Scraps Of Material
DON'T throw away the scraps ot material left over from your sowing for you are sure to be able to u them to advantage.
It is a good plan to keep various Largo dress corflers in your "pleco" drawer, labelling them cretonne, allic, cotton, woollen and so on outside. Then it is an easy matter to keep the pieces ready for use.
Strips of aretoane, for instance, inake gay borders to tired looking plain curtains.
A length of silk will make a useful scari.
to
Strips of any width sixteen eighteen inches long may be joined together, the joins being covered with gay bins binding. These strips will go parallel to the hem of your dress, and plain and pattern material should alterunte, it possible.
When you have sufficient number to muke to length of apron you need. Father it into a band at the top-and hem the lower edge. Such an apron will have an individual look.
Mots. And A Runner
Do you want a new set for your dressing table? Then turn out the "not" carrier and see if you cannot turn these pleegs into mais and a run- ner, daming the edges round. In the right colours for your scheme and lining them to tone.
As for woollen scrups, everyone inows they make good kettle holders, patchwork hot water bottle covers and so on, but they will also make a successful bed cover. All have to do is to cut the pleces into us witle strips as possible, making them of similar width, though the length does not maller. Join them together and roll the long strip up until you are ready to turn it into a bed cover.

PRINC blossoms white and pink, sets me thinking about women's complexions. Time to remove the last traces ot that weatherbeiten look few have escaped and get down to the petal pink below..
Have you a weather line? Red rims appeared round the neck, and little tired lines weft drawn round even young eyes. Thank goodness all these can be banished by a good clean up.
:
{] Give a quarter of an hour or so Each day to beauty drill. A good clean up Arst with cleansing cream, left on for a few minutes. then wiped off with soft tissues. Then tackle those lines.
Massage in some akla food with the Anger tips, rubbing gently in circles across the lines on the neck. Work upwards.on the lines from nose to mouth, or mouth to chin. Don't rub the lines round the eyes, but tap these gently with the Angers.
Here is another, massage hint which mány women don't seem to know," Gentle massage round the face from car to ear, at the edge of the hair line, strengthens the face muscles and discourages that sagging which leads to double chaiti,
Another treatment for slack chin is this. Bit bolt upright. Bit the head and push the chin forward so that tho muscles of the neck sro taut. Bend the fingers, then massago with each
hand alternately fwing the top side of the fingers) from chin to throat. Cream the hands well for this.
Dry skins generally absorb a large part of the cream applied, but at this time of the year most skins are rather "starved," so be generous with tho akin food.____Wipe_off_all cream remaining when the massago la donɛ, then splash your face with astringent lotion or distilled witch hazel.
Dry of the dampness with cotton wool Your face will feel-and look- wonderfully refreshed.
