REVERSIBLE RUGS

r
fFroa Mrs. +. A. G., Washington. J
Mrs. J.:J. H.. Washington: You
requested information concerning
reversible rugs made from old
rugs and wool rags. I have just
been using such a rug. It is prac-
|tical but not a thing of beauty. A
year ago we decided to reverse our
rug and I thought it would look
like new but it didn't. In fact, it
looked SO bad we had to take it
to the cleaners. They washed it
and it shrunk both In length and
width and it would not lie nat
any more. My experience with
small rugs Of this type has been
satisfactory. Personally, ] think
they are expensive for what you
get.
(Froni Mrs. r. M. M, FaiffdTJ
I would like to answer the in-
quiry of the reader who is in
terested in learning something
about the rugs that are manufac-
tured out of old cotton and wool.
The one ] have been using the
past is months is the FIRST one +
have had, but I do not feel t"ot'
I would want another one cf ito
kind.
The texture Of the rug is such
that 1t is very hard to keep clean,
even using a vacuum. ! find that
the brush attachment, the one in
tended for use on the floor. is the
best one to use. My rug Is grey
green, plain and shows dirt very
readily. My sister bought q two
tone green in q sort Of tweed ef-
feet thinking it would not show
the dirt as much. but it is just as
bad. In cleaning her rug one day
my sister dislodged o chicken
feather that had been dyed green.
Neither Of us has ever been salts
fed with our rugs and really
couldn't recommend them.
From Mrs. c. E., WGshington.)
I think so well of the reversible
rugs. I've had, several and only
wish I had more old wool and
carpet to send for another which
I need. The nap does not seem
to wear down and I believe they
are all the manufacturers claim,
including price. OF course. there
Is q tax and return freight charge
which startled me.

REMOVING INK.
(FYont Mrs. A. N. A.. WGslsinot0n)
To remove ink stains from 81
ball point pen which have stained
washable material I have used
turpentine, and then soap and
water. On plastic material It'll
might be safer to try turpentine
On a small corner or piece first to
see II it will injure the material.
To avoid rubbing more than the
spot. make a swab Of absorbent
Gotten on a small stick and apply
the turpentine sparingly.

Judge Jones Reports on John Corner Tells Coolidge Lore

White House possessions. she .
came across the ilnmentioned
volume and opened 1t for the
first time. There on the fiy1
leaf written years ago by her
husband was this observation:
IT see nothing in this book
that says how to cure a sucker"
Then Judge Jones recalled the
story about the members Of
Congress who called on PreSi-
dent Coolidge to congratulate
him on his election: While they
were in his ofiice he took out o
key ring with scores Of keys on
it, unlocked q drawer. took out
q box Of cigars. selected the
same number as there were men
present. and handed one cigar
to each man. Then he returned
the box to the drawer and
locked 1t.
After they had lit up, one Of
the men thought he'd be cagey
enough to get another cigar.
"Mr. President" he said, II
have a little girl who is just
crazy about cigar bands and she
would be thrilled II I took her
one from the President Of the
United States"
Whereupon Mr.. Coolidge took
out his keys again. unlocked the
drawer, withdrew the box.
opened it, took out q cigar.
slipped the band of. put the
cigar back and handed the band
to the nonplussed father.

Speaker Sam Raybuin boasted
about his prowess at cooking
chicken for SO long. that his
friends finally took him up on
it. Down at the King and Queen
Rod and Gun Club last fall as
the savory odor Of hush puppies
sizzling on an outdoor grill
fioated out onto the breeze, the
beloved Texas legislator told the
Gladstone Williamses that. he'd
come over some evening and
cook for them. Nobody cooks
chicken the way I do" he said
with q forgiveable display OF
pride in view Of the amount OF
boasting heard on all sides about
the days catch.
And he didn't just cook
chicken. He cooked IA Of them!.
-at the Williamses Saturday
night and it's highly question:
able that there was any left
over. "This is fried chicken,
Texas STYLE" he observed be-
tween quips with the unbe-
levers who came out to the
kitchen to see If the Speaker
was really doing the frying.
In black tie but minus his din
ner jacket, he had on q full
length apron with a Gay Nine-
ties corset painted on it and a
large chefs cap labeled "The
Speaker" Brandishing a long
fork with two skillets full Of
deep fat in front Of him, he
took each piece Of chicken and
dipped it into raw egg, having
first gently mixed the yolk and
the white together with his
hands, then he sprinkled
little flour on it and put it in
the hot lard.
Among his constantly chang
ing audience was Justice Tom
Clark who's flying down to
Dallas today to see his first
grandchild. his son Ramsey's
brand new daughter; Chief
Judge Of the y. s. Court Of
Claims Marvin Jones; the ALI
