In Igatpuri, we have a number of houses given over to dhobi occupants. The dhobi enjoys living near others of his caste; therefore, where one is others will be found. India's washerman has some utensils that Noah left. He uses mud stoves, rough sticks for racks, and any rough stone will do for a washboard. Before we left New York city for India, we pur- TO THE RIDICULOUS 79 chased a small washboard with hopes of introducing something better than a stone in washing clothes. Onr hopes thus far ha...ve been blighted, as they are not slow to give us to understand, though it is in a meek, mild way, that what is good enough for their renowned ancestors is good enough for them. The dhcbi commences his wash in a pe- culiar way. He has a brass vessel two feet in diameter and eight inches deep which is nearly filled with water. Then some soap or khar, a sort of salt mineral, is added to the water, and the vessel placed on the mud stove and securely ce- mented in with mud. A few sticks are placed across the top of the vessel and the soiled clothes piled upon them, oftentimes reaching as high as five feet.
