A PLACE FOR EVERYTHING.

By Miss A. C. Hudson

BY MISS A. C. HUDSON.
NEVER leave things lying about,—a shawl here, a pair of shoes there, and a hat or a bonnet somewhere else,—trusting to a servant or a member of the family to set things to rights. No matter how many servants you have, it is a miserable habit. If you use the dipper, towel, or tumbler, put it back in its place, and you will know where to find it when you want it again. Or if you set an example of carelessness, do not blame your servants and children for following it.
Children should be taught to put things back in their places as soon as they are old enough to use them. If each member of the family were to observe this simple rule, the house would never get much out of order.
