PLEA FOR CLEAN LINEN.
Requests for Additions to the Ameni-
ties of Life.

A suggestion for the enactment of a
regulation in regard to the method of
sprinkling clothes in Chinese laun-
dries similar to that recently put In
force in San Francisco, was made to
the Board of Health yesterday, by Eli
zabeth V. c. Hall and Martha i.
Chamberlain, a committee of the Wom-
ans Board of Missions.
In their communication to the
Board these women say of the method
they object to, that it has been pro-
nounced unsanitary by more than
one physician. ut is certainly repuI-
sive, and the very unpleasant odor no
ticeable in newly Numbered clothes
gives one the feeling that notwith-
standing the fact that they have been
put through a cleansing process, they
do not impress one with the sense of
cleanliness"
Another suggestion these women
make is requirement that the street
cars should be kept cleaner than they
are. Still another is the dense growth
of trees and shrubs throughout the
city, excluding air and sunlight, re-
tanning dampness and promoting mus
ty odors and in the opinion of some
giving rise to malarial conditions.
The Board referred the communica-
ton to the Committee on Sanitation
to consider how far the matters spo-
ken of came within the purview of the
Board, and the most practical way of
dealing with them.
