塞缪尔·斯迈尔斯:节俭·摘录 418

塞缪尔·斯迈尔斯《节俭》· Thrift · 投资

There is no drinking-house in Saltaire, so that the vices and diseases associated with drunkenness are excluded from the locality. The diseases peculiar to poverty are also unknown in Saltaire. Everything is attended to--drainage, cleansing, and ventilation. There are baths of all kinds--plunge baths, warm baths, Turkish baths, and douche baths; and the wash-house, to enable the women to wash their clothes away from their cottages, is a great accommodation,--inasmuch as indoor washing is most pernicious, and a fruitful source of disease, especially to the young.

白话

索尔泰尔没有酒馆,所以与酗酒相关的恶习和疾病被挡在了社区之外,贫困特有的疾病在这里也见不到。排水、清洁、通风,样样都有人管。那里有各种浴室:冷水浴、温水浴、土耳其浴、冲淋浴;还有洗衣房,让妇女不必在自家屋里洗衣服,这是很大的便利,因为室内洗衣非常有害,尤其对小孩来说,是疾病的常见源头。这说明,健康不靠运气,而靠把居住环境的每个细节都当回事,提前消除隐患。
