TO CLEAN WHITE VEILS.

Put the veil in a solution of white soap, and let it simmer a quarter

of an hour. Squeeze it in some warm water and soap, till quite clean.

Rinse it from soap, and then in clean cold water, in which is a

drop of liquid blue. Then pour boiling water upon a tea-spoonful of

starch, run the veil through this, and clear it well, by clapping it.

Afterwards pin it out, keeping the edges straight and even.
