tuIat how To clean room thoroughly
Isotnc Of them specifying the living room,
that / venture tins little talk IN the sub

of the lighting fixtures.
Return 10 the living room and dust
the woodwork, clean spots on paint or

OF the fireplace Ii YOU have 3 carpet
on the floor, wipe II with a cloth wrung
from water and ammonia
Then replace hangngs, small furniture
and the rugs IF You use them Remove
cloths from furniture and polish wood
work. Put back shades and curtains and
