A Nation of ISHtliers. Among the working classes in Siam even the festoons of cobwebs rarely attract at-tract attention, though they may be black with age and dust and smoke (for there are no chimneys to the houses, and the cooking is all done inside). And yet in their own way the Siamese are a very cleanly peoplo. They ara a nation of bathers, and from infancy always indulge in a regular plunge two or three times a day. The children are amphibious, and rather more at home and much happier Id the water than in tho house. New York Journal.
