T 'H E R E was a time when you * thought that only the finicky housekeepers made protective cov­ erings for their bedding, but that’s not so any more. Any woman who Is interested in saving on the clean­ ing as well as the budget, as far as new bedding Is concerned, will either buy or make the coverings for bed blankets, mattresses and pil­ low*. Why aren't sheets and pillow cases enough? Because, not only doe* a certain amount of soiling go through this type of bedding, but there is a steady accumulation of dust which eventually will mean that you have to try to clean the bedding Itself — a difficult feat In­ deed. There’s no doubt about the wear and tear on the bedding, too, when you don’t protect It, as it gets steady use. There's apt to be more pulling on pillow cases, for example, as you change and use them, if they don’t have covers, and the same Is true of mattresses. If you're interested in real clean lines*, of course. It's much easier to get it by frequent launderings of the mattress cover, pillow covers, mattress covers and blanket shields. Protective measures such as I ’ve just mentioned are absolute essen­ tials in dusty and sooty communi- 1 pound m u n h ro o m s 2 tablespoon* buffer 2 tablespoon* flour 2 cup* milk 14 cup buttered bread crumbs Cook green beans in boiling salt­ ed water until tender.

Blanket Covers. Cuffs May be Decorative During the last few years there has been more of a tendency to bring out the light-colored blankets Naturally, these soil more readily than the old dark-colored ones, but they can be protected fairly well by what are known as blanket cov­ ers. Blanket covers are made as sheets and used on the bed while it is in a state of undress — early in the morning, and when in use. Choose a fabric that does not slip off during the night — washable silk, cotton, challis, rayon, crepe, sheer or mus­ lin. Blanket covers do not take the place of a daytime spread, although some are lace trimmed or elab­ orately monogrammed, but they are nice when the room is used in- 34-48 W arm and Comfortable C O R cold w inter nights — this 1 pretty yoked nightdress will be cozy and w arm m ade up in a flow­ er sprinkled flannelette.

P a in hits you with Mattress Covers, Pillow Cases Of Muslin or Plastic Pillow cases and mattresses are difficult to clean, and for that reas­ on it’s important to take care of both with removable covers. Then these can be laundered several times a year, or once a month if your locality is a particularly sooty one. F it and durability are the prime requisites for pillow covers and mattresses. Use material which is strong enough to withstand pulling on and off the mattress or the pil­ low. A good grade of muslin is a wise choice, some of the un­ bleached types being particularly wear-resisting. Or, you may use some strong sheets as these will enable you to solve the problem of fitting easily. Sheeting also may be used for covering the pillows, but it should be durable as that used for the mattress. In cases where there is a definite allergy to feathers or other mate­ rials used in the bedding, plastic is a good choice. The plastic material should be of the heavier grade as it is important to have durability. Whether you buy them or make them, be sure that they fit well, as they give better wear as well as comfort Zippers make the best closings for both the pillows and mattresses, but if they prove too expensive, try a snap-on type of closing or even ties placed at regular intervals. • Rub in Ben-Gay for fast-acting, gently soothing relief from neuralgic pain.
