thoroughly cleansed and then replaced
or are packed away until wanted for fall.
Shades are taken down. and if soiled

bread or a lump of dough formed by mix
ing flour and water together. AS one
part of the lump becomes dirty ii can be
worked into the mass, so the surface re-
mains white, but when all is soiled a
clean lump must be made.
Linen shades will launder prettily If
carefully washed and then passed through

In cleaning any kind of wash curtains
that have been in use all winter. they
must first be hung in the air and then
thoroughly brushed. using medium stin
whisk broom
This will remove all the dust and thus
make the washing easier.
They should then be laid in tub of hot
suds and soused up and down until the
CRIME is removed, then rinsed in warm
water, afterward in cold. and then in
slightly blued water.
Before drying they should be put
through boiling starch and then pinned
to the frames. Unless the curtains are
to go up again at once. IT is better to de-
fer the starching until they are wanted,
as starch often rots curtain fabrics.
Lace curtains require no ironing. Dotted
swiss net etc. that is either white or
cream color, may be washed according to
the process for lace curtains, but should
be dried before ironing.
4 thinner starch than that used for lace
curtains should be employed. When quite
dry the curtains should be sprinkled and
rolled tightly until the following morn
ing. when they may be ironed. Clean
very clean-hot irons are necessity; and
SO is ironing wax. though If little
borax has been used in the starch there
will be less danger of thexirons sticking.
The frills are ironed first. If there are
any, and then the body of the curtain.

the width.

him by the black stripes on his wings
that papa said were there. Well, when
the stork was standing alone on one

in his ear that l wanted him to bring

it, because he bent his head toward
