SPRING CLEANING.
As homes become simpler and laboursaving devices come into more general use, the ideal of perfect cleanliness becomes steadily more practicable There is no reason why we should not have perfectly clean homes if wo do not attempt a task beyond our powers. Have everything of the very simplest and nothing that wo do not require. Clean out everything at regular intor vnls. t Clean houses arc really no trouble to keep clean And in clean homes aro nearly alwavs In be found heathy and cheerful inhabitants. Don't try to clean your rooms with dirty brushes and brooms. They store and carry germs and all kinds of infection. On washing day plunge them into the hot suds, rinse thoroughly and dry in the open air. This toughens them and makes them last longer. Brushes should be hung up when not in use. If left standing tho bristles get bent and will not do their work properly Scrubbing brushes should bo rinsed and left to dry on their sides.
