HOUSE CLEANING SUGGESTIONS.


In cleaning bed chambers all furniture
should be moved, pictures and ornaments
taken from the walls and carpets taken
up. Bare walls, if hard finished, should
be wiped down and papcrcd over, cleaned
oil with II dry cloth. Paints should be
washed; windows washed and polished,
floors wiped OIL with hot water, and
rlnscd with strong brine. In washing
closets and privics, very hot water should
be used, and after drying thoroughly, they
should he spriniilcd with bcnzine to de-
stroy vcrmin and moths. Carpets should
be freed from dust before putting down.
Ii spots of grccsc or dirt still remain,
they can be removed with hot water and
pearlinc. When bed chambers arc in
order, the paror and dining-ro should
be cleaned in the same way, and then the
Kitchens, where special care should he
taken. All the baking pans, tin ware and
crockcry utensils should be put in boil
IN. water, and then secured The walls
should be white washed and floors
scrubbed: sinks and dishes should be
cleaned with carbolic acid and hot water.
After the house has been cleaned from
attic 10 cellar, the yard and out build
ings should undergo the same process, all
rubbish and dirt being hauled from the
premises, and lime and carbolc acid
freely used TO cleanse and purify.
