I cut away the ragged parts, and from the rest shape square or oblong cloths. I fold them once, usually; but if the pieces are worn thin, they arc folded twice, making four thicknesses. The raw edges are turned in and a few hasting stitches hold them in place for the machine. With a long stitch and rather loose tension I run around tho edges and also stitch diagonally from corner to corner. The stitching crosses in the middle and keeps the cloth firm for the hand when in use. These cloths are convenient and last a long time. Several can be made in a few minutes. If old towels are saved until a largp number have accumulated, ex- cellent rugs may be made from them. Most of the worn towels are still good along the edffes and ends. I cut from these Ktrips about an inch and a half wide and »f<M them together, lapping ' end over end as for ordinary carpet rags.
