En! you are planning your
sunrmq- needleWork don't
forget to my several yards
or Wing. of one hind or another.
There are so mm interesting things
to make of it.
For one thing. thus are towels.
one never has too many of them for
one'e own use. and nothing makes
more attractive gifts or prises than
towels.
The newest mo! in" embroidered
towels scans to be that the em-
broidery designs are made in con-
ventional blocks of square or oblong
design. very often. Another thing is
that bands of plain heavy net are
inserted between rows of embroid-
ery. giving a. most attractive eflect.
Many French knots are used, some-
times lines of them outlining other
embroidery. sometimes rows of them
marking on: the design of the towel.
Cut work. English eyelet, cross-
stitch and the usual solid stitches
are ‘ used. Thu-e is perhaps less
scalloping for towel ends than usual. .
Ends are finished with hematitchedi
bems, and sometimes with crocheted ;
lace sewed on.
Very attractive towels, only ones,
too, are made of white lines: towel-
iag with colored heme hematitched
on. Sometimes the towels are made
in colored linen. the applied hem of
white. This linen toweling comes in
guest-towel width. It comes. also,
:n hockaback. in colors as well as
white. It is a clever trick to make
a set of towels for each guest room
in a. color—for home, at least—that
matches the room.
There are lots of things besides
towels that you can make from
toweling. Of course, from the 113;:-
sues toweling you can make table
runners and squares and napkins.
And some clever women use this
toweling for window curtains at
their cottage bedroom. living-room
and dining~room windows. You can
make very effective runners, too. of
the white towelins. banded at the
ends with color to match the pre—
dominant color of your china.
One woman who wished an opaque
curtain for a cottage bathroom win-
dow dyed a Turkish towel a soft
blue and hung it. on rings that slid
easily back and forth on a rod. in
front oi her window. It was a de-
cided success.

I: are all familiar with the
hard-boiled egg—so much so
that we might resent having
some new-fangled cookery expert
try to tell us just what a hard-
boiled egg really is.
To begin with. the expert wouldn't
say hard-"boiled." The fashion now
is to say hard-"cooked.” It seems to
be technically more correct Much
the way that tried potatoes aren't
really "fried." unless they: are tried
in deep fat—“French fried." as we
used to say. What folks used to call,
n-ie'd potatoes are really muted
potatoes to the cookery expert.
What about the old-time fried cake?
Should we call that a muted-cake?
Well. to go back to hard-boiled—
no, hard-cooked eggs. The experts
tell us that to produce the desired
results—we should cool: an egg "tor
{arty-five to sixty minutes at 180 to
90 degrees." Otherwise the egg will
be tough and leathery. Now the
"hard-boiled" egg needn’t be boiled
at all; in fact. it is far more easily
digested if it is cooked entirely be-
low the bolling point.
Really. the trick of hard-cooking
an egg-ls much easier than such
feats as coddling or soft-boiling an
egg. Because cooking it a little
longer than forw-flve or fifty min-
utes does not really harm the egg.
or. make any appreciable diirerenoe.
But when it comes to cuddling an
egg—the task becomes emplicated.
Learned men and women in uni-
versities have bent their heads over
the problem of coddllng an egg
properly. Something depends on the
sort of stewpan you use. on the size
of it. on the amount of water in the
stewpan. whether the egg was taken
from the refrigerator or ' from a
warm room. whether the dish was
oova’ed or left open.

these things too. Under cumin
conditions the egg will need six
minutes. under others eight minutes
to be soft coddled. It is a good plan
always to use the some amount of

you want uniform results. ’

And they put a little of this or that

themselves. If you have a real
knack this way then. it is quite a
good plan, for the same sort of
