From the essay "On the preservation of a good temper in a housekeeper", by Cartharine E. Beecher she tells us how the attitude a wife in the family directally reflects onto the entire family. She tells us that if she has a equable and cheerfule temper that it will reflect upon the family. If the housekeeper has a negative attitude thn the family will be hindered by it. She tells us that a housekeeper can not maintain a quiet and cheerful state of mind. The quietness will turn into an evil frame of mind and will always over come her cheerful side.
Breecher gives us a list of considerations that may aid in prepairing a woman to meet her daily crosses:
1. A woman, who has charge of a large household should regard her duties as dignified, important, and difficult.(CR 250)
2. A housekeeper should feel that she has great difficulties to meet and overcome.(CR 250)
3.A woman deliberately to calculate on having her best-arranged plans.(CR 251)
4.To form all plans and arrangements in consistency with the means at command, and the character of those around.(CR 251)
5.It's very important to have consideration of the systems of the economy, and neatness.(CR 251)
