A
plate
should
be
placed
at
the
bottom
of
the
copper,
to
prevent
the
clothes
from
burning.
Boil
each
lot
of
clothes
from
half
an
hour
to
an
hour,
then
rinse
them
well
in
cold
blue
water.
When
dry
they
will
be
beautifully
white.
The
same
water
will
do
for
three
lots.
Wash
the
finer
things
first.

Washing.
(Supremacy
of
Soapsuds
over
Lime).
To
save
your
linen
and
your
labour,--pour
on
half
a
pound
of
soda
two
quarts
of
boiling
water,
in
an
earthenware
pan;
take
half
a
pound
of
soap,
shred
fine;
put
it
into
a
saucepan
with
two
quarts
of
cold
water;
stand
it
on
a
fire
till
it
boils;
and
when
perfectly
dissolved
and
boiling,
add
it
to
the
former.
Mix
it
well,
and
let
it
stand
till
cold,
when
it
will
have
the
appearance
of
a
strong
jelly.
Let
your
linen
be
soaked
in
water,
the
seams
and
any
other
soiled
part
rubbed
in
the
usual
way,
and
remain
till
the
following
morning.
Get
your
copper
ready,
and
add
to
the
water
about
a
pint
basin
full;
when
lukewarm
put
in
your
linen,
and
allow
it
to
boil
for
twenty
minutes.
Rinse
it
in
the
usual
way,
and
that
is
all
which
is
necessary
to
get
it
clean,
and
to
keep
it
in
good
colour.
Housekeepers
will
find
the
above
receipt
invaluable.
