RUGS ON CARPETS
TT S. writes deploring the fact that she is unable to change the arrangement of her drawing room as completely as she wishes, because there are dingy areas on the carpet where rugs have been lying for some months. Can I suggest a remedy to keep that part of the carpet underneath the hearthrug, for instance, as newlooking as the rest? she asks.— The dingy appearance, of course, is due to dust percolating through the rugs and being practically worn into the carpet. The remedy is to cut a sheet of brown paper the same size as the rug and tack it underneath. Dust filtering through is thus caught in suspension.
