Domestic
Rules.
Mrs
Hamilton,
in
her
"Cottagers
of
Glenburnie,"
gives
three
simple
rules
for
the
regulation
of
domestic
affairs,
which
deserve
to
be
remembered,
and
which
would,
if
carried
into
practice,
be
the
means
of
saving
time,
labour,
and
patience,
and
of
making
every
house
a
"well-ordered"
one.
They
are
as
follows:
i.
Do
everything
in
its
proper
time.
ii.
Keep
everything
to
its
proper
use.
iii.
Put
everything
in
its
proper
place.
440.
An
Ever-dirty
Hearth,
and
a
grate
always
choked
with
cinders
and
ashes,
are
infallible
evidences
of
bad
housekeeping.
441.
Economy.
If
you
have
a
strip
of
land,
do
not
throw
away
soapsuds.
Soapsuds
are
good
manure
for
bushes
and
young
plants.
442.
Washing
Woollens.
Woollen
clothes
should
be
washed
in
very
hot
suds,
and
not
rinsed.
Lukewarm
water
shrinks
them.
443.
Keeping
Coffee
and
Tea.
Do
not
let
coffee
and
tea
stand
in
tin.
444.
Freshness
of
Surfaces.
Scald
your
wooden-ware
often,
and
keep
your
tin-ware
dry.
445.
Re-using
Letters.
Preserve
the
backs
of
old
letters
to
write
upon.
446.
Make
Writing-Books.
If
you
have
Children
who
are
learning
to
write,
buy
coarse
white
paper
by
the
quantity,
and
make
it
up
into
writing-books.
This
does
not
cost
half
so
much
as
it
does
to
buy
them
ready
made
at
the
stationer's.
447.
No
Waste.
See
that
nothing
is
thrown
away
which
might
have
served
to
nourish
your
own
family
or
a
poorer
one.
