A
In the 1900's, American townspeople usually washed and brushed their teeth
and combed their hair in the kitchen. Or they kept a water pitcher³ (大水罐)and
a wash basin⁴ in their rooms and took care of these things there.
The bathtub⁵ was a wash tub⁶(澡盆)filled with water from the stove. If you were small enough you could sit down by drawing your knees to your chest⁷. Otherwise, you washed yourself standing⁸ up. Often all the women and girls in the family bathed together. Then the men and boys did. In most families this was Saturday night because Sundays they went to church.
A small number of families did have running water. But that depended on whether there was a water system where they lived and on whether they could afford the plumbing(水管设施). Some people had bathtubs⁹ in their homes as early as 1895. But many others did not have their first bath in a bathtub until 1910 or later when they were fifteen or sixteen ?years old.?
