HOW To SYSTEMATIC TIL
DUTIES OF HELPERS
IN THE HOME.

To set aside any doubts on the
subject in house keepers minds, &c is
wise 10 take up the subject Of the
duties Of household help. To begin
with. each household should have
its laws and they should be plainly
stated 70 the applicants who come
for work, so that there may be no
mistake. and the old argument Of
this is or is not my work, can never
be used.
Houses where there is but one
maid are generally a law unto them
selves, and the work has TO be done
In accordance with family hours,
income, number Of children and the
conveniences at hand. Where there
are two or more servants, however
there should be the recognized rules
nnd regulations which spell good
housekeeping.
or Monday morning, If the cook
washes. the housemaid gets break
fast and washes the dishes, the wise
mistress drys them, and the maid
does the upstairs work and also the

is free 70 go to market At lunch
con the hOusemaid gets the meal
and the mistress helps. She also
makes the dessert and gets the din
ner things started with the maid do
ing the rougher portion. The cook
gets the dinner and the maid helps
her all she can. because the cook is
tired with the washing.
Tuesday, the maid gets break
fast and luncheon and the mistress
helps as before. Dinner. the cook
gets. Wednesday. the cook finishes
the ironing. Thursday, upstairs
cleaning is done by the maid, and
the closets and extra cleaning are
done by the cook. IN the afternoon
one or both go out, according to the
rule. In most places they go sep
arately one getting dinner and do
ing the necessary work OF the other,
so that afternoon and evening both
are included IN the outing. Friday
is upstairs cleaning day. and the
cook usually divides her own clean
ing in cellar. laundry and kitchen.
Saturday general strengthening for
