A WOMAN’S INVENTION.
A woman should certainly know what utensils are needed In the kkeben and when one of that sex takes It into her bead to Invent a dishwashing machine It will be admitted that she must have *n Idea of what Is wanted in this line. The principal advantage of this ma3hine, which has Just been patented by Tennia Parrotte, of Marquette, Mich., teems to be that It drains the dishes immediately after they are washed and permits them to be lifted from the washer without wetting the hands. It will be noticed that there are two re-
ceptacles, the Inner one containing racks for the dishes and the outer one holding water for cleansing them. The diahholder is perforated to allow the free flow of the water and slides vertically in the slotted guides. In operation the dishholder Is lifted high enough to allow the ends of the horizontal bar to be inserted In notches to support it in its elevated position. After the water has been ppured in the dlßkea»are fitted in the racks, when the inner tub may be lowered into the water ami rapidly revolved by means of the crank and gearing. As soon as the dishes are cleaned the racks are again elevated and the dishes given a spin In this position to throw off the drops of water remaining on them, jtfter which the work of wiping them Is short and easily done.
