DON'T STARCH TABLE LINEN.

A well known authority says that
table linen should never be starched.
It IS a common mistake that many
housekeepers make and nothing so
detracts from the appearance and life
of handsome linen as starch. Elbow
grease" is all that one needs to make
the proper kind of linen stiff. 1t
should be ironed damp, to get the
fine sheen so characteristic OF well
laundered linen. II 1t is ironed when
it is dry, or nearly so, 1t gets fuzzy.
