CLEAN LACE AT HOME
NOT NECESSARY TO SEND FAB
RIc TO PROFESSIONAL.
Simple Fundamental Rules Kept in
the Memory Is the Only Secret
Sunshine and Fresh Air the
Two Main Requisites.

In this day when lace is in its ele-
neDt the professional cleaners must
be reaping a fortune simply from the
lace frocks and bloGses. petticoats.
hats and neckwear that are brought
10 them 70 be made spotless. For
most women are afraid of lace. They
will tackle gloves and shoes, velvet.
silk and chiffon whit will, but they
balk at lace.
In reality lace is no more difficult
TO clean than any other fabric. IL you
know how to do il. But, of course. TO
be successful as a lace cleaner you
must take the trouble to learn some
thing about the various methods OF
cleaning and drying.
Wash net, which is much used for
blouses and frocks, can be washed and
dried and ironed Just like any other
cotton fabric. It should be carefully
ironed, of course. so that it win not
be pulled out OF shape. There is little
danger of stretching It: in fact, #
shrinks little. But as II must be
ironed when fairly damp in order 10
come out fresh and new looking. IL
is easily pulled out OF shape in the
ironing.
The secret OF washing lace success
fully is TO get most of the dirt and
dust and CRIME out of il with as little
rubbing as possible First shake the
lace in the open air and give il a
bath In the sunshine. Sunshine. by
the way. and fresh air are friends OF
lace, iGst as dust and darkness are its
worst enemies, Then. after summing
and airing It. soak II in fuLewarm
soapsuds. For this suds dissolve shaw
ings of CASTLE or other white soap I'M
boiling water, and TO every gallon of
water add two tablespoonfuls Of
boray
II tie piece of lace 10 be cleaned is
small the easiest way to clean Il is
with soapsuds and let II stand for
four or five hours. In the days when
coal fires We're the rule, even in sum
mer kitchens. good results were had
from putting the jar containing lace
and suds in a cool oven at night and
leaving it there until morning. The
heat of the oven kept the temperature
of the soapy water at low heat.
which was effective in extracting
every grain OF dust and dirt
While the lace is soaking shake the
jar from time to time If il is very
soiled change the suapy water two or
three times. OF course If the piece OF
lace is too big 20 get in jer. soak
1t in a big granite saucepan or tab.
When the lace seems clean rinse it
in three or four changes of clear luke
warm water Don't rub the lace when
II is in the soapy water and don't
wiring II when IL is in the clear water.
To get rid of the water simply press
the lace firmly between the hands, or
press 1t between two clean bath tow
els. When il is moderately free from
water pin 1t. right side up, on an iron.
ing board.
II It is necessary TO stiffen the lace.
dissolve little gum arabic in water
and add this to the last rinsing water.
In the case OF pure white lace a little
blueing should also be added 10 this
water.
