Read the passage below and choose the correct answer 131135
Thrift is the spirit of order applied to domestic management and organization. Its objective is to manage frugally the resources of the family, to prevent waste and avoid useless expenditure. Thrift is under the influence of reason and forethought, and never works by chance or by fits. It endeavours to make the most and the best of everything. The words "waste not, want not", carved in stone over Sir Walter Scott's kitchen-fire place at Abbotsford, express in few words the secret of order in the midst of abundance. Order is most useful in the management of everything - of a household, of a business, of a manufactory, of an army. Thrift is the spirit of order in human life. It is the prime agent in private economy. It preserves the happiness of many a household. And it is usually, women who regulates the order of the house-hold, it is mainly upon her that the well-doing of the society depends. It is therefore all the more necessary that she should be educated early in habit and virtue of orderliness.
