upon each, and then carefully cut out.
The two were then carefully laid one
upon the other, and the edges concealed
by Of fine cord or silk, or worked
over in %buttonhole stitch, This style of
work was very much in demand IN the

to turn up. Labor, with keen eyes and

lays the foundation of a competence.
Luck whines. Labor whistles. Luck
relies on chance. Labor ON character.
