Even sanitation has gained somewhat. Scrupuious ‘clvennllneu, it is wellâ€"known, is a Japanese virtue, and one which has arrived at a de» gree of excellence in practice . unknown among ourselves. How many of our artisans are in the habit of daily changing their working clother ? how many bathe daily the whole body ? The answer may best be left in discreet obscurity, _ Yet these are among the common and habitual privileges of every workman in the dominions of the Mikado. Many, indeed, bathe twice a day. In order to allow of this salutary practice almost _ every _ street ssesses . its public _ bath house. 'Fi?e bath, . @ warm one, measures about 5 feet by 8 feet, and is 3 feet deep. _ It is fed by a constant current of hot aud one of cold water, and is continually replenished by fresh addiâ€" tions, The bather plunges into it, remains immersed ten minutes or so, rubs himself with a towel, then has a general douche of warm water, which is fresh in each case, repeats the process, is finally drmied, and goes home. . The cost of thus cleansing the body is ver{ #mall. That it is not altogether free from objection, most of us who are acâ€" customed to use an entirely fresh supply of water on each occasion will admit, Still, the Japanese, with his douche basin, may well arrive at an excellant result in #pite of his immerson in water, which, though clear, is not, of course, miorueopicllly pure. The same idea with an improvement in this respect, should be applied to the case of our own comparatively unwashed working classes. One or two ablutions a week would be rank unclearliness compared with the daily plunge and douche of laboring Japan The provision of cheap public bath houses. with a sufficent ln:;ry of clean water is a dream of the sanitarian as yet unrealized in London, aithough the civic authorities in many ofGreat Britan‘slarge towns, notably Glasgow, have already devoted much t tention to this subject, A Lesson in Cleanliness Unfamiliar With Society LingOâ€" r%"" Highstyleâ€"** What do you Want, MPâ€"â€"**Pleas , if you would :':.2" 0‘ your :;vv'u'::: wive me a cold A complete stock of Whips.
