STUFFING HASSOCKS
MRS. II. E. R., ArlingtonJ

For J. P. L.. Hyattsville, in
answer to the question Of
stuffing hassocks. We have
stuffed three leather baSSocks
with excelsior. However, to OBJ
tain the necessary f1rmness,
you must re-Stuff several times
over period of a year or two
according to how much the
excelsior compacts.
We have had our hassocks
two years and just a few
months ago. we, added more
excelsior for the fourth time.
Pack the dry excelsior as
tightly as possible. distributing
it evenly. 1t is a tiresome and
sticky job and ! would rec
ommend wearing gloves and
long sleeves. Be sure to put a
clean paper (not newspaper,
for newsprint will rub off on
some types of leather) on the
floor to protect the top of the
hassock. There are upholstery
shops which stuff hassocks
but they are a bit expensive
and we prefer the softer effect
of our "do-it-yourself" meth
cd. The professional job some
times looks too stiff.
CENTERPIECE.
mrs. D. NJ. P, Falls Church,
In answer to Mrs. w. B. r.
of Silver Spring. a centerpiece
of bouncing mothballs can be
made as follows: Fill a battery
jar or fish bowl with water.
Add 1920 mothballs, one tea
spoon citric acid and l tea
spoon of baking soda. The
mixture keeps the moth balls
bobbing up and down for some
time. When the bobbing
slackens. add more soda and
citric acid. "a nice Christmas
centerpiece can be made by
fastening a Santa Claus or
snowman candle to the bot
tom of the bowl with modelling
clay or melted tallow. Set the
finished bowl on a few green's.
and prepare to answer your
friends surprised questions.
