Time is money" "A penny saved is a pen
ny earned" The logical conclusion drawn from
the above maxium is that if time is money, and
money saved is money earned, then time saved is
time earned. Among the hundreds of brave,
bright women who do their own work" how
many there are who so busy from morning till
night with tasks that must be done that they can
not find time to look over the magazines and pa
pers, or the last new book. We wonder if il ever
occurred to such that they could earn-by saving
the time for such luxury without sighting any
household duty. We would like To give the eX-
perince Of one little woman who has solved the
problem.
She lives, as many do, in a rented house The
kitchen floor was originally hard pine, but of
course is never oiled, and has, through years Of
wear, become rough. Our little woman is good
hOusekeeper enough TO like a clean kitchen floor,
down upon her knees she used to 20 three
times week, breaking her back getting splin-
ters in her hands, aud making them lame from
using the scrubbing brush and floor cloth; feeling
so hot and tired that she might well be excused
for the cross word that comes TO her lips.
That was then-this is now. The old broom
taken TO the choppng block and eyened with the
hatchet making il a little "stubby" and stiff; (;
two pals, one of paper, light to handle; one self
wringing mop, and last but best package Of
Pearline. Into the pail No. the wooden one
is put some Of the Pearllne dissolved in boiling
water, and the broom; into pail No. 2-the paper
one clean water and the self wrlnging mop.
With the broom dipped in hot Pearline suds, the
little housekeeper goes deftly round the base
boards, careful not to take of the paint, and that
cleared, the broom used with longer stroke than
for sweeping, gives the Pearline a chance 10 re-
move the dirt. After place large enough is so
scrubbed the mop is used 10 wipe ii up, The
water for the mop is used to wipe il up, The
water for the mop can DE changed as often as
liked, but one dose of pearline does the whole
floor, leaving It as dark as if oiled In half the
time, with less than half the outlay OF strength,
the work is better done, and at arms length, there
by saving back, hands and-oh, important item
temper, or perhaps we should say patience.
The time thus saved-edtned- ed-Our little woman
devotes strictly TO rest and relaxation, taking il
then and there, book or paper In hand, seating
herself In the easiest chair or lying on the couch.
Now we hear from some sister who scrubs her
floor on her knees: what sits down and reads
out changing her dress what II some one should
comeT Well, If such thing should happen, the
way our little woman washes her floor letting
Pearline save her knees enables her to wear "A
better dress, and the self fwringing mop saves the
slop that might otherwise disfgure IT, II the bell
should ring We ask, Is il not easy for our little
woman TO rise from her couch or chair where she
has been resting during the moments saved, and
answer the bell with a face cool enough and a
mind calm enough TO receive the callerf Remem-
her, she would have been on her knees ON the tOor
II she had not let Pearline be her faithful servant
My sisters profit by the experience, aud rdrH a
little time to rest by using that which will save Il,
and Tighten without sighting, many household
tasks Pearlne.
