How can I make freshly- laundered slip covers fit more smoothly when replaced on furniture? A. Replace the covers wliile they are still slightly damp. They'll smooth out and fit better than if ironed. Only the ruffles and pleats need a bit of touching up. Put a towel between the cover and furniture when you're pressing the edges of a freshly-laundered slip cover. Q. How can I make the slicing of butter or margarine into neat squares much easier? A. Fold the paper in which the butter conies over the blade of a knife, and cut with this. It will make a smooth slier and the butter will not cling or stick to the knife. ©. How can I remove grease stains from suede coats, bags, hats, etc.? A. By sponging them with a cloth dipped in vinegar. When dry, restore the nap of the suede by brushing with a stiffbristled brush. O. How can I remove some stains from my mattress? A. Place the mattress in the sun, then cover the stained area with u thick paste of starrh and cold water. Rub or brush off in an hour or so, or when the paste is dry. If some of the stain remains, repeat. O. Ho\" can I separate egg whites and yolks the "for-sure, no-broken-yolk" way? A. Puncture a small hole at one end of the shell. This releases the white into a collecting bowl, while the yolk stays inside. Then break the shell, New Residents "^Charles and Alice Forthittann .moved into their new home at 208 Holiday Drive on Nov. 19.

How can I repair the seal between our bathtub and the wall, which has crumbled away? A. You can make your own resealer out of white tile cement and water. Mix this until It has reached the consistency of"paste, then apply. Q. How can I prepare my thread for easier and more efficient quilting? A. Immerse an entire spool of your thread in hot paraffin, and let remain about five minutes. This will wax all the thread on the spool, and, since the thread will not then knot, you can make a better job of your quilting. Q. The tips of my youngster's shoes are constantly becoming scuffed and unattractive looking. What can I do about this? A. Shine the shoes Well, then brush several layers of shellac over the tips. Not only will the shoes retain the gloss, but the shellac will protect the leather against careless kicks, scratches, and the like. Q. What's the secret in mixing good plaster for a patching job? A. Be sure to add the plaster to the water. Don't ask why. All I know is you'll have trouble getting a good mix if done the other way around.
