The putting on Of the facing to a basque
is Il mice job" II is better to baste first,
then stitch the bottom and turn the facing
up, basting Il again, and then press It be-
fore the inside is finally feled down. That
insures perfect edge If cut straight.
At the present moment sleeves vary
greatly in shape and size, but they are all
very easy to manage If the few fundRmen-
tai rules are followed a diagram here
with shows the main idea, which Is that
the under part Of the sleeve is narrower
than the top. and that the top is rounded,
while the under side Is followed at the top.
The measure should be taken for sleeves
from one inch back of the shoulder seam
and carried down over the bent elbow 20
the wrist. The sleeve to be fashionable
now should be Of the leg O. mutton, plain
bishop, with deep cuff, and the balloon IN
which the upper part is pulled and the fore
arm part quite plain. The last requires
plain, medium snug foundation for the
support Of the balloon tops. The leg o.
mutton can be made in many varieties, the
one most often seen having the upper part
wTinkled. The sleeves now require large
quantity Of material, usually three yards.
The sleeve Is sewn up, the seams whipped
and the wrists finished with a neat piping,
or a cuff Of velvet made over wigan, and
then they are ready to be sewn ia. From
the two dots they should be gathered until
just iit for the arm size. The under arm
seam is TO be pinned 10 the front seam OF
the front side gore, and the back arm seam
will come naturally to an inch below the
shoulder seam iu the back Basic the
lower part OF the seam to the waist, and
then turning the sleeve toward you haste
forward from the back arm seam, keeping
the gathers mostly on the top Of the shoul
der Then sew strongly and overcast.
All tailor finished dresses should have
as nearly plain sleeves as fashion will al
low. Modified leg o. mutton Is now the
accepted style, with the wrists left open
an inch on the back, and finished with a
silk "arrowheRd" or row Of very small
bnttons Sleeves for silk or fine goods
have quite a bouiIante effect just now, and
will take much more elaborate trimming
| than wool.
Il requires now about ~ yards Of a.
inch goods for basque and balloon or leg o.
mutton sleeves. A diagram Of leg O. NUT

that this sale was not due TO his slender
sermon, but to the touching anecdote
told by the princess, forming the prefa-

the story is that in 1888 all the five chill
