"The process is perfectly simple if ce
tain plain directions are carefully TO
lowed. First, wash them thorough
in warm soapsuds, only rubbing tt
soap on very bad spots; when we
washed, rinse in cold water twice, tai
ing care that no soap is left in IL
goods. Then hang out to dry in Il
shade; never in the sun. Let the watt
drip off, but not wiring them. The
should be hung by the waist, and Il
moisture that collects at the end
each leg pressed off from time to tin
with a towel. When nearly dry, bl
still damp, they should be turned {
the wrong side and ironed dry; W
finally turn on the right side az

lowed there will be no material shrin
age, and the wooden will be as soft M
bright-looking as ever.-N. Y. Tribln
