Button Wisdom

The right or wrong kind of buttons can make or break the good appearance of a garment. That is why it is so important to choose new buttons wisely.

For example, we must al- ways buy go-togethers for best effect, Wood or leather buttons for a tweed garment or for heavy knitwear; ivory and plast- ic for cottons; jewelled, crystal, jet, pearl or porcelain for dressy fabrics,

We should always buy but- tons that are guaranteed wash- able. Every garment we wear has to be either washed or dry cleaned frequently, and if the buttons are not wash-

right shape and number to accent a line or point up the pattern in the fabric. Choose square or geometric buttons for stripes, and shiny metal balls for checks.

Whenever possible, it is wise to leave the button choosing un- til after the dress has been made. Then take the dress with you to the button shop and choose your buttons, It may suprise you to discover that the buttons you had in mind do not do as much to flatter the dress as the but- tons you may have ignored, And always leave the buttonholes un- til after the buttons have been decided upon.

useful to save house- keeping dollars.

For example: Old flannel-'

ette sheets that are worn thin in the centre can be split down the middle, and the two sides sewn together to become a new, strong centre which will. give many more months of warmth and wear,

An old flannelette nightgown, which usually wears out first in the sleeves, can be cut down and made into a warm nightie for a little girl.

The back part of a man’s shirt is usually still good after the collar and sleeves are worn out. When hemmed neatly all around, this good back part of the shirt makes towels to dry pots and pans, to pat lettuce and other vegetables dry after washing and to wipe off meats before cooking.

Many of these chores leave a stain which would be a calamity on a good tea towel, but do not

matter one iota in a makeshift towel made from the back of a shirt for just that purpose. After they are too badly stained for kitchen use, they can always be’ used for window cleaning and many other housecleaning chores, Old woolen socks are ideal polishers for shining shoes, buff- ing wax floors or polishing silver. The good top of a woolen sock also makes a good windbreaker cuff or storm cuff for a coat.

For Thrifty Shoppers

What takes the biggest bite out of the family food budget? .Is it the high cost of living? Or ds it ‘really the cost of living high? It’s true that food prices are ‘higher today than they have been in the past, but the increas: ed cost of food has been more me ae by higher earnings. .. the homemaker - who:

tects obliged to be penny wise in cher. shopping, here area few

Renew Old Luggage

If your old luggage is looking old and battered from time and travel, you can make it look pre- sentale enough for more mileage at very little cost.

First of all give it a good cleaning inside and out with the vacuum cleaner, using the cre- vice tool to get into the pock- ets and corners.

When the case is thoroughly clean, glue down any loose bind- ings or peeling leather. Then

give it a coat of leather paint.

The new leather paint gives a leather-like finish that will fool even an expert at a short dis- tance.

When the paint ‘s dry, give it a good coat of wax for a shin- ing finish and to protect the

paint,

The entire process takes only about an hour of your time and the cost is about one dollar, It is really worthwhile when you consider that you have saved yourself the price of a new piece of luggage.

Laundry Tips

To avoid stretching a sweat- er during washing, never lift it with your fingers while it is soak- | ing wet. The weight of the water

will pull it out of shape at the portion held in your fingers. To lift, slip your cupped hands under the sweater while it is still submerged in water, Squeeze the water out gently as you lift, making sure the entire weight of the sweater is supported by your cupped hands.

To hasten drying time, fold it neatly in a turkish towel and run it through the wringer. Or, if you have an automatie wash- er, turn the dial to ‘dry’, place the sweater in a small bag and spin out the excess moisture.

Slip covers should be stretch- ed over the furniture they be- long on while they are still damp.

They will dry to an-exact fit and will look just as neat as though they were ironed. It saves the work of ironing.

Glazed chintz curtains should not be wrung out. This creates deep down wrinkles that are al- most impossible to iron out. Wash lightly and let drip dry in a breeze, While still quite damp, iron them on the right side to preserve their gloss.

rules to follow that will make the budget dollar reach a bit farther,

The first rule is toshop when the stores are not very busy. The Prices don't go down at. these perods, but you will be able to take more time to compare prices and choose the best bargains,

Another rule is to always make a shopping list and stick to it no matter how tempted you are to add to your wagonload. Shopping with a. list helps to cut out ‘impulse buying which can make a grocery bill soar.

Meat is a big item in the family budget. You should watch your ads to see what meat is being featured at the ‘various Store, You can save a lot of money on ‘meat by buying the kinds that are plentiful. The law of supply and demand has a strong effect on the price of meat. Perhaps .more so thin on. any other food product. One week cheap; the next week it will be in ‘short supply and the price will take a big jump, The thrifty budgeteer will buy the meat that is plentiful.

‘Another simple cost-cutter is to buy medium-sized eggs i stead of large. Actually, you won't notice any difference
