DELIGHTFUL DUSTERS

To associate dusting with delight is unusual, but the newest feather dusters are so attractive in form that one might almost be persuaded that dusting is delightful. FOR THE DRESSING TABLE There is no excuse for one grain of dust on the dressing table when a pretty crinoline lady hides a feather mop beneath her volur CLEANLINESS IN THE CAR The woman who motors will be interested in a motor duster that fits snuglv into a suede leather case. The head of the duster is quite full, but the mere action of pulling on th€: cover confines it to a small compass, so that it may easily be stowed away. THE DOMESTIC HEARTH Tidying the hearth while there is a large fire burning is a task which makts the hands dirty and scorched. Neither can hanpen with an ingenious hearth brush, which carries a leather protector upon its handle. The hand of the user slips down behind this, and is fully covered. WHEN DUSTING FINE SURFACES Polishing with an ordinary rubber often means that fine surfaces are scratched. That is why a circular polisher made of finely pulled wool is useful and practical. It induces a good surface without fear of scratches, and. made in pretty colours, with a leather loop for hanging, may be kept at hand without being an eyesore. GERM-PROOF These dusters offer an additional advantage, inasmuch as they are made from sterilised materials. Feathers often carry germs, and unless rendered germ-proof in the factory are liable to convey disease to the home. The process of sterilisation also keeps them immune from moths.
