Work as Panacea for Discontent and Poverty
A reflective passage extols work as the cure for discontent and poverty. It credits purposeful labor with social wellbeing and personal satisfaction, contrasting it with the futility felt by the indolent and self-indulgent.
Household Hints for Daily Care and Cleaning
A day should be set to finish odds and ends of work. Keep a bowl of oatmeal on the washstand to use after washing hands for smoother skin. Avoid washing colored fabrics with strong alkaline soaps or powders. Store a parasol in a cambine bag for better preservation. Smooth and fold kid gloves after each use. Use borax solution to cleanse and disinfect sponges.
