people by its newspapers. Never buy
town lots where a poor. half-starved
newspaper is published. Newspapers

Mhey are so cheap that the poorest mar

or six inches across the front, with long
stitches on the wrong side and small
ones on the right, to make large. coarse
gathers of the kind our grandmothers
used. Much Of the fullness is pushed
toward the back, but to give the proper
bell-like slope the gathers must be ad-
justed to the figure when the skirt is
tried On.
There are three cores on each side, a
slightly gored front breadth and a slop-
ing seam in the middle of the back. The
trimming is usually put on the edge if
the material of the dress is heavy, but
for evening dresses puffs or plain bands
are sometimes put IN in successive far
apart rows as high as the knee. Some
dressmakers line the gored skirt through
out with silk. Others prefer a very
light lawn, almost as thin as null, think
ing that a heavier lining Injuries the set
of the cores. In any case a facing of
crinoline from Z to IA inches wide is
added to the edge of the skirt. Attaching
of thin silk is generally used to conceal
the stiffening.
