Fine Laundering,

An authority on fine laundering says
mat hot water should not be used in
washing fine table linen or embroidered
doilies. Cold water, white soap and
borax, If not borax soap, should be
used instead. One wonders If all stains
could be removed with cold water, but
the suggestion is worth passing on.
Certainly every housekeeper has at
times had difficulty In laundering table
linen satisfactorily.
