I don't see why it isD't just as well to hang out the faraily xrash on Wednesday as upon Honday. Yet I have known women who wouldn'í have a flat unless they oould wash on Monday. As five floors of two families eaoh can't dry in the back yard and on the roof on the same day, and the Monday prejudice is very strong, landlords have had to erect huge telegraph poles in the rear üf flat hoases, from whioh pole lines are operated on a level of each floor. This system also affords the additional pleasure of a near view of the uumber and character of your neighbors' family wash. There must be some substantial reason for a woman doing just as her neighbors do and wbat all women in the civilized world do and have been doing for hundreds of years. - New York Herald.
