Turkish Towels for Wash Rags

Old Turkish towels are singularly use less things it would seem, but they may be converted into dainty wash rags and useful furniture polishers-the latter with out any preparation or trouble.
 As wash rags the objection has always been raised that the hems were too heavy and too thick, but this may be easily obviated by crocheting a tiny border on them or finishing the raw edges with a buttonhole stitch. It takes no longer to do either of these than it does to hem them, and the wash rag is much more slightly and far more handy.
 The best thread to use for this purpose is white alarming cotton, even when the stitches are as much as a quarter of an inch apart the material will not ravel.

loves her fellow beings finds these good points. Be they great or infinitesimally small, she calls them out. She seems to say: I've are brothers and sisters; what can I do for you?"
 This type of woman has friends every where she goes. People love her and confde in her and want to be with her.
 Why? Simply because she loves her fellow creatures and takes an interest in them
 Human beings live up to our ideas of them largely If you require much of friend the response is usually the forth coming. Tribute is paid to the manhood or the womanhood of every individual, every time belief Is shown in them, and since even the weakest has a spark of bigness in his nature. he cannot but be touched by the belief.

The Love of Humanity.

The human nature lover is a vastly diff ferent person from the student of human nature This is proven by the woman who wins friends everywhere she goes. She takes an interest in everybody from serv- ing maid to the highest social leader in the land and few minutes conversation reveals to her the things in life they are interested in and she at once makes her self interested, too.
 The student of human nature views his fellowman with a quizzical look and con stantly looks for defects, faults and weaknesses The lover of human nature overlooks these things and knows that there is some good trait in every human being if only one is interested enough to find it. And somehow the woman who

Copies of Masterpieces.

The magazines are so filled nowadays with copies of well known paintings that it is well to clip out such as one would care to keep, when casting the magazine aside. These may be mounted on pieces of pasteboard and kept for reference. If these pieces have two holes punched in them, through which fasteners are put, the sheets may be held together, forming a book It is quite remarkable how soon one will have a library of prints which will give pleasure during many an hour.

The Care of Silk Stockings.

Totprevent silk stockings from rail roading," as it is called, when stitches are dropped and long runs appear often making the stockings unfit for further wear, wet the start of the "railroad" with the tip of the finger and the life of the stocking will be saved. The moisture serves to hold the drop stitch, tempo rarily at least and when the stocking is removed the stitch can be caught with a needle and fine alarming silk or the run can be obliterated by crocheting it from end to end with a fine steel hook.
 Another way to prevent runs is to dip the stockings in water and let them be- come thoroughly dampened before ever wearing them. When they are dried they are practically as fresh looking as be- fore their dip and they will not be so ready to drop stitches.

The Sewing of Fur.

When sewing fur after the two edges are sewed together in a flat seam on the wrong side, flatten the seam out very carefully lest the pelt be torn It is good plan to rub the stitches over with one's thimble to help in the flattening process. However, one thing must be remembered: Never put the fur on a hard surface when smoothing the seam or 1t will surely bear tell-tale marks.
