SELECTION OF TURKISH
TOWELS

By looking at the smooth, plain bor-
,;sr at the end of Turkish towel, you
can get q better idea of It's quality
than in any other way. The finer and
more closely woven this border Is, the
better your towel.
Then examine the loops. A long,
loose loop will pull out much quicker
than one more tightly woven. The
best towelng Is made of good yarn,
two or more threads are In each loop,
and the ground is substantial Sew
eral alternating threads hold the loops
In place, consequently they do not
readily pull out. The poorer quality
Of towels have an altogether less sub
stantial weave, and you can easily OBJ
serve this at the ends where there are
no loops.
Then, too, the closely woven, short
looped towels also feel much softer
and are pleasanter to use than the
loosely woven ones. These surface
loops hold the air and help In drying
the body, while smoothly woven
towel would be much less effective.
No doubt the majority of people pre-
fer the softer bath towels, though for
men and women who delight In the
cold shower and the brisk rundown,
there are the coarser towels that pro-
duce more friction. The Turkish
towels used in the majority Of bath
rooms are frankly all cotton; though
many linen Turkish towels are sold.
In order to meet the demand for a
cheap towel. manufacturers some
times use too great haste and careless
methods In the bleaching process, and
as a result the cotton in the towel
becomes overbleached and Is greatly
weakened. You can generally tell
when a towel has been weakened in
the bleaching. by stretching the ma
teriaI tightly across the fingers, and
noting whether the threads give way
and spread apart too readily. Linen
towels are less likely to be affected
by too strong bleaching than cotton.
And II Is because c)tton does become
overbleached so easily that you must
use special care with Turkish towels
In the laundry.
Newer kinds Of bath towels are
made Of porous material, the air being
factor in drying. These resemble
knitting, with the open meshes the
same size. The drying quality Of
these towels is good. but soiled spote
are hard to eradicate.
Toweling may be purchased by the
yard. but as this requires the house
wtfe's time to scallop or hem the ends,
II is seldom an economy.

HOW TO SAVE
MONEY WHEN
SHOPPING
By MRS. HARLAND H. ALLEN
SHOPPING FOR A SPOOL OF
THREAD
10. ls22. Hariand u Allen. /,

Some housewives think they are be
Ing economical when they buy cheap
sewing cotton, but the time actuall!
lost in using rotten or inferior thread
through breaking, and it's poor wear
turns what In the beginning may look
like small economy into real ex-
pense.
The best sewing cotton to buy Is
soft-nnished, round, slX-cord thread.
BY six-cord thread we mean that
two yarns or phys are twisted together,
and then three of these are twisted
In the opposite direction.
The quality of thread depends upon
the length Of the cotton fibers used
In making it. The best thread Is
made out Of high-grade Sea Island
or Egyptian cotton, but low-grade cot
ton is used In making up the cheaper
qualities, and bastlng threads.
But 1t is not so much the kind Of
cotton used, as 1t Is correct spinning
and freedom from knots and slugs,
that guarantees the housewife against
that worst possible annoyance
Ing Of her thread while sewing.
Some women prefer always to buy
a waXed thread because II kinks so
little. But 1t is just as well to know
that when the finish of such threads
Is washed away in the laundry, they
are really weaker than the ordinary
soft-fnished cottons.
You buy the different sizes Of
thread by number. The higher the
number, the finer the thread. Spools
of black and white cotton are put up
In 81 sizes-from Nos. to 200. Up to
100 the thread is six-cord, but above
that. II is usually three-cord.
A shopper Is often disappointed to
find that she cannot get just the num-
Der of thread that she asks for. AS
a matter of fact, between the Nos. 100
and 200 there are six numbers, but
often only three or four different sizes
SO II you ask for No. 120 and cannot
find 1t, but can get No. 130. the
chances are that the size of the
thread will be about the same.
In buying, always notice the number
Of yards printed on the spool label.
as Well as the quality of the thread
Remember that a very slight variation
In the shape of the spool may make
considerable difference In the amount
Of thread you get for your money.

Growing Demand for Pulvcrized
Goal

Coal operators, who are noting
| with interest the growing demand
! for finer and finer coal. are wonder
| ing Ii the practice will advance so
| far that mining officials will be in
| terested more in getting fine coal
| than in procuring lump, according
| to Concrete of Detroit. Should such
a situation come about the whole
process of mining coal would prob
| ably be revolutionized, as well as the
methods of transportation, and
| there isea possibility that type of
! tank car would be developed to car
~ pulverized coal.
Pulverized coal has been used by
| the cement industry for about TWEEN
ty-fiVe years. as it was adopted as
fuel not long after the introduction
of the rotary kiln in which the raw
materials for cement manufacture
are burned 1t is estimated that over
5.S00,O00 tons of pulverized coal
were burned at the cement plants
of this country last year. The coal
is generally ground so fine that 50
per cent of given quantity will pass
through a sieve having 10000 holes
to the square inch or sieve thatfs
finer than a silk handkerchief. Ce-
ment mill practice has determined
the fact that fine grinding trends to
shorten the fame and make it hot
ter and as temperatures of between
$500 and 5000 degrees Fahrenheit
are required In the kilns, finely pull
verified coal has been found to work
best.
Approximately 200 pounds Of coal
are burned at cement mills for every
barrel OF cement produced, about
three fifths Of the coal being pulver-
ICED for kiln burning. The coal dust
Is blown into the kiln through a pipe
In one end and igpites with a roar,
like a gigantic blow-torch. At the
present time the cement industry Is
the fourth largest manufacturing
consumer Of coal in the country. and
the largest consumer of pulyerized
coal.
