WASHING SWANS DOWN FUR.
Delicate Fabric Requires SkiIIful and
Careful Handling,

This fur is very delicate and soft
and forms pretty trimming for chill
lren's clothing, but being white, it
soon becomes soiled and unless some
method could be adopted to restore
its appearance it would be rather an
expensive trimming
Washing is one of the cheapest and
simplest methods for cleaning this fur
and almost restores its new appear
ance
AS the fur is very fine and easily
destroyed, all rubbing, and even
squeezing to any extent, must be
avoided, as either would break off the
down.
1t should instead be washed by
shaking in good soap lather, and,
when clean, should be Tinsed in warm
water and pressed to remove the mois-
ture
1t must then be shaken to separate
the down and hung in front of the
fire to dry. 1t ought to be occasional
ly shaken during the drying process.

In CLEANING with Naphtha.

To remove the very disagreeable
odor of naphtha from gloves. or in
fact from any waist or gown that has
been returned from the cleaners. the
article should be placed as close as
possible to a steam heater or directly
upon the radiator if possible The
steam heat thoroughly dries out what
ever of the fluid may have remained
in the material, and does so without
the danger of explosion which makes
it impossible to dry a naphtha-cleaned
garment anywhere near an ordinary
stove or fire
After naphtha-CleaRing gloves, laces,
ribbons, etc, at home, they may be
placed directly upon a steam radiator,
and will be found to dry in half the
time ordinarily required and the odor
will entirely disappear in less than an
hours time.

ECONOMY IN CUTTING BREAD.
European Idea American Housewives
Would Do Well to Copy.

France and Italy have the reputa-
tion Of being the least expensive coun-
tries in which to live, and this is ow-
ing not only to the price OF food
stuffs, but also to the extreme care
with which everything is used,
An example of this studied econ
omy, which, in time, becomes second
nature, is their use of bread In both
countries mentioned only enough
bread is cut to provide the family with
one piece each. Should any one else
wish for bread, two pieces are cut
and this process is repeated until the
meal is over
By this method there is no bread
left cut from the loaf to dry in the
box, and one baking lasts four full
days, not two days and a half
Perhaps it sounds too economical;
perhaps the generous hostess might
think that it was not true American
hospitality Indeed, it is the best
treatment for guests and family alike,
for bread that stands but q short
time in the dish is sure to be just. a
little dry, while bread Just cut is
sweet and fresh.

For one who wishes something esps-

than one made of sheerest handker-
chief linen. Cut about the size of the
average centerpiece. it has an elabor-
ate scallop, but the upper part is hol-
lowed out to fit the waist of the wear
er and long sash ends hold it in place.
The tiny pockets are embroidered
with a spray of ragsed-robins with a
touch OF dainty green. while several
large designs of the same are strewn
along the lower edge.

CHEESE IN SALAD

An unusually s-appy salad calls for
a small cucumber a boiled beet, a
couple of anchoyies. two hard boiled
eggs, a boiled potato. "a big olives
and a head of lettuce. Make the
French dressing and incorporate the
anchovies which have been mashed to
a paste, with it. Line the salad bowl
with the lettuce and put the various
ingredients, all cut into dice, into it,
Season with salt and paprika, sprinkle
lightly with sherTy-about a quarter
of a cupful-and turn the dressing
over. Toss all together before serv-
ing.
Even in preparing common salads
especial care in cooking the meat and
vegetables pays.
Fish and meat used in salad should
always be cold, and should be allowed
to stand for a time covered with oil
and vinegar, which should be drained
on before the salad dressing is
turned on.
To blanch vegetables for a salad cut
them into the shapes and sizes re-
quired and boil each separately for
three or four minutes. Then drain,
turn into cold water and boil in salted
water until tender.

NOVEL Use FoR WOODEN E-u5.
Made to Darn Stockings On, They Fin
ally Served as Knobs for Hatpins.

One Of the innumerable things that
the manufacturers of turned-wood
goods make is the darning egg, for uSe
as an aid in darning stockings.
These eggs are commonly provided
each with a handle Of the same kind
Of wood, which screws into one end. A
while ago there was received at the
New York office of a turned goods
manufacturing concern an order for a
couple of cases, some thousands in
number, Of darning eggs to be sup
piled without handles and of a size
somewhat smaller than the standard;
and then for some reason this special
lot of eggs was left on the manufac-
turer's hands. But they were not
wasted.
In the course of time there came
in a hatpin manufacturer who wanted
TO leave an order for a few thousand
hatpin knobs. to be made in specified
shape and dimensions. Besides making
regularly a great variety of things the
turned goods makers also turn wood in
any shape that may be required to
order
And then the salesman recalled that
little lot Of undersized handleless
darning eggs, which proved to be ex-
actly what the hatpin wanted and he
took the lot And so finally they came
to be made up, not as darning eggs.

Keen a Lona Needle.

Every housekeeper should have a
mattress needle, and these can be
made easily from the rib of an old
umbrella. Rip of the silk from the
bottom, and then you have the eye.
Snap off at the desired length, the
usual length being about II inches.
Sharpen both ends on a stone, and you
have a good needle.
AS the bed becomes separated or
the strings undone, they are easily
sewed down with linen thread, making
il comfortable and lasting Feather
beds may be tufted in the same way.

Old Stockings.

In a family where there are no chill
dren for whom to refrOnt stockings
the housewife is apt to find an accumu-
lation in the mending basket. Take
several tops, having removed the feet,
and sew together. then fold over and
sew across the bottom as for a bag,
then down the sides, then turn to right
side and sew across the top, and one
has dust cloth that will not scratch
the polished furniture or floors. Be
careful to sew so seams will be on
inside and no ravelings will remain

A New Salad

A new variation on the now familiar
Waldorf salad has been invented,
where the apple is peeled, cOred and
cut in cross slices. One slice is laid
upon a few lettuce leaves on each
plate, and over it is put a layer of bar
le-duc and cream cheese, which has
been put through a potato masher,
while around the whole is arranged a
circle of mayonnaise dressing. A pret-
tier dish can hardly be imagined, and,
by the way, the cheese is never SO
good as it is when used in this way
or beaten up with a little whipped
cream.
