ERRONEOUS BELIEF ABOUT Lo-

No Reason Why Normally Healthy

SOME REAL LABOR SAVERS
Methods by Which Efficient Work
May Be Done in Comparatively
Short Time.

1t is trying task to cut gowns or
skirts of crepe de chine, silk muslin,
sort silks or any material which has q
tendency to draw or slip on the table,
and II you would greatly obviate tho
difficulty Of cutting such goods, first
cover the table with a felt or heavy
cloth.
In renoyating feather pillows, frst
opep one corner Of the ticking and
pour boiling water in. This renders
the feathers kind OF pulpy, wet mass,
which can be easily handled. Have
ready some soapy water, and take the
feathers out and thoroughly wash
them In this, using more soap II nee
essary. Then thoroughly rinse them
IN several waters and put back into
the washed cover and hang it out in
the hot sun.
With long, clean stick you can
turn them occasionally through the
opened corner. AS the suns heat
drles the feathers they will swell to
NIL the cover and be wonderfully light
and fluffy and perfectly clean without
being scattered at all, which inva-
riably happens when they are handled
dry.
A neat and very satisfactory way to
Keep patterns Is to file them away in
