Ironing Linen.

or great Importance is the ironing
of linen, While hard pressure is es-
sential to obtain luster or give per-
feet smoothness. an overdegree is
harmful. as garments are thus likely
to cut at the folds-which is likewise
the objections to wringers and man
giles.
Creasing should always be done
very lightly. And in the ironing OF
hemstitched towels the same precau-
tons apply. as the tendency is to
bring the iron down forcibly against
the stitching. which is invariably the
point at which it first breaks.
