FRENCH B%UTToNHoLEs.
They Are Fine, Perfect and Made

They Are Fine. Perfect and Made
with A bsoiufe Care.
The making of ~buttonhcles is an old
time accomplishment which hooks and
eyes rather set in tho background.
French dressmnkers first measure the
intervals accurately and then, at the
point where the front end of the button
hole is to be, make a small round hole
with a bodkin. In this hole they place
the point of the scissors in cutting. There
is a very convenient little contrivance
called a buttonhole cutter, which is SO
arranged as to cut a series of button
holes exactly the same size. The attach
ment which inSures uniformity may be
set at any preferred measurement.
After the buttonho1e is suit it should be
overcast to hold the edges even, and If
it is large and in thick cloth small, round
cord may be basted around it. In work
ing take a little more of the goods
on the needle at the wrong side than on
the right, and in drawing the stitch, not
too tight, be sure to leave the chain on
the outer edge of the buttonhole. Al.
ways have enough silk in the needle to
make a complete buttonhole, as it is I'M
possible to join the thread without ieav-
ing evidence. lake the stitches very
close around the eyelet hole at the front
end and connect the two edges at the
other end by working a bar OF silk
