is cotton. or adulterated linen, the oil
spot will hardly be transparent at all.
Another Simple Test-Examine the
threads carefully. Cotton is made up
Of short flbers which project from the
surface of the thread and become
fuzzy when the thread Is rubbed be-
tween the fingers; linen thread will
not become fuzzy when rubbed in this
way. Also when broken, a cotton
thread has tufted end. while the
linen f1bers break more unevenly and
leave a more pointed end. A linen
thread is stronger than a cotton
thread.
Water Test-Apply a drop Of water
to the material (get a sample before
purchasing the linen. If possible, to
experiment on). On linen the water
drop. will spread and evaporate quick
ly. while on cotton this takes place
more slowly.
Tearing Test-Tear the sample
across the material. Pure linen is
hard to tear, gives out sharp. shrill
sound when torn. and leaves a smooth
torn edge. Cotton Is easy to tear,
gives out a muff1ed sound, and leaves
a curled edge.
Burning Test-Apply a lighted
match to ends Of the threads: II pure
linen. the burned ends are sharp.
smooth and even, but If cotton they
will resemble a paint brush.
Glycerin Drop Test-Put drop Of
glycerin on q sample: If pure linen. 1t
will form a transparent spot, but II
cotton 1t will not be absorbed at all
will roll up as if it were mercury.

How to Know Pure Linen.

Linen is much more expensive than
cotton, and when linen prices are paid,
linen should be received by the pur-
chaser-not just good imitation of
linen. Every housewife, as the buyer
of household supplies for the family.
should feel it her duty to learn to
know pure linen when she sees it.
Linen was formerly the most i'm
portant vegetable fiber. but of late
years it has been largely replaced
by cotton for household uses. The
linen fiber is long, smooth and lus-
trous when spun into a thread. 1t is
very strong. and has not so many
fuzzy ends as cotton has. Cloth made
from it stays clean longer than cot
ton cloth because of its smoothness.
of its luster. Good linen yarn is
round and twisted; il the yarn is
flat and loosely twisted the material
will not wear as well.
1t is more difficult to choose a me-
um-priced piece Of linen wisely than
grade. because substitutions for vari-
Gus finishes and strong fiber may be
made to lower the price while they
give the same appearance. Linen

Summer Elbows.

Summertime is the hardest time OF
the year for the elbows. We wear
hort-sleeve dresses so the elbows are
exposed, which means that great
deal Of dust and dirt Is grimed into
them and they become dry and sun
burned and rather harsh and ugly in
appearance. They are particularly
bad. of course. at the end of the sum-
mer, at the very time when every one
is trying on fall and winter dresses.
Fortunately the elbows are the easiest
part Of the body to improve in ap-
pearance. If yours have become
rather harsh and brown you can i'm
prove them amazingly in a few weeks
by any one of the following simple
treatments.
Scrub them with hot water and
soap, rinse with hot water, and while
the skin is still warm and moist
which means that the pores will be
open. rub them with a little warm
olive oil. or pour the olive oil into a

Cabbage.

The recent discoveries in regard to
vitamines and the Importance Of vege-
table proteins in the diet have brought
honoteand dignity to the humble cab
bage, especially the raw cabbage, be-
cause it is easily digested and con-
tains all the nutrients. most of which
are carried OF in the water when
cabbage is boiled. Only 10 per cent
ten parts are crude protein. Recent
experiments have demonstrated that
we do not need, indeed, that we can
not get much of our protein from
vegetables, but that the little we do
get from regular and moderate use
Of them is vitality important. Cabbage
protein is small but valuable.
For cabbage relish take two quarts
OF chopped cabbage, four chopped
onions. a teaspoonful each of tu-
meric, allspfce. mustard and celery
salt, three chopped red peppers, two
vinegar and a cupful Of sugar. Bring
vinegar, sugar and spices to a boil.
add chopped vegetables, scald thor
oughly without boiling, and pack
hot in clean Jars.
Another cabbage recipe is for one
pers, pint of onions, a teaspoonful
Of celery seed. two tablespoonfuls OF
salt, q quarter Of a cupful each OF
brown and white mustard, a quart of
cider vinegar, and two and a half
tablespoonfuls Of melted butter, with
seasoning. Soak the cabbage in cold
water for half an hour, drain and dry
between towels. Mix half q table,
spoonful each Of salt and mustard.
three quarters Of a tablespoonful of
sugar, with the egg slightly beaten,
butter and cream in order. Add vine-
gar slowly, cook over boiling water.
stirring constantly until thick, and
strain over the prepared cabbage.
Cool and serve for lunch with crisp
saltine crackers.
