1906 A Bachelor's Cupboard

A BACHELOR'S CUPBOARD The Impecunious Bachelor $2.00 extra a month and the service of a maid Is gen- erally ten cents an hour or $1.00 a week, which in- cludes giving the room a thorough cleaning once a week and " doing it up " on other days, making the bed, dusting and airing, washing what dishes may be left from breakfast or the night before and putting things to rights generally. Thus the actual expense of the room and laundry will average about $5.00 to $5.25 a week. If the bachelor particularly wishes to retrench, he may, as many men do, care for his own room.
