In the more modern apartments up town, laundry tubs are in each apartment, and the biggest bone of contention is thus removed. But a large number of the New York apartment houses are equipped with common laundries, where in only a limited number of family washings can be done at ona and the same time. Probably because of the Biblical in junction that "cleanliness is next to Godliness," most of, the housewives; desire above all things to wash on Monday. If they cannot Jiave that day, they want the nearest to the first of the week that they can get The jan itor is the autocrat whp allots wash days, and thus he is the - recipient of all sorts of Ktnts, bribes and persua sions. He has various expedients for settling the clamor for washdays.
