when you roll out the bit of leftover pie crust pare a couple of speckled apples slice them crumple up the crust and pop two delicious turnovers into the oven registering the thought that you have made something tasty- out of what might have been thrown away the fichu apron i a recipe too that can be varied to suit thengredients at hand crisp blue chambray with a fichu of muedotted white swiss is a possibility that comes to my mind checked gingham might be used with a starched voile batiste or lawn fichu or cut crossbarred dishtoweling for a fichu using the band that conies off at the side for trimming on a white lawn apron and if your sewing bag disgorges an odd length of voile thats yellow beyond using put on the tint pot and have a new blouse it will take the little vanities everyone

in cold water some rub baking soda on the chicken as it has a tendency to clean easier after dressing the chicken i always put it into cold water at once and add just a little salt as it helps to draw

rounded and left raw or scallop it and finish it with an edging for the neck open ing just cut a circle in the centre of course you must tint the lace exactly a vanity but to my way of thinking a double polish first a pink cream then a high polish powder a whisk or two of the buffer and you have a polish that is lasting and waterproof if time is valuable plan your mani curing after you have had your hands in water then the cuticle is thor- j oughly softened and responds rapidly i to treatment or you may ase a newj preparation that actually melts the cuticle and reduces manicuring to a

right off you have the start of a smart summer street dress if you invest your spare time for a couple of days in stitching a pattern on it you can use a band design transfer pattern stamping the band crosswise of the goods and parallel to give an allover effect in stitching on your machine place the paper under tho goods so it wont pucker and use coarse sewing cotton then there are slipper frills to use up your scraps of silk some are just- straight strips of material six inches folded through the centre lengthwise and gathered to form a hoop the centre is finished with a buckle this forms a trim as the shops call it that can be tacked to the front cf a plain pump getting rid of them is quite a worth while indulgence rub a little lard on them let it stay for a few min utes then wipe it
