A enrit'Spondetit of the l.oudnn Times who is studying the plague at Oporto has soiuet hing 1 1 say on the comparative cleanliness of different nations which will probably be little relished iu Kngle.ud. After .showing that the general conditions m the J'mtuguese city are favorable to the spread uf tho disease because the per ph sillier from a lack of uoiirishmeut and the health authorities arc deficient iu sysiem, lie adds that the lower classes have their advantages, never theless, over the corn spnudiiig classes of the Jiritish isl- s, sim-o they wear cleaner clothes ami are cleaner and neuter m their housework, j As if this wore not enough, he ex lend, the comparison so as to include other eotiiiti n s, uiitl puts the liritous ; way ir. the rear. Testifying from an experience in all the Kiiroponn States with the exception of those in the lial l;an region ho says; 'When we art) clean, no pcopleiire so clean, hut who.; we are dirty we are dirtier than any body else. 'That, dreadful smell of ht'l inanity, which is caused by the retell tion of bodily refuse on the surface of l lie skin, is alums! peculiar to our country, uiitl it pervades the persona ami still mole the homes of the great muss of tun- ni him population." Clean clothes, he thinks, are of more importance than clean bodies.
