There are numerous variations in the

blankets are ready for washing, pour
into III" bottom of the dry-tub half Il
plat of the usual household ammonia
water. an | over il lay the blanket light
ly. Then Immediately pour over Sufi-
cent warm water to entirely cover the
article. Ibis sends the fumes OF The
ammonia up through he iiher- Of the
blanket and lDoscns the dirt in Il won
derful manner. The cloth should l."
pressed and stirred ai,' u in The liquid

to he pursued with each blanket, and
the sud. is not 10 be used a secnn time.
Probably this i, one Of TIE most
economical me- huds which can be en-
p.Oycd, and the least taxing to the
physical strength. IN css the blanket
is very dirty this treatment will give a
perfectly satisfactory result. If there
