some scottish customs.

At Edinburgh the poorer class still do
their weekly laundering as 1t was done
years ago They convey their washing
to the river, dump it into large tubs, and
fill their tubs with water that hasbeen
heated In huge public kettles. Then the
women pull off their shoes and stockings,
and, holding their skirts we'll up about
their waists, get into the tubs and tread
on the steaming linen, thereby squeezing
oil the dirt out of the several pieces.
This is so common spectacle that the
natives pay no regard to it at all, but
visitors seem to consider it as one of the
sights of Edinburg, and but for the ac-
tivity Of the police the riverside would
be thronged with impertinent strangers
every wash-day. In the rural parts Of
Scotland the young women go bare
footed the most Of the year. On Sum
days these buxom damsels may be seen
proceeding to church with their shoes in
hand and their stockings hung properly
over their arms When they reach the
churchyard they sit down on the grass
and with more ease than modesty pro-
coed to don their hosen and shoon, for
It would be regarded quite improper to
enter the kirk without these articles OF
attire properly disposed.
