THE CARE or LINENS

Every housewife delights in having
nice linens for her table. and those of
heavy damask are cheaper in the end,
as they wear longer. and look infinitely
better than the lightweight linens. The
thinner cloths can be starched ever SO
little, thereby giving the appearance OF
heavier weight This must be done
carefully; for stif1y starched able
cloth is unsightly. to say the least.
In buying table linen, it is well to re-
member that check pattern in plain

better bargain than g. floral or curved

Table linen should be mended accord
ing TO the weave OF the cloth The
strips left over after evening off the
cloth should be laid away for this pur-
pose, since the threads rayeled from
these strips are the very thing for
strengthening weak places in old table
cloths. When they have gone beyond
this remedy, they can be cut up into
tray cloths, '-arver's cloths fruit nap

NOVEL TIES FOR DRESSING
TABLES USED IN SUMMER

An up-to-date girl changes the toilet
articles on her dressing table for the
summer season to match the fittings in
her bedroom, and she invariably chooses
white ceiluloid or ivory to replace the
silver, ebony or mahogany pieces used
during the rest of the year. well
appointed dressing table with all the
brushes and powder boxes in white
makes one of the most attractive and at
the same time the most mysterious
pieces of furniture in womans bou-
doir.
Besides the regulation comb. brush
and mirror in the newest designs there
is a clothes brush made of fine pig
bristles, Z similar hat brush in horse
hair and a little whisk broom of very
fine long white horse hair for busting
ribbons and veiyets and for cleaning
the dust from the petals of silk and
velvet flowers. revolving brush with
white handle is in high favor with
the summer girl just now because with
The pointed end of stiff white bristles
she can brush out the dust that collects
IN the smallest folds of chiffon. A fiat
brush with single row of stout bristles
used on velvet loops and ruchings make
them look like new
Besides 4 white handled tooth brush.

An average young woman who dresses

buying the combs and find them most

These brushes and combs are easily

ond installment on the amount of cotton ginned from this years growth to Septem- Der 25, showed a smaller number of bales than generally expected, 2,S5S,031 bales, and while there was no comparative statement of the corresponding date last year to compare with, the amount report ed ginned was considered very bullish.
 Owing to the early maturity of the crop caused by premature opening, and because of the movement during the month of September being So heavy, there was some apprehension lest the census re- port of today be favorable to shorts. In advance of the census ginners' report the National Ginners' association pub lished their initial and valuable statement on cotton ginned to September 25, and made the startling report to the effect that 2s per cent less cotton had been ginned to date named, than was ginned last year and that they estimated the condition of the crop to be S4 per cent worse than one year ago. It Is from the members of the above association that the government agents receive their infor- nation, yet the report of the association was not taken seriously until the census figures were published
