To Whiton Linen.
Handkerchiefs and doilies that
have become yellow from the use of
too much soap or from old ngo may
be whitened in the following simple
manner: After they have been wash
ed in the usual way in soft water
with a good soap, put them to soak
overnight in clean water' into which
has been put some cream of tartar.
A teaspoonful to a quart of water ia
the right proportion. After they
have been rmsed and ironed tho
next day they will be almost & white
as when new.
Washing Black Muslin.
Boil two quarts of wheat bran in
two gallons of water for half an
hour. Set aside until lukewarm ; then
strain through a cheesecloth bag,
pressing hard. If thick, thin with
cold water to the consistency of
what is known as "raw starch wa
ter." Wash the lawn in this, using
neither Boap nor starch. Shake ana
wring and hang in the shade to dry.
While still damp iron on the wrong
side over old .flannel tacked upon
the ironing board. .
ii: '
Tq Remov MilcUw.
A spoonful of chloride of lime hi
a quart of water and strained
through flannel ia the best solution
to use to remove mildew. Soak the
spots in the solution for about a
minute and then lay it in the sun.
If the spots have not disappeared
repeat the process. Sour milk "and
salt is also very good, but in any
case plenty of strong sunlight is es
sential. ,
Laundry Hints.
Cold rain water and soap will re
move machine grease.
A little borax in the last rinsing
water will make handkerchiefs eas
ier to iron and look better when
done.
Ten cents' worth of sugar of lead
in three gallons of soft water will
prevent any color of ,blue from fad
ing in the laundering.
Tomato Butter,
To nine pounds of ripe tomatoes,
peeled and sliced, allow three pounds
of sugar, a pint of vinegar, three ta
blespoonfuls of cinnamon, one and
one-half tablespoonfuls of allspice
and a tablespoonful of cloves; cook
until thick, stirring often to prevent
Bcorching.

Soap the doilies well. Let stand

ing. Tack a piece of white cloth
the size of doily to the carpet, pin
every point down firm, stretch good
and let stay until thoroughly dry.
