Old sheets which have passed
the stage of usefulness should be
torn in half, the more solid out
sides Joined together for the center
and the thin parts, once the middle,
trimmed away and rehemmed for
outsides.
If the towels are thin in the
center, the good part may be cut
away and made into wash cloths,
silver polishers or what not; if at
the ends, cut off the split portion
and hem the towels, setting them
apart for occasional use.
In sickness there is nothing SO
comfortable. as little soft, fresh
towels. which may be thrown aside
after once using. The good part
of the discarded tablecloths may
also be used. Indeed, their uses in
the sick room are endless, and in
the case alone of the new baby,
whose swaddling things should be
of the softest material. big hemmed
portions are invaluable for first
diapers and bath and crib sheets.
When it comes to blankets there
are many ways and means of do
ing. them over. If the blanket is
good enough merely take bits from
an older one, patch the holes fand
rehem the ends which, with long
use, split up in ways dangerous to
blanket health. If there are little
holes, ravel out some of the edge
for darning' wool and mend them
with coarse needle
There are other ways of fixing
up old blankets, so that their lives
may be prolonged. One is to dou-
BILE those worn threadbare over and
quilt them for nursery-crib sum-
mer use. These also serve for the
warm bed pieces. which should be
put over all mattresses under the
sheet AS to new blankets, a rib
bon binding of the ends before any
use Of them is an excellent and
simple precaution against the end
splitting which is bound to come
in time.
