FRIDAY ONLY What an unfortunate way some people have of putting off their work and leaving until tomorrow what should be done today, says the Christian Science Monitor, and how much harder those who do so make their work. The housewife who puts off mending the little tear finds tomorrow that It has reached the proportion of a lona: one. If one's work is worth doing at all. It is worth do-injr Just as well as It can be done, and If a woman's Interest Is in her work she will take pleasure In doing It well and at Its1 proper time. Circumstances sometimes prevent, hut they cannot make It the custom to delay.

Whether it Is a button to bo sewed on, the visit that will give pleasure to another, the letter that should be written or the semi-annual house cleaning, there is the right time for all these duties, and if they are not done until a few days after they should have been the delay detracts in a measure from what the result should have been. It is the many interruptions which make the housewife's work hard, and the wise woman who starts her work early in the morning will avoid many of and find how much time she has later in the day to do just as sha pleases. It is not. necessary to slight work to do it quickly, but if everything is kept up each day as it should be it relieves one of many of the hard days which housekeepers complain of. If garments are hung on their proper hooks in the closet each time, it does away with the frequent cleanings and rearrangements which these receptacles are notorious for demanding.

The same comment applies to the drawers of the dresser or chiffonier and in fact to almost every part of housework. What should he done today Is never more than what can be done today; there re often many thlns that we should like to do, but they are not really necessary unless there is the time to do them.
