APRON PROTECTOR.

When one Is washing dishes the water
is apt to splash upon the nicely starched
and laundcIcd aprons that We have put
on, perhaps. but a short while ago. II
is much easier to wash and iron a little
tea towel protector than to laundcr a
large gingham apron. and the towel pro-
tector is easily made. Take a piece OF
toweling about thTee-quarters of a yard
long and sew tape strings to each OF the
corners of one of its narrow ends. When
doing the dishes. slip this on over the reg
ular kitchen apron. II may be doubled.
il preferred. but the one thickness is
usually sufficient. When the towel-spron
becomes soiled IT can he washed out with
the other tea towels ard either straight
ened out well before drying and left TO
dry, so that IL will look at least partially
ironed, or rubbed of with an iron. As
no starch is required in the towel-apron.
IL is quite a simple matter to do the
apron up.
Some housewives use a piece of stock
ing in this fashion, or pieces Of white
oilcloth, but the towel is neatest Of the
three. An extra long piece OF towel can
be used and the upper part OF II acts
as q bib. Attach the tapes at~the waist
line for tying behind the back. and put
a long loop, made OF three-quarters of a
I'd Of tape, at the upper end. TO slip
about the neck and hold up the bib.

A NEW QUILTING.

The other day an importer showed in
his shop window a taffeta gown trimmed
with a finish OF picot quilting that took
the onlooker back to grandmother s
young days with a rush. You've seen
that same trimming in old-fashioned pic
lures The quilting in this instance was
not more than an inch and a quarter
wide altogether. being double edged and
box pleated, and stitched down the CEN
ter to hold the pleats in place and fasten
the trimming to the gown all at the same
time. The picot edge is quite easy to
make by hand. 1t is not necessary for
quilting to be on the bias. The picoted
quilting is cut on the straight of the
goods. First. however, a large piece Of
the six is taken and the threads are
drawn along it as though for hemstitch-
ing. These drawn threads may cover the
space Of a quarter or an eighth of an
inch. The spaces thus drawn are hem
stitched firmly and tightly, so that the
threads will not slip, on both sides, max
ing a double hemstitching. When all the
drawn spaces are so stitched. the hem
stitching is cut down the exact center,
thus separating the silk strips, and fur
nishing each with picot edge.
The cut strips are then Joined together
by tiny turned-in seams, and the silk Is
ready for box pleating and fastened to
the gown.
The Washington herald., 1914-04-18
MAKING A PIC0T EDGE.

When making a silk gown it is a pret-
ty fashion to have the girdle finished
OF top and bottom with a picot edge.
This edge is easily made, If one has the
patience to pull threads. for one kind of
picot edge is nothing more than hem
stitching cut in half. Before cutting the
the girdle out outline the width Of il, in
the piece from which it is to be cut, by
pulling threads as though for hemstitch-
ing Have the edge double hemstitChed.
When cut down the exact center of each
row, and edge of picoting will be found
upon each strip of silk. These strips
may then be Joined together at the ends
and a piece long enough for the girdle
obtained. The outer rows of pulled
threads in the piece of silk, before the
girdle is cut, need only be hemstitched
on the one side, for the edge which is
cut of is not used in making the Eirdle
unless, OF course, one wishes to use these
narrower pieces for a trimming of the
bodice. In that case the hemstitching
should be double. Needless TO say, each
stitch should be taken firmly and care
fully, so that there will be no danger of
its slipping of after the rows of hem
stitching have been cut in half. The
shops which do accordion pleating will
do hemstitichng by the yard, il re-
quested.

