His credit was sufficient to purchase ten dollars' worth of stock, which he made up and sold, paying for his stock; he then made another purchase and was hard at work to purchase a little home. His wife was washing and house-cleaning, with the same object in view.

This, owing to its sharp angles, which persisted in catching in the soft decaying wood in his whirlwind of house-cleaning, he allowed to remain. Having thus, in a general way, prepared for the coming winter, the self-satisfied little rodent dismissed the subject from his active mind.

Word came to some other villages in the Pyeng-yang area that the police would visit them on April 27th, to inspect the house-cleaning. The Christians received warning that they must look out for a hard time. Everything was very carefully cleaned, ready for the inspection.

He looked about the room, and she knew that he was taking note of her house-cleaning, but he made no remark on the subject. "Well, let's get breakfast," she said, after a moment's pause, and for lack of other conversation. "You must be hungry." Dave's purchases had been liberal. They included fresh meat and vegetables, canned goods, coffee, rice and raisins.

"She ain't drawin' good. I do' know what's got into her." By noon of this particular September day a blue-and-gold Wisconsin September day Mrs. Brewster had reached that stage in the cleaning of the attic when it looked as if it would never be clean and orderly again. Brewster's official house-cleaning uniform.

If you have been living in cottage-chambers, rooms in which a full-sized man can hardly stand erect in the centre, and a well-grown baby scarcely creep at the sides, unventilated, heated beyond endurance during the hot summer days, and retaining their heat through the long, wakeful nights, rooms in which the furniture must stand at various distances from the walls as if marshalled for the house-cleaning battle, but in which even the making of beds is a work of supreme difficulty, if you've been living in such rooms as these, I don't wonder, whatever architects or other men may say, that Mrs.

She called to her mother, who was scrubbing the floor of the hallway just beyond the open door,

Spring house-cleaning was just finished, and they have company so seldom that they made us feel that we were doing them a favor by stopping. Poor old "Pa" hobbled out to help put the team away, and when they came back, Cora Belle asked me out to help prepare supper, so I left Mr. Stewart with "Granny" and "Pa" to listen to their recitals and to taste their many medicines.

The affairs of life, such as house-cleaning, dish and window-washing, dust-removing, and scrubbing and clothes-washing, and all the endless sordid and necessary details, were simplified by invention until they became automatic. We of to-day cannot realize the barbarously filthy and slavish lives of those that lived prior to 1925.

Of the pleasures of house-cleaning, I had at length a surfeit; when a ring, which I knew among all others, surprised me. I looked at the clock. It was past four, and the kitchen still in confusion, and the hearth cold. I sank in a chair-in a swoon from sheer exhaustion.
