Evening Republican, Volume 17, Number 148, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 21 June 1913 — Scorched Linen. [ARTICLE]

Scorched Linen.

If, when ironing a shirtwaist or other white garment, a place should become scorched, it is unnecessary to launder the whole garment, according to Woman’s Home Companion. Lay the scorched portion over a deep saucer or cup, and with a teaspoon press the cloth down to the bottom of the dish while you pour in some boiling water. In a few minutes lift from the water, wring in a cloth, and let dry sufficiently to press, after which you can not tell where the garment was scorched.
