Bed and Bath"-ah, that's

into the bathroom to see what's
on the towel rack is quite per-
MISSILE. In shopping for the So
called Turkish" towel. the points
to consider are many:

demands

The two vital points to note
are absorbency and wear. and
these are entirely determined by
(al the underweave, which is the
backbone of the towel: and (b)
the loops" of the surface pile"
which in turn determine its alb
sorbency. Don't put this infor-
nation aside as too technical.

TimelU Hints for Buying Linens

Some towels have a double
thread" construction. which does
give more absorbency. but not
better wear. Some towels agaia
are woven with loops with a fla
petai-like appearance. not a cur
ly. twisted loop This gives a
more luxurious effect, but in no
wise increases wear.
The most practical sizes IN
bath-towels range around the
% A: the "a as; the "a AZ,
with % X a being the favorite
in popular approval. USUALLY
men like larger towels, such as
the club size in "a As inches.
However. from the economy
point -of-view. looking at week.
ly laundry bill. many a woman
finds that the smaller sizes of
20x40. or 1sx36, help reduce
laundry bills on poundage rates,
or are specially convenient where
there are small children. All
Turkish towels shrink in the first
few launderings. and become
closer, tighter, and feel firmer
in the hand.
Since so many home-makers
who value their time for club
and organization purposes prac-
tice sending the washing out, it
is worth listening to these few
inner tips from an old laundry
hand:
The most important laundry
consideration with these towels
is the way they are dried, which
affects their absorbency. Do
not let the commercial laundry
mangle such towels. as this prac-
tice presses down the loops and
lessons their absorbency. Re-
quest the laundry to 'fluff-dry'
them, or 'tumble-dry' the towels.
These are standard laundry pro-
cesses, and cost no more"

off fragrance for a number OF
years. If you make one you will
make several. Put in the dresser

By Mrs. Christine Frederick,
The Distinguished Authority Household Efficiency.

II you really wish to buy value
in Turkish towels for your fam
lily. It's simple and fundamental
to all buying of this kind of
weave or looped pile material
To examine towels under
weave, look at the plain part
where there are no loops. as at
the hem or border This plain
portion should look firm and
closely-wovcn. But If it seems
sleazy. or has weak or broken
threads, il will give" and Of
fers poor wear TO the user.
See that the sewage, or edge.
is sturdy and tape-like, so that,
as the bath-toUel is stretched
across the shoulders after
bath. it will not tend to be pulled
apart lengthwise. Hens should
be well fastened at the end, with
no hanging threads. which in
crease danger Of fraying.
And now for that blotter-like
quality which is the special pre-
rogative of each and every good
bath-towel-the absorbency is de-
termined by the number and the
closeness of the loops whic h
make the soft, messy pile"
When this type Of towel is drawn
across the skin, each cut end of
each individual loop acts like
a miniature sponge to suck up
water. Naturally the more loops,
the more spongy the towel.
But. since each top or surface
loop is woven right out from
the underweave, it is easy to see
that the underweave must first
be close. firm and sturdy, to
support as many top loops as
possible.

Chdnqesin Week
BY the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, Feb. 24.-Grains,
cotton, some livestock and key non-
ferrous metals led an advance in
cash commodity markets this week.
The Associated Press index of IS
weighted wholesale cash staple
prices, with 1925 as 100, as a result
rose to 1918 from 1856 in the pre-
ceding week and 1854 year ago.
Cash wheat, corn and rye all were
marked up at Chicago, principally
on anticipated new cold waves over
the Western grain belt. Some buy
ing of grain, credited to milling
interests, added buoyancy to values
Expanded speculative purchases of
wheat futures also strengthened
cash grain.
Cash cotton moved higher with
wheat as foreign staple values i'm
proved and reports were circulated
the French official buying commits
sion here was seeking ships to speed
up cotton shipments abroad.
Advances in cash cattle and lambs
at Chicago, despite cheaper hogs,
lifted the livestock component of
the COMMODITY index to a new 1910
high.
Cash tin and copper moved up in
the non-ferrous metals division.
Declines in cash rubber and steel
scrap carried the industrial ma
terials component of the index, how
ever, to new 1910 low.
Among textiles, cash wool was a
little more expensive, but silk was
cheaper.
