WILL IT WEAR WELL?

'Will it wear well?' is the question
uppermost in every woman's mind
when she goes to buy a garment or
material for making up into a dress.
There are many factors that affect
the wearing quality of cloth and here
are a few suggestions that will help
you to answer your question for yo r
self.
The way cloth is woven affects it's
endurance. Pushing the nail against
the cloth to see if the weave is
strong will often show unexpected
looseness and weakness. BY holding
the material to the light and pulling
it slightly apart, weakness can gen.
orally be detected. If the yarn is poor,
and the weaving irregular or sleazy,
or long threads have been left stray
Cling on the surface, the fabric will
not stand much strain.
Sometimes figures are woven in such
a way that they shorten the wearing
life of the cloth. For example, in
weaving madras curtains, the filling
thread, which makes the figure, jumps
from one figure to another; after
the material leaves the loom, the
loose threads are clipped off the back,
leaving short pieces of thread which
often wash out or the ends become
rough and fuzzy. Goods that have a
heavy lengthwise cord, and very fine
filing, as some dimities and ginghams,
are apt to split along the heavy thread,
owing to the great difference in the
strength of the threads.
A close twill makes a firm, durable
material, while the loose basket
weave is quite apt to be lacking in
firmness. Fancy weaves in cotton nov
elites, shirtwaist materials, and fancy
mulls often leave loo@e threads which
become soiled easily, and may not be
attractive after washing.
The finishing and dressing used to
give a cloth an attractive appearance
are also factors in it's wearing life.
Some diagonal suitings have a soft
finish that partly obliterates the
weave; this is apt to wear off unless
the pile is very thick and strong.
Mapped goods, If soft and thin, are
liable to wear off. The satin or sateen
makes a very beautiful surface, espe-
cfally when applied to linens or silks,
but it may cover up defects in hidden
threads.
The best grades of material are gen.
orally what they seem to be, but it is
when buying cheap material and nov
elites, where the effect is expected to
be more important than the weave.
that we must be especially vigilant.

HOW TO SAVE
MONEY WHEN
SHOPPING
By MRS. HARLAND H. ALLEN
CHOOSING LAUNDRY TUBS
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
20. 1922. Harland H. AIlenA

Every laundress should, if posi-
pie, have three tubs, as this makes
for the. greatest economy of time.
Where you cannot have stationary
tubs Installed, portable galvanized
iron tubs are excellent to use, as they
give long service, are light to handle
and do not rust. That is, they will
not rust as long as you are careful
that none of the galvanized coating is
worn or scraped off. But galvanized
tubs do not hold the wringer unless
fitted with wooden cleats and clamped
to the washbench Some of the heav-
Ter tubs are provided with an attach
ment for holding the wringer.
Wooden tubs are practically things
of the past, as they are clumsy and
heavy to handle and hard to care for.
They must be kept damp else they will
shrink and leak, and yet water must
not be allowed to stand in them, as
the best of wood will warp and split
under such conditions. The practice
usually is to keep wooden tubs stored
in cellar where moisture is more or
less constant; or even to keep a wet
sponge in the tub to prevent drying.
And then you have to remember that
constant moisture is apt to attract
reaches.
Fiber tubs are very light, easy to
handle and to keep clean, but if you
get a good quality they are more ex-
pensive than the other kinds. Fiber
tubs are made out Of wood pulp, mold
ed into shape and finished with a high
luster and as they are made in one
piece, there is no danger of their leak
ing or falling apart.a
OF course tubs come in many sizes.
The ordinary family laundry tub
should hold from II to Is gallons, as
it will then be large enough to work
without splashing.
The height at which tubs are placed
is most important. The top of the tub
should come just to the end of the hip.
A convenient height for woman five
feet six inches is to place the tubs
so that the bottoms are about %
inches from the floor A good rule
then is to raise the tubs one-half an.
inch from the floor for each additional
inch in your height. of course these
ratios are only approximate, as habit,
length of your arm and whether you
are short or long-waisted are all fac
tors to be considered.
