STOCKING THE

LINEN

NOTHING promotes greater house pride than a well-stocked linen cupboard. For the prospec tive bride, choosing her linen is an important pre- liminary, as much depends on a wise, and careful selec tion.

If you are blessed with generous cupboard room, and an elastic allowance, so much the better for you. Remember. too, there is every prospect of finding afternoon tea and towel accessories among your wedding gifts, so leave some of these purchases to the very last..

Hute of your linen depends on regular rotational use and temperature-tuned storage. Be sure to watch your stocks and re- plenish ranks at the first sign of wear. The more items allowed to each set the less they come into uction, so their span is proportionately lengthened,

Linen in reserve allows for over- looking and mending, and this is wise for hard-worked sheets or pillowslips. These Abres need rest and recuperation as much as our Karments do.
