Showing a New Use For Candle Wicking By RUTH WYETH SPEARS IX/'HEN we last heard of Marty and Bill the curved bottom shelf of that old buffet had not been used. Well, Bill made it ijito a cornice board for the bathroom window, and painted it blue. Then Marty went into action on curtains to match. Grandmother is an expert at do ing old-fashioned candle wicking, so together they made the tufted curtains illustrated. They used —/> A | SB J K STITCHES WITH CANDLEWICK NEEDLE AND 4 a STRANDS OF& COTTON YARN JP DOUBLE^ ,X- & A 0 ^CLIP ^.^DIP Jit IN WATER ® TO SHRINK plain white muslin marked off di agonally in three-inch squares. They found the blue they wanted for the tufting in a soft string type of cotton yarn. The sketch tells you the rest. The dipping is what really turned the clipped stitches into tufts; then the cur tains were stretched into shape to dry but were not ironed. All this about curtains has given Gram the most wonderful idea for some thing for a bride’s kitchen shower that is coming off soon. It is pret ty clever, we think. Watch for it, next week. NOTE: Many other old-time stitches have modern uses. Sew ing Book 2 contains directions for 42 of these stitches with sugges tions for their use in your home. To get a copy send order to: MRS.

Name ...\ Address Glad Season Youth is to all the glad season bf life; but often only by what it attains or what it escapes.—Car lyle. There Are Two Ways to Get at Constipation Yes, and only two ways—be/ore and a/ter it happens! Instead of enduring those dull, tired, head achy days and then having to take an emergencycathartic—why not KEEP regular with Kellogg’s All-Bran? You can, if your con stipation is the kind millions have —due to lack of “bulk” in the diet. For All-Bran goes right to the cause of this trouble by supplying the “bulk” you need. Eat this toasted, nutritious cereal regularly—■with milk or cream, or baked into muffins— drink plenty of water, and see if your life isn’t a whole lot bright er! Made by Kellogg’s in Battle Creek. If your condition is chron ic, it is wise to consult a physician. V Valuable Book That is a good book which is opened with expectation and closed with profit.—Alcott.

It points the way. We merely follow—follow to new heights of comfort, of convenience, of happiness. As time goes on advertis ing is used more and more, and as it is used more we all profit more. It's the way advertising has — of bringing a profit to everybody concerned, the consumer included
