CATHERINE MAUCK Madison County Home Adviser Just when it seems there are no more really different and ingenious ideas for home decorating, along comes something bright as a new penny plastic webbing, best known for its use on garden chairs, to make window curtains. Vertical strips of white plastic webbing make a distinctive window treatment for a boy's bedroom, den, family room, basement recreation room, or any room in a summer short, anywhere that an informal motif is desired. Plastic by the yard in a choice of colors- is simple for even an inexperienced seamstress to work with, because little actual sewing is involved.

You will need two round cafe curtain rods for each for the top and one for the bottom.

Then simply insert a rod through the fabric loops at each end, leaving one-inch spaces in between the strips. Place the rods in brackets at the top and bottom of the window and presto! You have a neat, tailored window treatment that won't be disturbed by the highest wind or stormiest weather. In fair weather, the webbing strips allow plenty of light to come through because of their loosely woven construction and the spacing. You don't always have to take webbing down to keep it clean, a once-over with a sponge dipped into hot soap or detergent suds will remove surface dirt right at the window.

Then put it into clean warm as for a baby's bath. Wash and rinse it at the same temperature, using an adequate amount of soap or detergent and plenty of water.

For hand-washing, use the bathtub which is large enough to immerse even a double blanket without crowding. Observe the same rules as to water temperature.

They sometimes return as late as 3 p.m. and pass the word that they had to go to the bank, thej doctor, the dentist, or The men and! the women in the office call each Ann Landers other "Doll, Baby, Honey, Dear" and other pet names. They kiss one another when they meet on the street or at a party, or any place at all. If they are so friendly in public what do you think goes on in private? -JUST A DUMB HOUSEWIFE DEAR DUMB: Probably they'd be more reserved in the presence of others, I suspect the bearer of all these glad tidings, who happily reports the goings on at the office, is a bit of a troublemaker. It is a fact that many office workers must do their shopping or banking and see doctors and dentists during their lunch hours, because it's the only time available.

I shouldn't have broken up with him. Please ask him to call and we'll pick up where we left off," When I told Jim of my success he said, "I don't want her now. She has caused me so much grief I could never trust her again." I almost went through the floor.

I told my husband and he was very unsympathetic. He said it served me right for getting involved in other people's affairs. The woman has been calling to ask why she hasn't heard from Jim. I don't know what to say. After having told her that Jim is madly in love with her I can't bring myself to tell her he has suddenly changed his mind.

She will think I am nuts. Please give me some advice. -CUPID FOR LAST TIME DEAR CUPID: It's always a mistake to try to glue together the broken romances of friends. If they can't put the pieces together, forget it, Doll. Tell the woman the truth.

A Lovelier You Swimming Trims Figure From Gourmet Cookbook Celebrity Recipe BORIS KARLOFF scares people for a 'living, though how such a gentle, distinguished looking man could'frighten anyone seems a puzzle. Why, he tells children's stories to little tots and they think he must be Kris Kringle's kindly old uncle. A grownup who remembers Frankenstein and his monster and other lurid movies might suppose that Mr. Karloff's favorite recipe would be compounded of wolfbane and batwings, seasoned with salamander tails. Or at the very least, it would be an exotic mixture from the foggy moors of Transylvania, properly served by a spooky butler who mysteriously appears out of the wall surrounded by eerie wisps of ectoplasm.

Not so. Mr. Karloff is a witty and urbane gentleman of English birth who began life as William Henry Pratt, and he loves fine foods, even as you and I. Mexican food is a favorite of this veteran actor and of all his favorites the special one is Guacamole, an avocado-based sauce that he makes in a spicy, tantalizing fashion. Guacamole is served on a bed of lettuce as a salad or with fried-tortilla wedges as an appetizer, or simply as a sauce.

Distributed by King Features Syndicate By MARY SUE MILLER A idvely writes: I've put off trimming my figure and ft shows, now that I'm wearing a bikini to get a tan.

I'm not fat, but my legs, waist and arms are not as trim or firm as they should be. What exercise works the fastest? The Answer: To get your figure in swim-suit shape in hurryi there's no better form of exercise than swimming. So take your bikini swimming often as you can! But if you don't happen to have a swimmin' hole handy, you can get the same results by swimming on land. Simply lie, lace down, on a broad, sturdy stool and do this land version of the crawl: 1. Stretch out with arms extended forward, palms of hands facing floor and legs together.

2. Pull right arm straight down and back until it lies against body; bend and raise elbow as far out and up as possible; immediately reach forward to starting position. Similarly move left arm, beginning as right elbow bends. 3. Accompany arm motions with flutter-kicks of legs; ly pump them up and down from hip joints, keeping knees relaxed.

4. Work for maximum stretch in waist and arms, and pull in thigh muscles. All motions should be purposeful (not hectic), continuous and rhythmical. After ten minutes every muscle in your body will feel the good of the exercise. Your figure will show it with trimmer, firmer line after just a few weeks of workouts.
