SAVING ON LAUNDRY BILLS
Frequent Pressing VIII Do Much To
ward Preserving Appearance of
the Thin Garments.

The woman whose ambition It is to
always look well dressed will pay spe
cial attention 10 the pressing of her
garments. A linen shirt waist or suit
should be pressed after each wearing.
All thin waists and dresses can be
worn twice as long before being laun-
dered if they are pressed often They
are usually more mussed than soiled
when put in the wash. Garments which
must be pressed on the wrong side.
but which need touch on the right
side, may be pressed very nicely pro-
vided piece of smooth tissue paper is
used to protect the goods from. the hot
iron. When ironing silks and ribbons
the use of tissue paper will prevent
them from becoming shiny.
A white frock or blouse that is soiled
in places, but not enough to require
laundering. may be much improved
by the following method Dissolve
some gloss starch in warm water,
moisten the soiled portions with this
mixture and press carefully. The gar
ment will look almost as good as new
and may be worn several times with
out laundering
Lingerie waists will not get mussed
nearly as soon and are 1nuch easier to
iron when subjected to the following
method; Wash as usual. but do not
starch. When dry. dip in borax water,
using one tablespoonful of borax to
one quart of warm water. Wiring out

To Peel a Tomato.

The tomato season is with us, and
many housekeeper would be glad to
know how to slip the skin off without
the use of boiling water. Press the
back or blunt part of knife against the
tomato, keep pressing around from
center to core, two or three times,
without breaking the skin, then strip
off, with the same result as using hot
water. sThis is easy to do and is espe-
cially nice in summer. when you prefer
tomatoes cold for salad.

To Cook an Egg.

Have the water boiling rapidly, then
break the egg into it and set it on top
