Fumigating, scouring, painting, papering, moving furniture, polishing floors, pictures, reading lamps and what not; washing win- dows and curtains, wiping walls and ceilings, cleaning rugs and so on. When it is all done we haven't a leg to stand on, but there is not a speck of dirt anywhere, nor a germ, nor a cockrqach, nor a moth, nor any such thing, for all the dust has been wiped. up and all wild life destroyed. So ends another season of housecleaning' which causes frayed nerves, disgrunt- led members of the household, and makes life, generally speaking, rather uncomfortable, while the cleaning is in progress.
