Washing a Brussels Carpet

Dear Margery Doom:
Will you kindly tellFrne how to go
about scrubbing a brussels carpet?
Mine looks dingy, and | was told
that I could easily clean 1t at homo.
/ am faithful reader of your inter-
esting page. MRS. HAIRY II.
Washing a carpet is easy, in that
the process is simple, but it is rather
hard on the arms and knees.
Clean the carpet with soap bark
water. Take a scrubbing brush
and thoroughly wash and rub the
carpet the same way as the nap.
You will have to remove all the fur
niture and then leave the room to
air until the carpet is thoroughly
dry. II the carpet LIS used before 1t
is dry It will catch more dust, and
be Literally ruined. Add a little
ammonia to the water. which often
restores the coloring of an old car
pet.
\ Soap bark may be procured in
any drug store.

Sewing Suggestions

An excellent way to finish armz
holes in a fine lingerie blouse is to
sew the sleeves in by machine, then
buttonhole around the edges with
either a coarse thread or soft floss.
Almost any dress can be made III
to date by removing the old collar,
cutting the neck in v and filling
it in with airy folds of tulIe, AL
ways there must be the little decolette
front.
When sewing on a skirt braid it is
a good plan, after securing it in the
usual way, to take needle and
strong thread and oversew the braiG
with few stitches every here an6
there. Then, when the braid, gets
trodden on it will not tear far..
