CARE OF LAOES.

Iron lace on the right side first, then
on the wrong side to throw up the pat
tern.
When putting lace away. fold as little
as possible. A good plan is to wind IL
round card, as they do in the shops.
When ironing laces. cover them with
clean. white tissue paper. This pre-
vents the shiny look seen on washed
lace.
Use contour instead OF ordinary
starch for stffening laces. This makes
them firm and does not detract from
the lacy appearance.
Laces and other delicate trifles should
be placed in a muslin bag before being
boiled. This prevents their getting lost
and torn In the wash.
After getting up" laces do not lea We
them to air in a damp PLAYGROUND
the fire when the kettle is boiling. for
instance. This robs them Of their fresh
ness and makes them look limp.
All laces before being ironed should
be carefully pulled out. each point re-
cesving attention. You will be-repaid
for your trouble. as the lace will look
twice as nice and last clean a mucf
longer time.
