The ideal way of using blotting pa
per is TO have two or three loose
sheets of thickish white or pink. which
can be thrown away, used or stolen
with impunity. 1t is useful to he able
TO blot from above and the singleness
of the sheet enables this to be done
most efficaciously. Also it necessi.
tates no conscientious scruples as to
waste. and enables the writer to write
straight ahead with comfort instead
OF lodging about his pages to avoid
the pains of blotting.

A pattern is sold which shows how
rolling lingerie collar may be cut
from a 13-inch handkerchief. and as
almost everyone has a choice hand
kerchief or two stored away some
place, one Of these patterns could be
bought to make the heirloom useful.
The work of making such a collar is
very simple. as. naturally. the out
side edges of the handkerchief form
the outside edges of the collar. Wires
can be neatly fastened into these
handkerchief collars so that they may
be rolled in any desired way.
