BLANKETS AND QUILTS
BEST WAY OF CARING FOR THE
BED ACCESSORIES.
Little GIycerln Added to the Rinse
Water Is Reoommended-Qullts
Liable to Fade May Be Cleaned
With Gasoline.

The following Is the best way to
wash blankets: Slice half cake Of
any good laundry soap in two quarts
Of water. Set on the stove and stir
until dissolved. When dissolved, add
to cold water In tub. To this soapy
water add four tsblespoonfuls OF pow
dered borax. Soak the blankets In
this over night or for several hours.
Wash in this water. Rinse twice In
cold water, wiring and hang on the
line. This recipe will wash four
blankets. Be sure and use only cold
water and they will come forth as soft
and beautiful as when new. A tea
spoonful of glycerin added to the
rinse water will improve them.
Very heavy blankets may sometimes
be cleaned by hanging them on the
line and turning the hose on them,
spraying them all over. Stretch them
full length, and fasten heavy weight
at each hanging corner to prevent the
wind from swaylng and wrapping them
into a roll upon the line. The weights
hold them in shape, and when spread
out in this manner they dry quickly.
Cotton blankets are washed differ
emily from those made Of WOOL Soap
them well with laundry soap, fold, and
allow them to soak in tepid water.
Wash them In an hour or 80 and place
In a boiler Of hot suds to steam. not
boil. Rinse in several waters. Use
very little bluing and dry them
double on the line. Press dry on the
wrong side
Quilts that are liable TO fade II
washed may be cleaned with gasoline.
Allow 1t to remain over night. Drain
and place in a second tub Of gasoline.
Strain the gasoline in the first tub
and use 1t, with fresh supply for
cleaning the second piece. When
washing colored quilts avoid using al
kali. 1t will run the colors and ruin
the material. II quilts are badly
soiled, put kerosene In the first tub.
1t will cut the dirt.
Bedding washed early in the spring
may be dried out OF doors. but the
pieces should afterward be thrown
over line hung In a room. to dry
thoroughly. Ticking should be soaked
in water containing borax. Iron the
pieces dry. II thin, coat lightly with
parafhn on the wrong side. This will
prevent feathers from working
through.

venting their fury on the drunken

nor any Of his band of fighters. Years
afterward. a. hunting band from
Chichen liza made a long journey to
the south. They finally reached a