THOUsAND-FLOWER
CENTERPIECE

There isn't a housewife who doesn't
long for drawers and drawers Of hand
worked linen for her house. and yet there
are some of US who have so little time
for embroidery that our linen drawer
boasts very few pieces. The question.
then, is to find quickly worked but effect
i've designs. so that when we have a few
make the most of them. Thousand
flower embroidery sounds frightfully
elaborate, but it is simple to the last
degree. and can be worked up in a few
hours, with the exception. of course, of
the buttonholed edging of the center
piece. which always takes more or less
time
thousand-hower design is one that
resembles a tiny sun. and looks not un-
like daisy. You have seen such CEN
terpieces. to be sure. Each petal is COM
posed of one stitch. 1t is a simple
straight, single thread radiating from the
center of the flower to the end Of the
flower They should be worked with
heavy mercerized or rope silk Some
times. upon other backgrounds than the
conventional linen. this thousand flower
is worked in coored worsted with great
effect Such a centerpiece. with a wreaun
or row of these flowers about the entire
edge, can be most beautifully made up Of
pastel shades. The flowers can also be
made up in white. but the stitch is sc
simple that a color is needed to bring
the work out The tiny, spike-like leaves
OF the thousand flower are worked with
the same stitch as the thousand flower.
The center of the flower is usually worked
in French knots, either close together or
scattered.
1t is surprising how many useful Ind
beautiful articles can be made from tie
thousand-flower design-bureau scarfs,
buffet covers, centerpieces, tray cloths,
any number OF beautiful things. This
simple stitch can be used in colOrs for
the dining-room, where a more elaborate
stitch could not.

A NEW GIRDLE.

One of the very new high girdles is pret-
ty, and easy to make besides. The girdle
can be in two colors, as those ultra
you would be more conservative. The
width of the girdle, too, depends upon
your own taste. II is to he a crushed gir-
die. and We will presume that IL is to be
made of a dull silk. messalines, and such
shiny sa7aces being rather back num-
bers.' just at present. Cut two bias
strips of silk. each sufficiently long to
go entirely about the waist, both of one
color, or each a contrasting color to the
other. Seam the two pieces OF silk to-
gether. making one long strip. and hem
down the raw edges. II wide ribbon is
used. there WILL OF course. be no neces-
sity for turning in the selvedge edges.
Then gather each narrow end with a
drawing thread. and join these ends 10
braid frogs to which are attached loops.
Then put two large buttons, braided or
silk covered, in the exact center OF the
girdle, one under the other, about two
inches apart The girdle Is now ready
to wear. Place the center OF the girdle at
the center front Of the waist. wrap both
ends about the waist, crossing them IN
the back. and bring the ends to the front.
there to fasten the loops to the two but
wouldn't want. The girdle may also be
made in velvet, and fancy or velvet-cov-
cred buttons used. Either braid or frogs
and loops made from the velvet may be
used.

THE RIGHT WAY
TO COOK RHUBARB

Thousands Of cooks and housewives are
in the dark as to the proper method of
preparing and cooking that much beloved
vegetable. rhubarb, which comes so near
being a fruit
Our mothers usually pulled the stalks,
cut off the leaves, and took a knife and
stripped of the skin in long. narrow
strips before the remaining portion Of
the stems was cut into short pieces for
cooking.
The proper way is to remove the leaves,
and an inch or more of the stalk next to
the leaf. and then thoroughly wash and
remove all that slippery matter that is
on the end next to the root.
II there are any rusty spots. or worm
holes, those should he cut out. but all
the rest of the skin should be left on the
stalk, and the whole thing cut into short
sections and cooked with the skin re-
naming.
The highly colored skin gives the
cooked product a much nicer appearance.
and better still, there is a flavor derived
from the skin that cannot be secured in
any other way.
Physicians say that rhubarb cooked or
baked in pies or puddings is much more
healthful II the skin is left on and
cooked with the center of the stalks.
Another important fact not generally
known about rhubarb is that II is not
spoiled when II willis o. withers a bit in
lying about the market or the kitchen.
The fact is when rhubarb Is somewhat
wilted and looks as II it were rather stale,
it IS nearer right for making pies than
when 1t is just freshly pulleds Some ex-
perienced cooks will let rhubarb lie about
for two or three days before they use 1t.
The reason for this is the plant is to
great part water When prepared for
food II is very juicy. and when baked
in pies the most OF the pies burst and
allow the surplus juice to run out in the
pan In which they are baked. making an
unpleasant muss, and causing the pie to
be ruined. so far as appearance is con-
cerned.
