New Tub Silks Are of
Particular Interest

Materials which a decade ago came
under the classification of silk are
now divided into groups distinct and
different. There are certain silks
that are primarily intended for the
smart little informal costumes worn
at resorts. Others are definitely meant
to be used for suits and tailored en-
sembles. A third class takes in the
sil6en fabrics for formal afternoon
frocks and for evening gowns. Ac-
cording to fashions ruling, one may
wear silk for practically every occa-
sion and always be costumed in per-
feet taste.
The new tub silks are of particular
interest both because of their prac-
tical qualities and their beauty. In
the plain fabrics the range of colors
is wide and takes in every shade
from the most delicate pastel tone to
more vivid shades of blue and vel
low. Those which feature designs
show extraordinary versatility. Mar
row candy stripes, wide Roman effects,
bold plaids and occasional two
toned checks are to be found in these
materials, which may be Numbered
most successfully. Their colors are
strikingly effective and reveal prog
ress that has been made in design
and in the knowledge and use of color
within the past decade.

Coal and wood stoves should be
cleaned inside frequently and thor
oughly, in order to save heat and fuel.
Ashes should be removed every day,
and once week the SCOT should be
brushed from the bottom of the lids.
All flues should be cleaned regularly,
especially those under and on top of
the oven, through which hot air must
circulate to heat it.
When the burners on gas stoves be-
come clogged, they should be taken
out, brushed, placed in large pan,
and boiled in water to which washing
soda has been added in the proper
ton of one-half pound to one gallon,
rinsed and brushed, wiped with paper

The burners and chimneys on oil or
other liquid-fuel stoves should be kept
in order in the same way as kerosene
lamps. In most makes the burners are
detachable, and when they become
clogged may be cleaned like those on
gas stoves.
The heating elements on electric
stoves may be cleaned with water and
a soft brush Any particles burned to
char may be brushed out.

bit of some. pure oil on heavy leather
gloves when you-are not using them.
Clean your non-washable leather
gloves in gasoline or remove small
spots with art gum or ether. Use
lukewarm water, preferably soft, and
a mild soap, for your washable leather
gloves. Chrome-tanned leather gloves
may be washed in hot water, but they
should be dried slowly in a natural cur
rent of air.
Wash your silk gloves in luke-warm
water, using mild soap, and pressing
them in towel and pull them into
shape when they are partly dry.
Be sure you use tepid water on your
chamoisette gloves; and never iron
them. You can wash your cotton
gloves just as you would any other cot
ton material. Wash your wooden gloves
carefully in tepid water, using little
soap in the rinse water, and pressing
the water out of them, rather than
wringing or twisting them.

Cleaning Materials Are
Most Needed In Spring

Even for housekeeping on a small
scale several kinds of cleaning mate
rails are needed to put things in ship
shape Farmers Bulletin 1880 of the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture describes them all in detail, but
the following are the most important: :
Neutral soap, that is, one with no
free alkali, and plenty of hot water
are the most useful of all dirt chasers,
or detergents. In this connection it Is
well to remember that soap solution
makes suds more quickly and cleans
more evenly and safely than soap in
cake. 1t especially pays to use up
small pieces Of soap in this way.
A stronger detergent such as am
monia, borax, or sal-soda (washing
soda), is generally needed for loosen
ing the dirt that soap and water will
not remove. These alkalis, however,
are likely to be injurious to colors and
finishes and must be applied with eau
ton.
A scourer, or abrasive, Is also indis-
pensable in housekeeping. For rub

while for zinc, iron, steel, and alu-
minum, a harsher material, such as
bath brick or steel wool, Is more salts
factory.
A bleaching agent of some sort is
generally needed for taking iron rust
stains from the white-enameled bath
tub and lavatory or from some wood
surfaces. Oxalic acid is good for this
purpose,
A furniture polish for restoring the
luster to furniture and woodwork is
also necessary. A simple kind that
gives satisfactory results can be made
at home by mixing / part raw linseed
oil with 2 parts turpentine and adding
little melted beeswax, If desired.

Plenty of soap and water are of
course taken for granted in connec-
ton with any cleaning work At the
same time it is true that in rural
homes there Is not always an adequate
water system; either from failure
to realize the Importance of an album
dant supply of water piped through
the house, and good drainage sys-
tenn for carrying away waste-or be-
cause of an idea that a water system
would cost too much, very large
number of farm housewives do not
have this essential convenience. There
are a number Of simple, inexpensive
water systems possible to the farm
home, and anyone interested can get
information about them by writing to
the United States Department of Agri-
culture.
Hot water helps to loosen dirt and
is great satisfaction for many house
hold purposes, but for cleaning it is
more likely to injure finishes and fab
RIGS than lukewarm or cold water.
Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1925-05-07

Water should not be allowed to stand
on floors or woodwork nor to get into
cracks or seams; it should be used
very sparingly and in most cases wiped
off at once.
Soap solutions are useful for MAX
ing suds quickly. They clean more
evenly and safely than soap in cake
form. A quantity may be made at
time, and bits of soap may be used up
In this way The proportion is one
pound of soap to three quarts of wa
ter, heated slowly until the soap is
dissolved. Flaked and Clipped soaps
dissolve more quickly than cake soap.
Hard cake soap may be Clipped at
home by being rubbed over a crater.
Soap may be made at home from I've
and waste fat, and the directions CIV
en- on the I've container will generally
be found satisfactory. Homemade
soaps, however, are likely to contain
free alkali, and should be used with
caution, especially on delicate and col
ored fabrics, and on paint, varnish or
other finishes.

French Hats Are Small;
Dropping Brims Promised

The early season French hats are
small. The first shapes were ex-
IRENE, with the high-peaked crown,
extremely trying to most women. or
square and tight. Later models have
modified these points, and brims grow
with the weeks, as Agnes, Reboux
Georgette. Guy and other smart Pari-
sian designers are shaping them. The
slight roll, the sharply turned side
and the high back are among number
less smart shapes, and the wide
slightly dropping brim is promised for
summer. Much fine needlework, lac
quercd flowers and quantities of rib
bon are shown on the latest chapeaux
from Paris, though the general scheme
is one Of refreshing simplicity.

Things to Know About
Proper Care of Gloves

How long can you wear pair of
gloves?
If you frequently find that your
gloves '.just split in no time" and that
you must, therefore, replenish your
supply more often than you feel you
should, perhaps your answer Is depend
ent on another question: what KIND
of care do you give them?'
This is likely to be the case, par
ticularly when your gloves are of
leather, for leather gloves depend both
for their attractive appearance and
their durability on the care that they
get. Care in putting them on and
taking them off-by drawing them
backward by the wrists the first re-
auirement for long-lived gloves. Pull
them gently into shape after you take
them off, and lay them, right side out
and carefully folded, in box or
drawer. If they are light colored it is
well to protect them from dust by
wrapping them In tissue paper; and
you will find that blue paper helps to
keep white gloves from becoming yell
low. If your gloves are at all moist
from Precipitation let them dry before
you wear them.
Many women make the mistake OF
putting their "best" gloves away and
bringing them out only on state occa'
sions. While, of course, 1t is not de-
sirable to wear your fine, delicate
gloves for rough everyday" wear, on
the other hand, you will find that
gloves left too long unworn will be-
come dried out and will have tend
ency to crack as you put them on
This is because leather needs oil, and
the natural oil of the hand helps to
keep them in condition.
In the same way, 1t Is well to rub
