To Save the Towels.

I kept discovering little holeg, In my towels and had no idea how they got there till I saw my husband wiping his razor blade on them, says a correspondent of the New York Sun. He never cut through, but" he was apt-to cut a thread in spite of his care, and in the next washing the hole appeared. I took some old towels, hemmed several small pieces about the size of a handkerchief. sewed a loop to the corners, and keep one of them all the time hanging on u hook by the shaving mirror. Since he began to use these I have found no more holes in the towels.
