Some interesting place cards are
little kilograms. The envelope is
white. printed In blue, and the words
on the envelope speak of good cheer
and friendliness. The telegram inside
the envelope has more to say regard

Two dozen Of these kilograms, in a
box, are sold for Is cents Little let
tiers are also sold for place cards.
The envelopes have a slip of trans

the envelopes used by some business
firms, and the name, written on card
within the envelope, shows through
the transparent paper. A riddle print
ed on the card also shows through the
paper, and the answer to the riddle Is
printed at the top of the card, to be
read when it is taken from the en-

PROPER CARE OF EMBROIDERY

BILE
II given to the ordinary laundress,
embroidered frocks, blouses and arti-
cles for the household soon lose their
beauty. II sent to professional clean
er's, they are constant drain on the
allowance. The most delicately en-
broidered article can be successfully
cleaned at home If the following sug-
gestions are observed:
All colored embroidery should be
before washing. This will preserve the
colors.
Make suds from warm water and
a milk white soap. Rinse through
several clear waters and hang up un-
til partially dry. Roll up for half an
moderately hot iron.
Never hang up fine embroidery, but
pin on folded towels until dry enough
to iron.
II round or oval pieces show signs
of gathering up after washing, per-
haps it is due to the workers tight
stitches. To remedy this, stitch and
pin out on folded towels while wet.
Do not spare pins or trouble to have
the piece perfectly straight and fat.
ScaIloped edges demand careful
treatment. Never pull them In shape.
but lightly smooth each scallop In
place and pin.

Gle, but press the superfiuous water
