Blond
Lace.
Blond
lace
may
be
revived
by
breathing
upon
it,
and
shaking
and
flapping
it.
The
use
of
the
iron
turns
the
lace
yellow.
2733.
Washing
Bed
Furniture,
&c.
Before
putting
into
the
water,
see
that
you
shake
off
as
much
dust
as
possible,
or
you
will
greatly
increase
your
labour.
Use
no
soda,
or
pearlash,
or
the
articles
will
lose
their
colour.
Use
soft
water,
not
hot,
but
warm:
have
plenty
of
it.
Rub
with
mottled
soap.
On
wringing
out
the
second
liquor,
dip
each
piece
into
cold
hard
water
for
finishing.
Shake
out
well,
and
dry
quickly.
If
starch
is
desired,
it
may
be
stirred
into
the
rinsing
water.
2734.
Washing
with
Lime
(1).
Half
a
pound
of
soap;
half
a
pound
of
soda;
quarter
of
a
pound
of
quick-lime.
Cut
up
the
soap
and
dissolve
it
in
half
a
gallon
of
boiling
water;
pour
half
a
gallon
of
boiling
water
over
the
soda,
and
enough
boiling
water
over
the
quick-lime
to
cover
it.
The
lime
must
be
quick
and
fresh;
if
quick,
it
will
bubble
up
when
the
hot
water
is
poured
over
it.
Prepare
each
of
these
in
separate
vessels;
put
the
dissolved
lime
and
soda
together,
and
boil
them
for
twenty
minutes;
then
pour
them
into
a
jar
to
settle.
2735.
Washing
with
Lime
(2).
After
having
made
the
Preparation,
set
aside
the
flannels
and
coloured
articles,
as
they
must
not
be
washed
in
this
way.
They
may
be
washed
in
the
usual
way
while
the
others
are
boiling.
The
night
before,
the
collars
and
wristbands
of
shirts,
the
feet
of
stockings,
&c.,
should
be
rubbed
well
with
soap
and
set
to
soak.
In
the
morning
pour
ten
gallons
of
water
into
the
copper,
and
having
strained
the
mixture
of
lime
and
soda
well,
taking
great
care
not
to
disturb
the
settlings,
put
it,
together
with
the
soap,
into
the
water,
and
make
the
whole
boil
before
putting
in
the
clothes.
