Washing Fancy Work
BY Frances Marshall.

Copyright, 1917, by the Mcclure News
paper Syndicate)
Probably because the women of a
generation ago did a good deal more
':fancy work" than we they knew bet
ter how to wash it. Though we do
good many things better than they we
have lost a few of the household arts
that required time and patience. In
| truth there is no machine way to do
dainty washing. Laces must still be
handled with delicate care and so
must fine embroideries IL we would
make each washing they undergo make
them only more dainty and more at
| tractive instead of less SO.
| Here are directions for washing fine
lace that has been used for many gem
erations with perfect success and the
directions have not been improved on
in the present Instead Of the best
yellow soap" referred to you may use
any fine laundry soap, Or better still,
CASTLE soap. Getting up" by the
way, means what we should call iron
ing.
| Lace Is easily spoiled both in wash
ing and getting up, If not carefully
managed" says the directions. IF the
following rules are observed, it will
look equal to new after 1t has been
washed many times. Put two quarts
of rain water, two ounces of best yell
low soap, cut very thin, and two
ounces of soda in a Jar; when quite
dissolved, put in the work, and place
the jar in a cool oven, and let it stand
all night. Take out the lace and put
into clear water, and let it remain for
a few hours: then take it out and pin
it out on a cloth or board to dry.
"If the lace requires to be rather
stiff, dissolve in the rinsing water a
lump or two of white sugar. Starch
should never be used. And by the
way, don't do what one housewife did
and use washing soda instead of
baking soda in following out this d.
rection. Many women, who do not
have coal stoves, do not have a "cool
oven" at their disposal In this case
use the warming oven over the regular
gas oven, where the temperature is
never very hot.
Now that tatting is coming into
vogue again it may be interesting to
know how our grandmothers washed
this sort of needlework. Here is an
old rule:
Fine tatting needs care in washing
and must not be rubbed. The best
plan is to sew piece of flannel of two
or three thicknesses over a bottle, tack
the tatting upon it and make a lather
of curd soap and water, and lift the
bottle up and down in it, working the
lather we'll into the tatting with the
hand; then, when it appears clean, boil
it in a saucepan of curd soap and
water, with a dash of blue in it, for
about twenty minutes; rinse in clear
water several times, remove the tat
ting from the bottle, rinse in water,
rinse in water with lump of sugar in
1t, and pin it out to dry, putting pin
into every picot If you are careful
about it, If not pull it well into shape.
and put the right sides of the tatting
toward the blanket with a piece of fine
rag over 1t a little damp, and iron.
Afterwards pull out the picots with a
pin"
| In place of the curd soap any good
soap could be used.
