Show Air the lleddlng. wish that more people who take upon themselves thecuroof guests knew how to tako proper care of bedding. In the nature nat-ure of things it is not possible without a great expense to have the covering of mat tresses mid pillows frequently renewed; re-newed; therefore every pains should be taken to keep them fresh. It is a common com-mon thing to leave rooms which aro 'unoccupied 'un-occupied fitted up ready for a guest, with even the sheets and lied covering on the bed. In thin way the lied gathers dampness in a cold, unaircd room for a long time, and tho most serious consequences conse-quences may result to the first unfortunate unfortu-nate guest who occupies that room. Whenever a room is unoccupied for any length of time tho bedclothes should bo put away in the linen closet, and the mattresses lifted tip from the bedstead, so the itjr can strike it on ull sides. It is a moment's work to dust the bedstead, rephice tho mattress and make up the bed with thoroughly nired bedclothes, nnd tho refreshment that is experienced from a sleep on such a bed compared with tho nightmare of an experience ex-perience in a room where tho bedding has not been aired for perhaps six months more than pays for the trouble. It is a positive injury to u good hair mattress to keep it without properly airing air-ing and turning it for months. Margaret Mar-garet Fairfax in boston Commonwealth. |
