And autumn is delightful, so beautiful it hurts, especially in the Indian summer days, with gold and blue of the sky, and the leaves aflame.

Never, ever; is the earth and life so sweet, not even in its renaissance of spring. How wonderful to live in a place of changing seasons! There's something wrong with that picture. Let's see, gold, blue, leaves aflame? Ah, yes, the leaves leaves, to the right of you, leaves to the left of you, leaves overhead, underfoot. Can't walk down the sidewalks, if you're a woman and wearing heels, without quite a few leaves attaching themselves to the aforesaid spikes. (Well, they say the layered look is the thing for fall.) Can't even go out the door without them falling on your head.

Even find them, these days, in the sink. What, pray tell, do you do with them? Sweep 'em in the streets? Not, certainly, in these arid days, pile them up and set fire to them Make mosiacs? Exercise mats? Drape them around the living-room pictures, or on the mantel? It was only a very few years ago that I was exposed to the sight of leaves that changed with the season. My particular part of the world for a quarter of a century was one of sun and sun and sun, and evergreen ebony and huisache and mesquite and palms. Just went ape, seeing the hills of Kentucky on fire with the reds and golds and umbers and ambers of the trees in October. Spent one whole day gathering a station-wagon carload of the beauties and violating some laws that stipulate that the leaves are to be seen and heard, not gathered from along public highways, and city parks.

AND took them home and piled branches on everything that could conceivably hold 'em. Turned the heat up, and wept' the next day all that beauly suddenly dead. How do you feel about leaves? we asked a local minister, a surprising and poetic answer: "They have character even in the way they fall." Well, there's a lot of character blowing along Walnut St. these days I've know people who SAID they knew how to preserve leaves, and others who thought they (leaves) made fine mulch for the lawn. I hold no'particular brief for either procedure, and certainly not the energy to rake them up.

Guess I'll just enjoy them, and leave them alone. Alas, alack, I'm getting old suddenly autumn leaves me cold A. M.

It's absolutely terrific! Wash and sort your light-col ored stockings and cut down the back of the stocking remov ing -the seam. Then stuff your pillow with the stockings.

These pillows can be washed in the washing -machine, run through the wringer and dry quickly. They are always "springy," never get musty and are a delight to use. It takes lots of stockings to stuff a pillow, so you girls start saving now! The beauty of using stockings to stuff pillows is that no matter what condition the stocking is in, they can be usec for this purpose. These make luscious bed pillows! N.

GUY MALONE DEAR HELOISE: When there is a real hole or worn out spot in any garment, (even in a sheer fabric) stitch a piece of your famous nylon net to the back, and then mend or darn with added ease! It makes a perfect patch. Ma- erial doesn't pucker. C. D.

FROM HELOISE'S KITCHEN DEAR LADIES: Did you know that you could lake a piece of thin plastic wrap cut it to fit the bottom of our silver tray and then put 'our deviled eggs on it for your parties and it won't even show? Try it, it's so! it won't tarnish the sil- Use this method for all silver trays and protect them. Es pecially the acid foods (which eat silver) such as pickles, olives, etc. HELOISE DEAR HELOfSE: What do you do when you shop once a month and you find hat bag of potatoes getting old and wrinkled?
