Wash-tubs are for washing clothes, and not to be used as a store-place for soiled clothes. It is almost impossible to keep wash-tubs absolutely free from dampness, and allowing clothes to stay in a damp, air- tight place will surely cause them to become moldy. There is nothing dirtier, more unhealthy, or more untidy than using our wash-tubs as store-places. To Clean Wash-Tubs. After using the tubs to wash clothes in, wash them out thoroughly with soap and \vater, then wipe them out with a clean... cloth. Be very careful to dry every- thing about the hinges of the cover of the tubs and all WATER-CLOSETS AND WASH-TUBS 65 cracks and crevices. It is in these cracks that damp- ness collects, and that cockroaches breed. After the tubs have been washed and dried, do not use them again until you are ready to wash more clothes. Bath-Tubs. Scrub out the bath-tub with soap and water every morning (not with sand-soaps of any kind, since they scratch).
