To Launder Linen Collars.

The following method will make eoHars-look as well and wear as well as if done by a* steam laundry. Add one-fourth of a teaspoonful of borax to two tablespoonfuls of cold starch and stir into a scant quart of warm water. Dip the collars in this mixture, saturating thoroughly, then wring dry and roll them in a clean white cloth for ten minutes. Stretch them on the Ironing board, rub them very hard with a clean, damp cloth, so that no starch cap adhere to them and iron them with fairly hot irons. If you want to polish them dampen the right side with a clean, white cloth and warm water and iron over it with the blunt end of the polishing iron.*
