Helpful Hints for Harassed Housewives It is an excellent idea to cut blotting paper to fit pantry shelves where dishes and glass are kept to fit under the fancy shelf paper that one uses. It acts as a silencer. * * * Fine china used infrequently should be kept folded between blue tissue paper to keep it from turn- ing yellow. * ® After using gasoline for cleaning purposes filter it through a cham- ois skin and all dirt will be re- moved.

The first requisite for any sort of ironing is a smooth, weH-padded surface. This holds true for the old-fashioned ironing board or the modern ironer. The roll on the ironing machine should be well padded and covered with a smooth muslin cloth stretched perfecuy smooth. Any wrinkles or rough- ness in this cloth will show on the article which is ironed on it. _The old rule that embroidery should be ironed on the wrong side is still good. With an (ironing machine the best plan to use for ironing embroidered 'sets' is to iron the piece on the right side first, and then on the wrong side. This gives a smooth glossy finish to the plain linen as well as bringing out the embroidery. When an iron is used the whole piece is ironed first on the wrong side. The iron or ironer should be moderately hot to permit slow moving and a great amount of pressure, HOW TO TRON LACE Lace pieces are ironed on the wrong side. Gentle stretching to shape the piece in its exact contour is necessary. Linen and lace cumn- bined should have the linen ironed first on the right side and the lace on the wrong side without stretch- ing the edge of the linen. There is a correct way of fold- ing napkins when froning them. Nv matter what size a napkin may he, the first fold should be through the center with the selvage edges to- gether, , This is the way the manu- facturer folded them as they left his looms. The corners of all nap- kins should be absolutely true, Iron damask linen napking on the wrong side first. Then turn and iron on the right side until' perfectly dry. Fold selvages to- gether and iron across from hem to hem. Bring directly above the full length of the selvages and iron on both sides. Now bring hemmed edges together, ironing flat. Fold over again to form a square. If there ig a monogram it should be on top. Small napkins with lace or em- broidered edges are folded with the gelvages together--you can deter- mine the selvage edge of the ma- terial by the way the threads run. They are usually folded then to form a square, and if another fold is needed and the corner is heavily embroidered, a diagonal fold from corner to cornér, making the final shape a triangle, is good. WRAPPING SHOWER GIFTS In presenting shower gifts the wrapping of the package usually receives considerable attention and artistic individual effects are the rule, One of the daintiest wrappings for a gift of lingerie {is of pale pink crepe paper. Florists" lace ribbon is folded along two sides of the box and tied in a large full bow at one corner. A spray of pink rosebuds and delicate foliage tucked into the bow gives a dain- ty touch. .

It started with a terrible itching and burning on my face and then formed water blisters, which scaled over. Scratching seemed to irritate it, but it was the only relief I got. It seemed to bother me more at night and kept me from sleeping. Later it broke out on my arms and disfigured them. "I sent for a free sample of Cuti- cura Soap and Ointment and got good results from it. I purchased more 'and after using one cake of Cuticura Soap and one box of Cuti- cura Ointment I was healed."

A long, narrow box holding a gift of linen might be wrapped in a white dotted lavender pauper; Draw lavender tulle ribbon across middle of parcel and tie In a long flat bow at edge of box to extend the entire length, Another dainty wrapping for a gift of lingerie is a delicate pink and white printed paper, Use a long narrow box and tie with bands of narrow Nile green gauze ribbon, and where these are tied attach a tiny, flat lingerie floral cluster. ¢ Circular boxes and the high square boxes often used in miscel- laneous showers are difficult to treat. A good treatment for these is a soft crepe paper with a stun- ning bow of tulle hibbon on top or tied with narrow gauze pink ribbon and a large crepe paper rose resting on the flat cluster loops and ends on top. Novelty papers galore are being shown in the shops, together with a large assortment of suitable rib- bons, gummed bandings, seals and flowers, so attractively wrapped gifts are not difficult to produce, but it is the personal touch of or- iginality that adds charm to these wrappings, To make an egg garnigh boil an egg hard and separate the white from the yolk.

They will not harm either the bristles or the handle. When wash ing ivory brushes, however, make sure the water is not too hot or it will dis- colour the ivory. The colour can be re- stored to ivory by washing it in a fairly strong solution of peroxide of hydrogen. And ebony hairbrushes should be rubbed with vaseline before the brush is put into water. After washing, dry well and rub olive oil into the wood.
