Why Clothes Should Be Boiled.
in the Woman’s Home Companion:
sppehrs a most practical article en-
’titled "The Washing of Clothes” The
author gives a complete description of
what she considers the best methods
in the whole process of clothes-wash-
1ing. Following is what she has to say
about boiling clothes:
E “Some housekeepers believe in boil~
ing the clothes before rubbing. and
some do not believe in boiling them at
all. Others believe that clothes are
made yellow when they are improper
ly rinsed when there is iron in the we
tor or a deposit of iron is formed from
the boiler. or by the use of an impure
soap. 0n the other hand. boiling takes
an important part in the dissolution
and removal of the soap which expert
housekeepers. who know that the soap
must be removed if the clothes are to
keep their color and wearing qualities.
will recognize as an indisputable rea-
son why the clothes should be boiled
-—and boiled after rubbing. in these‘:
days of sterilizing, it seems illogicalE
Eio accept as clean, unbolled clothes"
