Pad the ironing board with thick
quilt or old blanket, then lay the board
on the table and cut piece Of heavy
muslin so It will fit the board loosely.
Seam it up, leaving the slip open at
each end. Make two of these slips,
and change them frequently. Thus the
ironing board is always clean, and the
padding will not have to be changed
for months.
Cream that is too thin to whip may
be made to do so by adding the un-
beaten white of an egg before begin
ming to whip it.
One very good method for cleaning
grass stains from linen is, to soak 1t
for a few minutes in kerosene, then
wash it in hot water, using plenty Of
soap.
Files that have been stained or dis
cofored, can be improved If cleaned
with fine sand and paraffine. 1t may
be necessary to give them two or three
applications.
When putting in filling of any kind
remember to toss it in lightly with a
fork; don't pack it in tightly. If you
do your filling will be heavy and too
solid.
