As you walk to the out house..look for green leaves.Brown ..well they just cause problems.....
If your family is really up town..they'll have three corn cobs...2 red..and a white. First wipe with one of the reds...then wipe with the white...the reason for the white..is to see if you need to use another red cob... But, i see you said squares of toliet tissue..your family must be really uppity folks. You may even want to use your socks..ifin ya got any.

Wipe off till you are clean. But after the 3 or 4 wad of paper, flush so as to not stop up the toilet. BTW, I have an aunt who called my mom and *itched about her stepson using too much toilet paper. So I guess some people really do note how much guests use.

Are you worried about using too much becasue your family counts toilet paper squares or becasue you don't want to clog the toilet? I would say use the same amount you use anywhere else. It's toilet paper not gold!

With my technique, one square is all you need.
1) Fold the square twice until it is a triangle.
2) Tear of a small piece from the apex of the triangle.
3) Unfold the square and you should have a hole in the center just big enough for a finger to fit through.
4) Put the index finger through the hole and proceed to clean 'behind you'.
5) Clean the finger with the square.
6) The piece you torn off in step2, use that to clean under the finger nail of your 'used' index finger.
That's it. One square is all you need.

Just don't stop up the toilet. Any amount less than what it takes to do that is correct.

As much as it takes to get you clean and dry. Just be considerate... don't wrap it around your hand like 10 times before you start wiping.

It depends on the relatives that you are visiting. Most outhouses still use the Sears catalog. I guess you have classier ones that use the local newspaper. the really rich use the Wall street Journal.

I wouldn't visit someone who counts every sheet of toilet paper used by their guests. If you are worried about it just bring your own but by all means let them know you brought your own. They will think you have lost your mind but then they can't complain since they didn't buy it.
