There isn’t much time lost In a laundry in any department. Thirty-five people, io eluding drivers aud receiver and deliverers of goods, will handle 2.UUU shlrte, 2UU dosens of cuffs and collars aud fiO.lXM) pieces of or dinary clothing in a week, and while doing tin» they will take in a shirt, wash and iron it, an«! wrap it up for delivery in two hours and a quurter The first operation is in the wash rootiL Here are seen rows of washing machines, circular, with an inner perforated rev Iving ami reversing ohamlter for the clothe». The clothes are thrown Into thia 125 shirts at a time, or the equal of that la other piece*, and clear filtered water run in on them and the chamber started Making a dozen revolutions in one direction, it auto matically reverses an<1 makes the same num t>er m the other, the clothes falling back on the ribbed side* Bar soao is something that is almost unknown in a steam laundry The *>ap used is received iu large barrels of cleat white shavings, and Iscalled “chipped laundry ” One of these tiarrels ma kt« eight of suds, being thrown into a large vat and there boiled with water until it ho» t>een fully dissolved am! reduced to about the con sisteucy of buttermilk. This is always kept iu sus'k cool, and poured into the washers while the inner chainoui is still revolving, the motion being tn*tween the perforated shell of tins chamber and the water tight covering The clothe« are washed, rinned ami blued in this tub by the aid of valves, the first siuia being warm, the second boiling, and the rinsing cold The clothes are riui»ed : and then blued, the full ofieration requiring but an hour and tweuty minutes. From the washer the clothes go to the wringer, though this machine gets its nam« «imply because it performs th« same service as the household wringer It looks more like a boiling kettle, though investigation shows it to be double, the inner one lining perfor ated and revolving 3UU times a minute The clothe« are thrown iu this, the power put on, and being thrown against the perforated ' i sides, are dried in a few minute«. The kettle takes in 100 large, heavy linen sheets at a I j time, drying them in thirty minutes. From I this the clothes go up stairs to the drying i and starching room Cuffs, collars and shirts and such articles as must be starched are I thrown into a revolving and reversing ma- | chine similar to the washer, and are then pasxed through an oniinary wringer, if tMM*eM8tiry, or hung up to dry The dry room is surrounded by steam pipes, the “horse" on which the clothes are hung being pulled out I • mi rollers while the dothee are being bung, ! I and then pushed btv*k. It matters not whether the sun is shining ami the wiud blowiug, or the rain coming down a bucketful at a drop. In twenty or thirty minute* the clothes come out dry The unstarched goods go to the inangler, and the starched ones to the up)»er Cory to be ironed. There are not many cheats about a steam laundry, but there is one in mangling which uas never been detected The mangier is a series of blanketed rolls, with a large cen tra’ steel cylinder, kept very hot. The clothes ere |»a»«Hd through this twice, coming out with every appetiran<*e of having been ironed. Two out of three ladies sending family washing to the laundry accompany it with a note dire«‘ting the laundry man to | «tarch their tablecloths or spreads Does he do it? Not often, instead, be takes the clothes as they come from the wringer, HtraigliteiiH them out and runs them through I the mangier «¡amp, giving them frequently an ' extra turn through the ma«*hliie They come I out stiff and glossy, but without starch, and the bouaewife uever knows the difference. The mangier is one of the greatest pieces of machinery used in a laundry On large clot ties or »beet*, two girls operate it, one on either side, and in the course of an ordinary day they will run through or iron IO,(XX) to l2,(X<0 pieces On towels and napkins four girls can work at a machine very comfort ably The mangier has a pressure of 200 pounds to the inch, and if the girls ever get • a finger in ahead of the cloth it is gone mire ! Starched articles of clothing go to another j de|mrtmrnt aftet leaviug the drying room. Cuffs and collars are ironed In a machine ! somewhat similar to the mangier, first, how ever ¡»asaing through a dampener, two rub ber rolls running over* steel roll, the bottom ' of which is in water The lineu is then passed and reimmied tietween the Ironuig | rolls, the pressure producing tlie glosa It then pn*>e» through a shaping machine, a very simple contrivance, sirQjlar to that used . in other branch«« of tra«le for the same pur I pose Turned down collars, however, are I submitted to a different process.
