Prudence in Furnishings and Economy
A 19th century essay urges moderate spending in home furnishing, cautions against ostentation, and extols restraint, industry, and neatness. Mrs. L. M. Child advocates prudence for rich and poor alike, urging women to aid reform and resist finery in favor of honesty, economy, and tasteful simplicity. A stray anecdote ends with a loafer and a bull horn tale.
