Who has not beheld with dis- may one’s favorite damask hopelessly—— it would seem—discolored with peach, cherry and berry stains! Some sugges- tions culled from that best of teachers-— enperience~and that P30 not generally known may be of assistance in remedy- ing the mishap. In the first place, do not wash thelinen before applying other remedies; to do so then has to pass through all stages until time and the laundry leave but a pale yellow reminder, which consummation does not follow usually until the fabric is threadbare. For berry stains. have someone hold the cloth so that it sags a little and pour absolutely boiling water through the wet spot; tub well. If this fails. light a bit of sulphur and held under the wet spot—a lighted match will answer; the sulphurous gas usually docs the work, the stain gradue'ly disappear- vng. But there are some that, like Lady Macbeth’s “damned spot," will not “out"——-peach stains for example. Then you must have recourse to salts of lemon, which is good, but not to leave a hole in lieu of the sr-in. . By extreme careful- ness in l'i use, however, it will not do such dire damage. Take a sunny day for the task; first moisten the spot and then rub on a very little of the salts of lemon; lay the [men in the sun for two or three minutes and then wash thorough- ly with soap and warm water. Success nearly always fo‘ lows. Other s'1ins,‘ike iron rust, are more easily removed. After washing the arti- cle, squeeze lemon juice on the spots and then cover quickly with salt. Loy in the sun all day, wash, and if the mat is not entirely removed repeat the application. This is equally good for ink stains. An excellent washing fluid, that closely resembles the celebrated Javelle water, is made as follows: Have ready two gallons of boiling water: stir in thoroughly a pound of sal- eoda and a quarter of a pound of unslack- ed lime. When it is settled and perfect- ly cool, skim well and let it boil again. Take from the fire and when settled pour off the clear fluid into bottles or stone jars that can be tightly corked. Use in the proportion of a cupful to a large bucketful of water. A hacking cough keeps the bronchial tubes in a state of constant irritation, which, if not speedily removed, may lead to chronic bronchitis.
