·LINEN LORE.
Her linen cupboard, used a couple of generations ago, to be the pride of every good housewife whatever her estate. Her dowry took the form of lanen, much or less accord- ing to the wealth of her parents, but the bride who came to her hus band without any linen at all was almost unknown... Even in those days, however, when the home was indeed woman's sphere, and she was willing to spend a large part of ber day over the most exquisite darns and patches, the frousseau linen was not expected to last a life time, and white siles" were an important event in her life. Linen, like many other things, has a longer life if not in regular use. The shees which is washed once a week wears out far sooner than that which has |been washed as many times but over a longer period, but on the other hand, no linen should be stored for a long time without oe- casional use.
