Darning Rents in Clothes.

Very frequently q little boys clothes
get sadly torn. and the inexperienced
mother does not know how to repair
the mischief without making the gar .
ment unsightly. If ravelings of the
goods are to be had. even very bad
rent can be made almost invisible. But
If silk must be used, have it fine and the
color of the goods. and you will need
fine needle. If the tear is ragged, put
bit OF the goods under it, or of some
other goods the same shade. Baste the
goods around tho rent so rs to hold the
edges smoothly; thread your needle with
the silk. and put the knot on the under
side. Commence at least one-fourth
OF an inch back, and run your needle
with the smallest stitches to the same
depth on the other side, taking care to
keep the thread entirely out OF sight.
Now 60 back again. and SO on, forward
and back, until the rent is closed,
taking care not to draw or expose the
thread. Now dampen the work. slip a
press-board under 1t, and lay piece of
cloth the color of the goods over 1t, and
press with warm iron. A press
board Is one OF tho necessaries for the
mother who makes her boys clothes.

HINTS ON CALLING.
How to Make Yourself Agreeable to
Friends and Acquaintances.

How to Make Yourself Agreeable to
Friends and Acquaintances.
When you are ushered into the par
lor, stare around the room and examine
every thing that happens to be lying
about.
If child or dog comes into the
room while you are waiting, take it on
your lap. If the child cries thereat,
don't mind it. Children should learn
to get acquainted with strangers.
If it is near the dinner hour when
you call, don't hurry. The cook can
put the dinner in the oven and keep it
warm until you depart.
If you carry cane, twirl it with
your fingers. Should it fall and smash
vase or punch hole in picture you
can apologize.
If you happen to be seated near an
other caller, it is quite proper to turn
your back on the individual. 1t shows
you are independent.
Open the piano and begin to play,
whether y on have any skill or not. In
fact, the less you know about playing
the longer you should keep it up.
Handle all the orn aments and bric-a-
brac in the room. You might whittle
the furniture little to ascertain whether
it be solid mahogany OF base imitation.
Pull out your watch every few min
utes during conversation to see what
time it is.
If you find the room too warm open
the windows. This gives the caller the
appearance of feeling perfectly at
home.
If you find the lady of tho house
about to 60 out. begin some long story.
1t will make her so happy to wait
while you tell it.
If you are new conner, call on tho
neighbors at once and get acquainted.
Don't wait to put carpets down OF
stoves up, but call.
Don't discuss weighty subjects when
you make call. Something light-the
tariff or the weight of ton of coal
would be best.
After you have started to go, sitdown
again as often as you think of some-
thing more to say.-Ieras Sifings.
