Too much fttarch, clothes not properly rinsed, or dirt on the bottom of your iron will cause this. If it's the bottom that's at fault, rub with a, damp cloth when cool. Polish with a dry cloth. For stubborn cases, use silver polish, or run the iron over a little table salt spread on waxed paper. In the case of some rayons and other synthetic fabrics, too hot an iron will cause sticking. Q. I always have trouble when pinning on or cutting the patterns from slippery fabrics. Do you have any suggestions? A. Try spreading your fabric on a clean rug or carpet, whose nap should hold it still enough for easier work. Q. Should one use hot or cold water when making a mustard plaster? A. N e i t h e r . The w a t e r should be tepid. Q. How can I remedy some of our doors which drag or scrape on the floor? A. Tighten the screws that hold the hinges in place. If they refuse to tighen, fill the screw holes with plastic wood and try again when dry. Of course, if loose hinge-fastenings aren't the answer, you may have to remove the door and plane down the bottom edge. Q. How can I make a brush for velvet? A. By making a. padded cushion of velvet about five inches long and three inches wide, inserting a piece of cardboard to stiffen it, and . then stuffing with cotton. A strip of tape can be sewed on to serve as a handle. Q. Is there anything I can do when some of my youngsters' shoes have become too badly scuffed to take a good polish? A. Try rubbing them with a piece of raw potato, then applying your polish. This usually makes them shine like neW. Q. How can I make a candle fit firmly into a too-largp holder? A. Burn down an old candle stub -- or a half-inch from the bottom of the new one -- in the holder. Next, press the heat-softened bottom of the neiv candle firmly down on the still-burning stub, the candle will then adhere to its new holder-fitting base. Q. My cedar chest seems to have lost most of its former pleasant aroma. Is there any way I can remedy this? A. You can accomplish this very easily, simply by going over the. inside surface lightly with some fine sandpaper. This allows the wood to "breathe" again, and restores its fragrance. Q.

The toes of my youngster's shoes are constantly becoming scuffed and unattractive looking. What can I do about this? A. After shining the shoes well, brush several layers of shellac over the tips. Not only will the leather retain its gloss, but the shellac will protect It against careless kicks, scratches, and the like. Q. How can I improve the appearance of a guilded clock? A. Try rubbing it with a cloth dampened with alcohol or turpentine. Q. Is there a "homemade" glue that will stick glass to glass, leather to metal, or other such unusual combinations? A. Try burning some shellac in a dish to get rid\of the alcohol. The result will be one of the strongest and best allpurpose glues you've" ever used. Q. How can I make wood more durable and weatherproof? A. By covering it with several coats of hot linseed oil varnish. Q. What can I do when ink has been spilled on a rug? A.
