the piece bag will supply all the fabric and filling necessary for
for the outside coverings of the quilted article. The filling may be cotton’ batting, outing flannel or even old knit underwear, Clothing specialists warn against too thick a filling because it makes the quilting difficult and the garment bulky and difficult to wash. The first step in quilting is to mark the fabric lining to guide the stitching. Mark criss-cross lines about an inch and a half apart using a ruler and tailor's chalk. Closer stitching makes the garment too stiff. After marking, put the layers together by spreading the outside fabric flat on the table, then the pad|ding, then the marked lining, Use a long needle and basting thread and baste between the marked lines.
Quilting If the quilting is to be done on
screw, set the stitching to 7 or 8 stitches an inch. Start sewing from the center and work out, stitching four rows in one direction and then four rows in the opposite direction to keep the quilting smooth, After quilting is complete, lay on the pattern and cut out. To make seams in the quilted garment, rip the stitching a halfinch back from the edge and tacks stitch the edges down to the lin ing. If the padding is thick, hand quilting may be easier. Begin in the center and stitch out.

Make Coiffure Last Longer
WITH APPOINTMENTS at the beauty shop at a premium and so little spare time to spend having hair and nails done, we are all finding it profitable to make our manicures and coiffures last as long as possible, It's surprising, too, how a couple of simple precautions will stretch your manicure three or four days. For instance, if you make a habit of carrying a pair of manicure scissors and an emery board in your purse, you can snip off that hungnail or smooth a small nick in your nail before it goes any further. w . »
AND KEEP a bottle of polish in your locker or, desk drawer at work to repair damaged tips. As for your hair, put up the straight ends in pin curls at night and wear a net to keep them In place. It needn't make you look like a skinned cat either. Try winding a yard or so-of pastel net in turban fashion about your head, or use a sturdy “invisible” type of net.

be caused by mental and emotional influences, Relatively few, however, appreciate that the same mental and emotional influences may cause symptoms of arthritis or rheumas tism. X 3 “Psychogenic rheumatism” is the name given this condition by Caph Edward W. Boland and Col, William P. Corr, of the army medical corps, in a report in the Journal of the American Medical Association, : It was, they report, the most fre« quent cause of disability in 450 con« secutive soldier patients they saw whose condition has been diagnosed as arthritis or allied organic condie tion before they were admitted to Hoff General hospital at Santa Bare bara, Cal. . . . SYMPTOMS INCLUDED backs ache and pain, stiffness, and a feels ing of swelling or limitation of mae
tion in the joints and muscles. In a special study of 50 of these sole diers, the medical officers found in 28 of them no objective evidence of muscle or joint disease; that 18, X-ray pictures and various tests failed to show any condition in the joints or muscles that could account for the pain and disability. : The two medical officers do not believe, as some doctors do, that mental and emotional conflicts can cause inflammation of the joints or organic joint disease, such as chronic rheumatoid arthritis, They do believe that in some cases paychogenic rheumatism, besides oo= curring without organic change, may be superimposed on non-dise
abling organic changes.
