A little vinegar added to the water wa-ter in which table glasse s are rinsed will make them shine and shine. While doing close work with a flashlight it often becomes neces- " sary to use both hands. So if there is nothing nearby on which to rest the flashlight, a simple expedient -is to insert it in your shirt collar. Store felt hats, well cleaned and aired, covered with paper in a dry place. Dampness may cause mildew. mil-dew. Freshly ironed shirts hung on clothes hangers until time to wear should have plenty of free space between them, especially in warm damp weather. o Decorator's rule on glass curtains: cur-tains: Allow the curtains to reach the sill, to cover the base of the apron of the window or to the floor, just touching.

Wiping up grease or liquids immediately im-mediately after spilling may prevent pre-vent many a nasty fall.
