Readers Clearing House
COTTON RUGS.

MRS. H. E. w., College Park
In reply to Mrs. r. B. F.,
Washington, who complained
about the lint from her cotton
rug and the trouble she has
vacuuming it: I have three
large rugs of the same make
she describes Gin a very light
green color and have loved
them since the day they ar
rived, although I too was dis
mayed by the linti they shed
during the first six months.
I also have the same tank
type vacuum cleaner Mrs.
r. B. F. owns. Mine is the
latest model; it has a device
which is fitted into the bottom
of the rug-cleaner attachment
and is made especially for
cotton rugs. This model also
has what the manufacturer
calls a rug cleaner" which
picks up dog hair, threads, ETC.,
and is easily controlled by a
foot lever. I find I have abso-
lutely no difficulty cleaning my
rugs, although this may be
due to the fact that we have
hemp rug pads underneath
them, not the foam rubber
type. I would suggest that the
lady call the manufacturer of
her vacuum lcleaner and ask
how she may obtain these in
expensive attachments.
Regarding the lint from
these rugs. This problem was
completely solved for us when
I sent all the rugs to a repu-
table laundry to be washed.
They came back absolutely
beautiful, smelled so clean.
and are now entirely lint free.
My rugs are three years old,
show no signs Of wear any,
where, even in front of doors.
They have been laundered just
the once and show very little
soil. I consider this inexpen-
sive upkeep for our floor COW
.erings. incidentally, we have
twos children who bring their
friends into the house at any
time and a dog who just loves
the grassy-green softness of
the rugs.
Now for a problem I have.
Several years ago I bought a
button-hole attachment for
my sewing machine. It works

ID. E.. j.. W1SItinQton1

In answer to Mrs. C. j. W.,
Takoma Park: II she will call

course-and was very pleased
with the quick results. ] can
now decorate cakes very pro-
fessionally. They also have an
advanced course, which I plan
to take this fall. / understand

Department has these courses

CHRISTMAS CORSAGES
MRS. J. X. r., Washington
For Mrs. r. L. H., Washing
ton-It, is difficult to give di-
rections for making Christmas
corsages, since the variety is
almost infinite and depends on
what material you have. Bas-s
ically, each cone, ball or berry
must have a stem. either nat
ural or wire. Cones may be.
painted or shellaced, green's
tipped with white or gold.
Then these are gathered into
a fiat bouquet--a bit of green.
a brown cone or two, a spray
of red berries, a bright ball.
The stems are twisted with
wire, bound with tape and tied
with ribbon
I have made hundreds of
these, mostly from natural
materials. and will be glad to
show Mrs. T. l.. H. how if she
will write me in care Of RICH.

CLEAN FLOORS?

In. W., IQMp0, FLGj
How can I clean floors that
are very dirty under the legs?
I have tried everything I know
and can't have them sanded.
Also, how do you paint lino-
leum so it won't stick? Deck
paint was recommended but it
doesn't dry properly. I would
like stippled effect.
