Cleans Ship at Sea.

For cleaning ships an Ingenious and simple device was recently invented, Its object being to clean quickly and thoroughly the bottom or sides of a vessel. It consists of two separated brushes, which are supported by arms, and of a hollow body portion, which Is connected with the arms. It has n hose coupling and a jet nozzle, which is so fixed that It Is opposite to the front or cleaning face of the brushes. It is this nozzle which spurs the brushes on to work and enables them to move rapidly over the bottom, and. If desired, the sides <>t a ship. * This device can be operated by any one, and those who have seen it tested any that It does its work remarkably well. An unmarried man’s opinion of pretty clothes for women Is better than a married man’s, because he is not biased by .bills. When a woman with "proper pride" takes In roomers, she says it isn't for the money, but for the company.
