Sweeping, though = common prsc-
tice, should not be done according to
tho rule laid down for all great achieve
ments in life-do not ''begin a; the bot
tom of the ladder" (or the stair, ~ the
case may BEL for ascension To the high
es, part Of your dwelling. Begin a. the
top Of the "'tOpmost =" room, and, with
hair and hands protected, sweep the
walls well, destroying the "skillf1l"
spider, who tolls and spins that you NAV
find no leisure for idling. Having closed
all doors Of warirobes, closets and con-
Meeting rooms, dsmpened the broom,
sprinkled the floor of carpeted, with
damp meal, otherwise, with water),
sweep the dirt into the hall, closing the
door behind lou. When each room has
been treated, sweep the ball and stair
way, each room below, and lastly, the
hall below, taking the dirt GU. the back
door on to 3 dustpan, or box SET with
one side beneath the projection Of
porch, or last step. By this time the
dust will have settled above, and you
may go 20 work vigorously with s
buster made of the soft feathers Of q
turkey, seved with stout thread around
a handle with 9 notch in IL for holding
an occasional wrap Of the thread. The
inside Of each feather should be oot, in
constructing 3 buster, causing Il to re
semble an expanding convolyulus, or
petunia. with green morocco cslyx for
concealing the penends and stitches.
The broken handle Of a parasol is q
good foundation TO work upon, and is
usually furnished with shook or crook
for hanging If up II not, tie s red tape
around one of the delicate grooves.
When done sweeping and busting, wipe
up spots upon the door or carpet, and
leave the rooms 20 air.
