Here Are q Few Suggestions from
Experienced Housewives at the
Institute That Will Make
Your Work Easier
There are a few definite points In
the care and use of carpet sweeper
which must be carefully followed to
insure the best results from it. First
Of all, the dustpans must be emptied
frequently. If they are permitted to
become fun, you will find the sweeper
dropping dust. The brush, too, musl
be cleaned frequently. for If tt, be-
comes matted it win not possibly be
able to do its work. Furthermore.
it is poor treatment for the brush
itself, sthe bristles are apt to be
pressed on slant instead of stand
ing out straight. To clean the brush
first cut the threads and. ahir that
have become tightly wound around IT
using pair of scissors and cutting
between the tufts Of bristles and
then comb the bristles. There arc
small devices shaped like a claw
designed particularly for the pur.
pose of cleaning bristle brushes which
would be very useful for cleaning
the sweeper brush.
After a reasonable period Of SER
vice it must be expected that the
bristles will wear down. This does
not mean that the sweeper can nc
longer be of service, however, for the
brush can be replaced, and you will
have practically ney sweeper.
Occasionally the brush should be
removed, il possible, and the dust
and fine dirt which have become
packed in the ends of the brush
-around the bearings 8 h oul be
cleaned out. Then few drops of
lubricating oil should be applied.
There is but a small amount of lubri-
cation required on an appliance OF
this nature, but it should not be
overlooked entirely if one wants the
greatest return from her machine.
The wheels and bearings are about
the only parts which need this sort
of attention. and if the sweeper is ir.
constant use. once a month is prof.
ably ofte enough to apply oil. But,
as with other mechanical appliances,
it is our advice to follow the manr-
facturer's instructions as to the parts
which require oiling. the kind Of Oil
to use. and the frequency Of oiling.

der the presser foot and covers the
space around the feed.
Start cleaning by brushing the
lint and dust from the upper side

feed. With a pin, or the point OF

from the teeth of the feed. Care

Now turn the head OF the machine
back and clean the under part OF
the shuttIerace and carrier. Use the
stiletto to remove wads Of dust and
thread from the parts which cannot
be reached by the cloth and which
the brush is not stiff enough to
remove. If there are any spots OF
hardened or gummed oil which can
not be removed by the brush or

use of a little kerosene. When all
parts are clean, use the sewing
machine oil in all the oil holes. While
the head Of the machine is turned

in the upright portion OF the machine
