If you're not calorie-minded you might like this trick passed on to me by Washington's Winne Taylor who was booned with 4 pounds of luscious ripe olives. She crushed a clove of garlic in a jar-put in some olives and covered them with olive oil. In about 24 hours, she said, they were yummy . . . but FULL of calories!

We women run pretty true to form in our thinking--for instance there's something about autumn that suddenly makes the average woman take a critical look at her home. New curtains, an extra rug, or, invariably her eyes stop at the family's favorite chair or sofa, which being "lived" in so much have become worn, tired and faded. If your roving eye tells you to make a replacement. you should in fairness to yourself, see the new Candalon three-dimensional, deep-etched nylon weaves which will be available in the fall on better furniture. Candalon was designed to reflect all the wonders wanted by the modern woman in her home--long-wearing, sparkling richness in colors, completely washable and moth-repellent.

What more could we ask for?

When you get home after a day of shopping and those poor tired feet can't bear the pressure of another step-try soaking them in a pan of hot water to which you've added vinegar. Wonderfully refreshing!

Did you know that an attractive serving tray can be made out of an old picture frame? Just back it with plywood and apply a couple of coats of white shellac!

Material that ravels easily can present a problem when cutting. Try marking around the pattern with a wax crayon and then cut on this line -a minimum, if any, raveling will take place!
