ODD JOBS FOR MEN.
JOT THEM DOWN
There are always little jobs that need doing about a house, things that worry and annoy, which would only take a few minutes of a man’s time, once he really set about doing them. When you complain for the fiftieth time, the man usually says : Well, why didn’t you tell me sooner f” It is an excelh-'d idea I j make a li.’ m e Household when you want meir help about the house, joHu.g down as you think of them fiiose tasks which are too haul or otherwise -insuita 1 It for women to do. Such a list might read somewhat like this :—“Bread-knife is dull. Hall window sticks, Box on puica to be carried outside,” etc. Keep the list where the men will see it, and see to it that they do -ee it ! Even it there is no man about the house it will be well to make such a list just the same, and when there seem to be enough odd jobs to warrant it, hire a man or boy to do them.
