CRYSTAL DECORATED :sa4,sa Z!
LIGHTS ARE POPULAR

A revival in. crystal decorated
lighting fixtures is reported. The
growing popularity OF the early
American manner in things deco
rative has brought back to favor
fixtures pendant with showers OF
sparkling crystals. Outwardly, the
new fixtures are as Colonial as
powdered wigs and satin breeches.
but the new science Of lighting has
adapted them to modern electric
light. ~. st,r ~ ~ t
To. meet. the sudden demand, for
them one manufacturer recently
went to CzechoslovalSia for large
quantities OF the crystals. The keen
Czechoslovakians promptly raised
prices from so to rs per cent.
Owners OF colonial interiors who
plan to follow the pretty vogue and
have their lighting fixtures reflect
the spirit Of their decorative scheme
will do well TO order early and avoid
the rush and the increased prices,

USE Of VACUUM

Here Are Some Valued Tips on
How to ProIong Domes-
tic Weaves. -

Every, woman is credited with an
Unborn knowledge Of dress goods and
clothing. but when 1t comes to floor
coverings she is not so well posted,
as rule. For this reason one of the
largest rug. houses has recently
issued n booklet on the subject How
to Prolong the Life OF Rugs and Car
pets" booklet full Of useful, hints
for the housewife.
The first word OF warning which
II sounds Is this: Rugs should be
kept clean. with a good electric
vacuum cleaner, as the hard grit OF
sand will, IL not removed, injure the
hap 1t goes on to say, do not
beat your rug. Instead use a
vacuum cleaner"
And here are some other points
which are worth noting: ...
Do not sweep Wilton or Axmin-
ster rugs hard at first, as the tufts
are liable to loosen before they are
pressed down by usage. Always
sweep with the nap. FL
Do not pull out any knots or tufts.
Cut them off, even with the surface
Of the rug. The tufts In any domes.
tic rug can be deliberately pulled
out. This is due to nature of the
weave. Turn your rugs around oc.
caslonally. so that the greater part
Of the traffic does not come in one
or two places.
All Wilton and Administer rugs
are "sheered" by the manufacturer
when finished. and consequently
light fluff or loose wool viii sweep
out Of them for aorne tirne Thia is
a feature Of the fabric. not q defect.
Protect your rugs. from bright sun

domestic rugs will fade some.

parently lose color. hut q thorough

days; electric iron, seven days; eiec,
trio sewing machine. three days,

I'm, the past two years she has
been downtown twice, 80 she told
me yesterday. Her life consists of
housework, homework. housework-
nothing else apparently" A woman
who simplifies her own household
duties by the use OF ELECTRICAL alas
was pitying her neighbor.4 -.
The trouble is, she, went on,
that she can't get over the old,
fashioned idea that to keep house
one must work terrifically hard. IL

Her mother had/ always stayed
home and spent every minute IN

idea. She thought II was dreadful
to reduce the difficulty Of the tasks
and go "gallivanting" around away
from home. ~ - ~ Il.
Strange though. II may seem, there
still are people of that state OF mind,
although they are not numerous.

enough to see the value OF labor
saving devices, sometimes are still
unable to shake off the bugbear Of
household drudgery sufficiently 70
place full confidence M the appli-
ances which they have bought. y :
Ever so many housewives whose
electric washing machines should be
doing all the laundry work for the
home, nevertheless feel obliged to
give the clothes a preliminary rub
on the wash-board before trusting
them to the machine. They are OBJ
sessed with the. thought that wash
ing must mean hard work for them.
Success In Big Business. v.
The big man OF business, the sue
cessful executive, Is the man who
can delegate his tasks to others. He
surrounds himself with people, ma
chinery, office equipment which he
can rely upon, and then his work ts

of this organization. Clever house
wives are taking a leaf out OF his
book. They install equipment In the
home and delegate the monotonous
laborious part Of housekeeping to
the appliances, with full confidence
In their ability to do the work.
To plan, to engineer" the tasks
OF the home SO as to gain hours OF
freedom for higher duties Is more
