KEEPING MACHINE IN ORDER
Systematic Care VIII Make Sewing
Easier and Prolons the Life Of
the Machine.

It IN a simple matter to keep the
sewing machine in perfect order. bat
1t Is a rare thing to find one that Ia
properly cared for. Here are n few
hints from a woman who has discov.
+ that II she wants any tool to do
good work she must take GOOD care OF
1t.
In the first place. a nghted match
or a candle will do wonders for a sew
Ing machine. You light the match. or
candle and apply 1t to the wheels and
ccgs. ALI the lint and threads that
have caught there and wrapped around
them will burn and the char that re-
suits can easily be wiped off with O
clean cloth. You will be simply
amazed at the difference this will
make In the running OF your machine.
Then, too, another cause of q bad
running machine is that the oil in a
machine gums. 1t is really very little
trouble to remove the head, place II
in a big pan and wash it in gasoline.
1t makes an old machine run like a
new one, or ever easier than a new
one.
Only you must not forget one
thing. Gasoline is not a lubricant, 80
after washing out the gummed parts
and cleaning them thoroughly, you
must oil the machine with a good lu.
bricating oil. If you try these two
things whenever your machine begins
to run a little hard. I think you will
Dc a~greeably surprised at the result
