Download or read book Laundry written by Cheryl Mendelson and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2009-11-24 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For Cheryl Mendelson, laundering is the best part of housekeeping. It’s full of physical pleasures—the look of favorite clothes restored to freshness and beauty, the tactile satisfaction of crisp linens in beautifully folded stacks. Good laundering preserves things you love and protects your pocketbook. It doesn’t take much time or effort. What it takes is knowledge, and Laundry is the comprehensive, entertaining, and inspiring book on the art of laundering. Culled from the bestselling Home Comforts, with revised and updated information and a new introduction, Laundry is an indispensable guide to caring for all the cloth in one’s home: from kitchen rags to bedding, hand-washables, and baby clothes to vintage linens. Mendelson offers detailed guidance on when to disregard labels, removing stains, making environmentally informed choices, sewing, and storing clothing and fabrics. A much-needed antidote to the standard-issue how-to manual, Laundry celebrates the satisfactions of ironing, folding, and caring for clothes and linens. Both pragmatic and eloquent, Mendelson provides beginning and veteran homemakers with a seamless combination of reliable instruction, time-tested advice, and fascinating personal narrative. As a farm girl in Pennsylvania, Mendelson—who is a philosopher, lawyer, and professor, as well as a homemaker, wife, and mother—received a classic domestic education from her grandmothers, aunts, and mother. Laundry combines the best of the traditional lore they taught her with the latest in technical and scientific information. Writing with infectious love and respect for her subject, Mendelson is sure to instill in readers a newfound affection and appreciation for the art of laundering.

Download or read book Effect of Dry Cleaning on Silks written by Moses H. Goldman and published by . This book was released on 1926 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of tin-weighted and unweighted samples of silk after various treatments and exposures to sunlight and storage at standard conditions (of 65 per cent relative humidity at 70 degrees F. temperature) permits the following conclusions: (1) No deterioration results from exposures to standard atmospheric conditions over a period of two and one-half months even when acid or alkaline perspirations are applied. (2) Sunlight exposure causes a marked deterioration in both unweighted (but dyed) and tin-weighted silks, the loss in strength in 100 hours exposure amounting to about 25 per cent for unweighted and about 50 to 75 per cent for weighted silks. (3) Acid and alkaline perspiration treatments increase the deterioration when sunlight exposures are given, so that the loss in strength in 100 hours' exposure is about 35 per cent for unweighted and about 65 to 100 per cent for weighted silk. (4) Dry-cleaning solvents in no case caused any appreciable deterioration of the silk fabrics.
