Shaking
Carpets.
The
oftener
carpets
are
shaken
the
longer
they
wear;
the
dirt
that
collects
under
them
grinds
out
the
threads.
457.
Saving
Rags.
All
linen
rags
should
be
saved,
for
they
are
useful
in
sickness.
If
they
have
become
dirty
and
worn
by
cleaning
silver,
&c.,
wash
them
and
scrape
them
into
lint.

Softening
Washing-Water.
If
you
are
troubled
to
get
soft
water
for
Washing,
fill
a
tub
or
barrel
half
full
of
wood
ashes,
and
fill
it
up
with
water,
so
that
you
may
have
ley
whenever
you
want
it.
A
gallon
of
strong
ley,
put
into
a
great
kettle
of
hard
water,
will
make
it
as
soft
as
rain
water.
Some
people
use
pearlash,
or
potash;
but
this
costs
something,
and
is
very
apt
to
injure
the
texture
of
the
cloth.
459.
Protecting
Knife-Handles.
Do
not
let
knives
be
dropped
into
hot
dish-water.
It
is
a
good
plan
to
have
a
large
tin
pot
to
wash
them
in,
just
high
enough
to
wash
the
bladet
without
wetting
the
handles.
460.
Do
It
Well.
It
is
better
to
accomplish
perfectly
a
very
small
amount
of
work,
than
to
half
do
ten
times
as
much.
