A Natural Washlng-TubThe water of Mono Lake, in Nevada is full of soda, borax, and other minerals in solution. The dirtiest and greasiest of linen is made clean in half a minute by rinsing the article in the lake. The water lathers naturally when agitated, and during a high wind a wall of suds, three or four feet high, is seen on the shore where the waves beat. This quivering wall, in which are seen all the colors of the rainbow, would grow to a height of ten or twelve feet before toppling over but that when it attains a certain height the wind catches it up and wafts great balls of it far inland. Some of these float ing balloons of lather are as big as a flour barrel.
