KfTCHEN TWINS HELP HOUSEWIVES' Pot cloths, like blessings, should never come single. In fact, any housewife would call it a blessing to own a set of twin holders joined together on a long piece of tap, and worn around the neck when she is cooking. Then there is no hunting for the elusive holder at critical moments and fewer burnt lingers from taking a chance on the landle's not being really hot. By having two holders always ready one can use the first for lolding the handle of pan, the other 'or taking oil the lid, or for the two ia:ulles of a roasting pan. A single large size (lour bag will nnkc half a dozen of such sets, ise the bags you have on hand nun baking or get them from your ocal baker for a few cents each, 'here are many ways of removing he stamping. One of the best to oak it in kerosene overnight an hen wash out in warm water oan. Make the holders of a cenerou ize, use a thick interlining of craps from old underwear or flan el, And bind '.lie edges vith col red bias tape. ' In making them for baz!r -here these twin sets sell tb Mverbial hot cakes they may -v aile attractive by a simple appli icd motif made with odd bin of ngham, or by some amusing little sign quickly worked in outline Eitcr- , liftu ciIiik Vour Piano Keep the piano free of Hcnrvps ami cover mul nl.-n free nf vanes, bowls, or ornament.

XI'W IM'.Slr.NS IN TAM.K kxivi:s ' There are. nf emll-so.1 fr,nh- Ions In tlosicn. but frequently a Funeral flesin is nilhernd to f o Ioiik that any rndicil de- parture from It stands out as an Innovation. For many year. probably from the be- clnnlne of their use knives for thp table have had blades inrnewhat binuer than the handles. So when we recent- 4 ly saw a definite departure from this deslcn In the form of knives havlna blades short- er than the handles, we won- dered Just how the new de- si.n would affect the ease nf nsintr them. We found, on using them that the short blade was effective, ami thkt the lone handle was comfort- able and easy to hold and tte. The df-slcner would no doubt offer this as one reason for the new design, which Is also KT'tceful and balaherd In 4 line. Making Your j Curtain Decorations , The slmpllelty of curtalnlni! 10 day has hrout;lH drapery fixtures Into a prominence which makes their selection a matter of real im portance. The voKtie for llufian and (span ish rooms has Introdtieed the orna I mental rod or pole. Its use lias i .spread rapidly to homes which arc furnished In KnKlLh. French, or AmirliiLn styles, and rotis are uoav ! betnu designed to meet the re lOUirements of all periods, as we'.l as all purposes. From brackets in rinKs. they have been conceived ! with his:orleal accuracy. Tie-backs ! of metal. tila.-i.s. tr wood, are als'' I maile in many i.ttrncllvo designs. ! The.; are screwed Into the win j dow frame to support the looping cord of a draped curtain. Many of them follow Colonial proreiiert and are Inexpensive decorative features. There are two main lypes of cur tain rods, those whch ex'end to rcoulred size nml are flat In .shape, ami those which must be cut to fit. These are usually rods of tubular metal. The latter enme in cast Iron or In hand wrought Icon which Is naturally more expensive. Ornamental shapes are placed a' the ends of the rods, or hrr.okcls. and often in the center of the r 1 where it appears between two cur tains. V Revolution In China Chinaware has j;one as modern as wallpaper for the present day home. Kvery month sees new desiKiis In table pottery. All f ihem have certain ' niriililies in common: Freedom from eonveii. tlnnfillliv extreme slmolicitv. dec- oratlve features in flat, poster-like colors and conventionalized forms. The majority of new pieces are n the heavier forms of pottery and earthenware. Most of it comes In breakfast tray or tea sets and the deslcns are variations of what has become generally accepted as "the mndcr.l form." For example, there Is 1 breakfast set which is a ceomel -rical' composition in cones, cyl inders, and rlnfis, and comes In twelve pr.y pieces. It has a ma: Blaze and may be had In two color enmbinations lemon yellow with a turnMPlse linliiK and turquoise wilhn yellow lining "' " '- . '-; Luncheon sets are also colorful, one In lncquer red with black ree.l handles on the teapot neins im llcularly pleaslns. It l a depart ure from the modern trlanKtilnr pattern. All the forma are oval, and a quaint touch Is clvon hy the handle to the cups.,, which are without holes. For afternoon tea, there Is a set In white permnn pottery, wlih a delicate hand-drawn dcsiiin In silver. It Illustrates one of , the popular trends In modern table decoration, the use of hlnck and white. Some of the most popnla of the modern pottery Is all whit or cream white: n much approved combination Is which cups and snucers on black fr.ience plates. Thre Is too. a tea set of lnequ-'-r red lined with white, distinctive for Its .unusual design. The bowls of the cups are round, but everv thlnit else Is built on the triangular plan, large trlanges nr spoutr, handles, and tops of covers. An Interesting new bridge a-', consists of twelve pieces and Is made In-shrnes of hearts, dia monds spades' and club". Th' plates have inch-wide red borders with the Insignia of the ruits 'n ii,- oxnter runs and saucers are shaped like the suits and are in red or hlnck. An attractive n., m this bridge set is four in dividual tiny glass ash trays, eaen having In the center a spade, hear:, diamond or club. In color. Most alluring of all the separ ate pieces, are the kitchen bowls. They nre a veritable rainbow hurst. Rome of the most beauti ful se:s nre In modern shapes, and each bowl Is n different color, rust, light green, dark blue, pink, yel-i low. and orange, Howl sets In ofher designs nre shaped like open lotus flowers, in rose or blue, and others have graduated dots of black on white background. They should help any bride to get past those difficult first six months.

The woman who has discovered thiit attractive and practical suits can be made out of used flour and fed bags will And this problem solved, because they can be made for only a few cents apiece.
