one part OF seed is used for hundred

KEEP OLD SHEETS.
Many Places In the Household Where
They Are Utilized.


They Are Utilized.
There are number Of ways In which
every scrap Of an old sheet may be
utilized II one will give the subject
thought. First, there are very few
housekeepers Ignorant of the fact that
II the sides are sewed together and the
sheet cut through the center 1t VIII be
given n new lease of life. Twilled
sheets. By reason OF their softness, COM
bined with their substantial weave,
make excellent polishing cloths and
good undercovcrs for. ironing boards.
Old cotton sheets make good bags
for inclosing gowns and coats In the
wardrobe, one large sheet being SUI
flcient for two wardrobe bags. An old
sheet will cut up into several slips for
use on the pillows over the ticking. An
other plan is TO take the best parts for
making sheets for cots and cribs, where
there are children, reserving the very
thin portions for use as busters.
A large apron for covering the skirt
to be used for bedmaking can be made
from half a discarded sheet.
Very soft old sheets may be cut In
pieces 40 by 20 and devoted TO baby's
wear.
In the slckroom there is no end to the
possibilities Of an old sheet One-half
laid across the bed under the patient
viii serve as draw sheet Small
pieces may be substituted for hand
kerchief and then burned. In infec-
tlous cases an old sheet may be dipped
In a disinfectant and hung outside the
door Of slckroom.
On sweeping days there Is a need for
old sheets for covering the furniture.
As linen wears well and keeps its color
10 the last thread. many very pretty
pieces Of decorative work may be
evolved from It. An oblong piece,
hemstltched all the way around, then
embroidered. will make cover for
baby's carriage. Small squares set to

make dressing table cover.
Tray cloths and serving cloths of
linen are dainty. and simple hemmlng
