HOW "a Clean a Rain Goa, !.

This is an excellent way of cleaning
the mud off your cloak: To take off
the stains rub with plain warm water
Dip the garment in cold soft water;
then with a scrubbing brush and yellow
soap proceed to scrub it all over, having
spread the garment fat on the table
When the dirt is removed, dip the coat
in repeated waters to get rid of the
suds, but do not wiring It, Hang it up
in the air or in an airy room to dry but
do not put near the fire. Paint or
grease spots may be removed by scour-
ing drops or spirits of turpentine but
common soap will do the rest The
dirtiest parts will require most scrub
bling. In cleaning mackintoshes al
ways avoid hot water

Be careful to choose a fine day. Shake
them free from dust and dirt divide
them into small lunches, cutting off the
roots, and hang them across a line In

put them in paper bags, label them and
keep them on the kitchen dresser or
