Keeping the
Home Clean
Just now it is rather between
easons. The holidays have ,passed
and the springtime is not yet quite
'with us. Can you imagine.' the far
reaching influence along health lines
it every housewife iu the entire
country gave her home a thorough
..nd severe -cleaning right now?
i The right way to clean a house
is aimple and time-saving. The
wrong way .of. cleaning a house
merelv moves the dirt and dust from
one part of the house to anothtr-J.
ier. . . .. .
A scrubbing pail and . brush a
cood broom, soft cloths dampened
to aid in collecting dust, warm
water, soap, fresh air and sunshine
are all that are required to clean up.
If a. house has been Mdly neg
lected, only one ro'otn aj a time
should 4e attempted. Unless one
has extra strength and facilities for
caring for carpet that is tacked to
the floor, it is much wiser from a
health standpoint to rip up the car
pet and thoroughly clean it, either
by beating in the fresh air or by the
steaming process known to the
professional carpet cleaner. Then
have it made into one - or several
rugst . These are easily picked up
and cleaned daily or weekly.
Closets are often the stamping
ground for innumerable germs. AH
closets should be kept clean and
in order. Once in every two months

is not too often to. openi up the
closet and remove everything it con
tains. Scrub it out thoroughly with
soap and warm water. Let it dry

whether it is a usable article, fin
the case of clothing, if the garment

It is suprising how reckless many
unthinking folks are about harboring
pots and pans unfit forusei- Once a
month go over the pots and pans. If
you find bits of food sticking on to
the pots, remove these by boiling in
water to which has been added a lit
tle baking soda or washing soda.
Th washi,0iier w;n be found con-
enient for boiling pots and pans
Burnt-on food harbors bacteria or
germs which cause decay, and a few
of these mixed into tire next food
cooked may cause illness.
Garbage pails, sinks, "toilets andl
cellars offer ideal places, for breed
ing germs. A daily cleaning with
bqiling hot soapsuds will go a long
way toward keeping them gerniless.
A neglected pail should be filled with
water to which soda has been added
and boiled again and Sgain until no
garbage adheres. ,For a cheap, ef
fective disinfectant sprinkle occasion
ally with chloride of lime. Germs
cannot live. in its presence.
' All dish cloths, cleaning cloths,
mops and the like should not be put
away full of grease and dirt. Each
should be thoroughly cleansed with
boiling water and soap and soda if
necessary and dried in the fresh air
before being stored away.

'The Hostess Plans a Spring Party

different from the St. Patrick day

"Surelv March stands for some-

my husband one evening as I sat
chewing the end of my pencil and
