Gay and Interesting Designs for Cushions By RUTH WYETH SPEARS «r\EAR MRS SPEARS: I like ^-^to make interesting cushions —in summer bright cotton cov ered ones and silk covers in the winter. The cost is nothing as I find that after the waists of dresses are worn out, there are still parts of the skirts that are good enough to give long wear when made into these covers. J. B.” Thanks, Mrs. J. B., for that sug gestion, and here are two covers that you might like to try. To make the contrasting edge for the round one, stitch two-inch strips together in points as at A, trim as at B clipping between the points then turn right side ont. Pull out smoothly and press, then gather as at C. Stitch to one section of the cover as at D, then stitch the two sections together leaving an opening for the cushion. To make a pattern for a mod ernistic patchwork cover, cut a rectangle of paper, then divide it into sections as shown. Use these sections as patterns to cut the fabric adding a seam allowance as at F. NOTICE: Two books for the price of one.

How Women in Their 40’s Can Attract Men Here’s go*d advice for a woman during her change (usually from 38 to 52), who fears she’ll lose her appeal to men, who worries about hot flashes, loss of pep, dizzy spells, upset nerves and moody spells. Get more fresh air, 8 hrs. sleep and if you need a good general system tonic take Lydia E. Pmkham’s Vegetable Compound, made especially for women. It helps Nature build up physical resistance, thus helps give more vivacity to enjoy life and assist calming jittery nerves and disturbing symptoms that often accompany change of life.
