LAUNDRY BUSINESS IN RUSSIA
Americans Used to Their Up
to-Date establishments.

The laundry business in Russia is
still in its infancy, says the Ameri-
can consul at Moscow.
There are no steam laundries In
the cities for the general trade, the
work being done either at the homes
or at private hand laundries. Fami-
lies who can afford it usually keep
one or more servants whose time is
occupied with the washing and IRON
ing.
In the homes of the well-to-do
washing machines and wringers are
to be found, but in the majority OF
homes the family washing is done in
a wooden or metal trough and rinsed
in stream of water. Washboards
are just coming into use.
In the private hand laundries in
furious chemicals are use to "break"
the water, and fragile clothing lasts
but few washings.
The proprietors have no thought
of time, and usually an ordinary
weeks wash is not delivered under
fortnight. The delivery is made in
baskets carried by boys or girls on
foot, delivery wagons being unknown.

WHEN CHECK CAME IN HANDY
Story So Good That Actor, Now Fa.
moua Is Willing to Have 1t
Told on Him.

E. Fl. Sothern, at twenty-six, mar
rowly escaped being a poet. In his
younger days Sothern, who had nat
urally drifted to the stage, which his
father before him had so highly
adorned, often wrote verse, not for
amusement, but for the few dollars
that his efforts might bring in. And
the money so earned usually came
in handy.
The actor says that at one time,
during the first period of his stage
career, he had been playing small
part with company that had done
none too well. 1t was barn-storm-
ing organization, purely, and the
manager finally gave up the ghost
at far inland point. 1t was ghost
that had not walked for long time,
anyway, so no one lamented its de-
parture.
After more or less of struggle
the players got back to New York.
They had not eaten regularly, and
most of them were in dire need.
Sothern, upon his arrival at the
metropolis, Immediately made his
way to his old boarding house, which
! boasted a most reasonable landlady,
and there he laid down his bag.

tor, 'but I will have"

Sothern tore open the letter, and,

he had sent to slow-paying maga-
zine publisher six months before.
