STOCKINGS.
Silk stockings should bo washed in warm water, but do not let it be too hot, and if soft water can be obtained, it is better for them. Do not rub the soap into the stockings, but make a lather, and let them soak for an hour, rinse them in cold water quickly, and wring them out rolled in a cloth, pull them into shape, and pass a cool iron over them. If the stockings are of a colour whioh may run, put a little ox- gall into the washing water, and they will remain as good a colour as ever.
