Yet to Pat, as she had swum steadily

something to play with.
Merely to cease swimming, let the sea
engulf her and settle-oh, everything
It would be so easy and perhaps

The sun had passed the meridian
when, finally, her hard-driven muscles

was but dim and distant line.
"Gosh!" gasped Pat, incredulous.
In that second all thoughts of death
were wiped away.
II can make it, she told herself
fighting off the treacherous panic that
seeped through her. IF take it easy
and-and don't lose my nerve"
So, setting her teeth, she turned
shoreward. But her stroke had los'
power now, and she had reckoned with

of grim effort Pat faced the truth. She

How to Clean
Feather Pillows

One Of the problems confronting
FL Centre housewives as they make
ready for me summer is the proper
cleaning Of the pillows. The Unit
ed States Department Of Agricu!-
turc considers that the most SatIs-
factory method is to transfer the
feathers to a muslin bag TWO or
three times the size Of the ticking
This may be done easily by sewing
the edges of the openings of the
ticking and bag together and shak-
ing the feathers from one to the
other.
The feathers aud the ticking are
washed separately. To wash the
feathers, after sewing them in the
muslin bag, scrub them in a weak
solution Of washing soda, using Il
good suds. If necessary this Is re
peatcd in a second suds. Rinse in
two or three lukewarm rinses.
If an extractor type Of washing
machine is available, extract as
much moisture as possible and then

sun. If one has no machine of this
type. squeeze ont as much of the cX-
cess water rs possible and dry in
the same waF. Beat from time to
time during the process.
After washing the ticking, starch
it on the inside with a very stiff
starch mixture, applied with Il
sponge This closes the pore, Of
the material and prevents the fea-
thors from working their way
through The ticking is then dried
and rcfiIlcd.
The pillows themselves may be
washed without removing the teath-
ers, in much the same way as the
feathers are washed when transfer

above. y slip cover between the
ticking and the pillow ease viii pre-.
vent tie ticking from becoming
soilcd easily and do away with un-
necessary washing If the slip. Slip
