WASHERWOMEN MUST HAVE
THEIR PREMISES INSPECTED
Atlanta Takes this Step to Protect the
Public Health.

Atlanta, Ca, May 20.-There is
hardly anya danger of Atlanta's city
council spending money to establish
public washing place, and forcing
all the washerwomen of the city tc
use it-they do this in Honolulu
but there is one thing the city faith
ers do mean to do, and that is COM
pei the washerwomen to pass a rigid
inspection of tbeir premises and per-
son once a week, and take out reg
ular license for the protection of their
patrons.
AS a result of the good work OF
Secretary Walter G. Cooper, of the
Chamber of Commerce, the city faith
ers have become convinced that wash
erwomen spread disease, and at the
next regular meeting of council an
ordinance will doubtless be enacted
which provides for the enforcement OF
strinent sagnitary regulations aolng
this line
First of all the washerwomen will
be required to register. Then COM
petent inspectors will examine their
houses, their yards, utensils, water
facilities, etc. All who come up to
the standard will be given licenses
Those who fail will be forced out OF
business until they ''clean up"
The merit of such system is at
once apparent 1t is now in vogue
in most up-to-date cities, and there is
no question but that it will be a pow
erful factor for the general health
conditions of the community.

THE BRIDGE CRAZE
NOW ON THE NANE.
London Society Plans Re-
tnrn to Billiards.
I1n, May 2O-The rumor That

- don, May 20-The rumor that lie
o99sarry of bridge is on the wane
in London society comes as the best
news to the ladies maids n. England
Since the game became the rage they
have lost one Of their most valued
Darm.si,es, their mistress cast-off
GOWNS A woman who has lost money
at bridge soon has to search for the
means TO pay her debts, and one of thu
first resources is to sell her discard
ed dresses, instead of handing them
over 90 her maid
% has been ascertained that during
the last eight years, s,nce the bridge
fever has been at it height. model
gown Establishments where second
hand dresses are bought from fashion,
abb. women and sold to actresses or
middle class women Llaye-trebled in
number.
OF course, there are many who d.
clare rha- the rumor that bridge is %
be given up has no foundation. Bridge
clubs seem to be in a furnishing CON
diuo1 and stakes get higher and high
er but the smart set is undoubtedly
sek.ug a new diversion.
Several hostesses have told their
friends that at their weekend parties
no bridge is to be played, and that
they intend to make billiards the sue
cessor to bridge. They say they are
tired Of having half their guests on
bad terms with the other half on ac-
count Of sQuabbles over cards. and
are even more tired of the difficulties
OF getting up dances or theatricals
except among the very youngest set.
Drcssmakers, seeing which way the
wind is blowing, are already advertig,
ing billiard wraps, dainty silk affa rs
to throw over the shoulders during
tle game. Last season they were an.
n0unclug the fastest thing in bridge
blouses. 4
Another sign of the times is that at
the London women's clubs the billiard
instructors are now busy. Women
who have not played for years are
practicing, and those who had never
learned to handle a cue are work ng
hard TO master the game.
