Order and cleanliness are two rcqui-
sites for housekeeping. One hardly
exists without the other. Dust and
litter are the results of not "ridding
up OF course, where there is but
one pair of hands to do everything,
and many children to diSarrangc the
house, il is hard to keep things
picked up" But children can be
trained TO orderly habits. This not
only lightcns the mothers work, but
will be Il lifelong benefit to the child
ren, helping them when they have
houses of their own, or bencliting
them in whatever pursuit they may be
engaged,
Nowadays methOdical ways are i'm
pCratiycly necessary. In the school
room. the teachers desk is subjected
to inspection, the condition of floor,
the blark-boardS and all the surround
ings are noted and marked, and the
yoluminouS reports she hands in must
be as clean and neat as print. The
clerk who files his papers and makes
careful memoranda will be equally
careful in wcighticr matters, and this
good quality, like the leaven in the
parable, will lcaven the whole.
To return to the subject of teaching
children to be orderly: it can be ac-
complishcd if the mother be patient.
The child can be taught when it un-
dresses at night to arrange the clothes
which it has removed neatly and tidily
upon chair not leaving them in a
bundle, to be put on the next morning
as crumplcd and whinklcd as though
the dog had used them for bed.
Playthings which it scattcrs about
can be put beyond reach until the
child learns to take care of them prop
erly. do not care how elegant and
luxurious the furnishing of the house
may be, if there are everywhere scat
tered about newspapers, tatterct
books, scraps of sewing; if wraps ant
hats are thrown down on chairs ant
sofas; burned matches and dried-ul
flowers on the tables and mantles-l
would rather take up my abode in
home | know of, where the floor il
covered with bright new rag carpe
and the furniture is corresponding!
plain. OF course, there is another eX
ample that is quite as bad. The womal
who fumes and frets over every specl
and mote, and who immolates he
family on the altar of Lares and Pc
mates, is far worse than her easy-goinl
sister who would not know if he
children went to bed like
-"My son, John,
With one shoe off and one shoe on"
Reasonable cleanliness and order ar
perfectly compatible with comfort an,
joyousness and freedom that consti
