are filled, tho
prongs thrust inland then the four bot¬
tles at once are rolled across the mat.
This serves a doublo purpose. The mat
cleans the outside of the bottle, and the
rolling brings the whole inside of tho bot¬
tle in contact with the rubber blade. A
few vigorous rolls cleans the bottle thor¬
oughly, and then it is rinsed and ready
for use.
Still another process is used for lager
beer bottles, which require even more
vigorous washing. This is done by a
machine with revolving spindles, on
which are placed rubber brushes. Tho
bottle is thrust over dhe spindle, which is
run by steam, and running water carries
off the scum. Each bottle then gets a
thorough internal scouring.
It is, in fact, an essential element of
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, tho
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 revolving
bristlo brushes, but tho wear and tear of
bristles was found to be too expensive,
although the work done was very effec¬
tive. Tho substitution of rubber blades
for the bristles proves to be cheaper and
quite as thorough. of
A much better way than the use
shot for cleaning bottles is to put a small
piece of iron chain with small links into
tho bottles with some water. This, when
rattled about, will clean a bottle well. Of
course, if a bottle has been filled with any
greasy substance, the only way to clean
t thoroughly is with strong alkali, and
this is done by all careful bottlers.—New
York Sun.
