RENOVATE THAT OLD TAFFETA SHADE

Can you suggest a way of clean- ing a pleated tafela lamp shade. I do not wish to remove it from the wire.

If you have a bath deep enough to take the shade easily, washing is the most satisfactory method of eleaning it, but make certain Orst of all, that the wire frame is not showing any signs of rust as in water this would spread to the material.

Brush the shade to remove loose dust and then put it into a bath of warm soapy water,

Shake up and down and brush the way of the pleats lightly with a

soft brush. Rinse by shaking in clean cold water. Dry as quickly no possible pressing the pleats firmly with your thumb-nail.

6 Points For

Knitters

Don't forget that pressing, scaming and stitching together are ng import- ant as the actual knitting of a gar- ment.

When you sew the seams lay the pieces flat on top of each other, right aldes facing and overscw.

To make neater scams, If you cast off with the wrong side facing you~~~ cest off knitwise, With the right side facing you-cast off purlwise.

Always Join your wool at the end of a row.

Don't increase at the beginning or the end of a row, but in the second stitch, or the last but one.

Keep your work fresh and clean by putting it away in a special bag. It you're working with white wool, wrap it up in a napkin or a cleari towel.

When you put your knitting away, don't run your needles through your work or the ball, as this often splits the wool.

The Bedroom Beautiful

Some of the new ideas for Interior decoration may truly be described as exquislie.

A lovely scheme, recently con- ceived, consists of 3 bedroom having the furniture and bed-head covered -la ...white....... satin, -quilted in yellow. stitching and trimmed with yellow satin buttons sewn into the padding ot Intervals.

The door is also covered in the padded, quilted sutin, so that the room is kept quite silent.

If such a scheme is not practical for your use, then navy blúc satin, with white buttons and stitching is an alternative idea.

Children's Colds

A Wise Precaution.

When a child shows signs of n cold, starts sneezing, has red eyes, and a running nose, prompt allen- tion should be given, for neglect of s cold may lead to serious conse- quences. The first step in curing o cold is to remove all congestion of the system, and for infants and young children there is no beller way of doing this than by giving a dose of Baby's Own Tablets.

Guaranteed pure and entirely free from narcoties and other harmful drugs, the Tablets reduce the child's feverishness (if any), toothe the child's fretfulness, Felieve his dis- comfort and assist speedy recovery.

Also for Infantile indigestion, con- stipation, and, colic, Baby's Own Tablets are equally helpful. They check diarrhoea, sweeten the stomach, quiet the nerves, expel worms, and quickly ease the pains of teething. Chemists everywhere sell the reliable health safe-guard for the young.
