Notes From Woman's Realm.
Hints to Needle Women

Never use long basting-threads, es-
pecially in the basting OF waists, nor
think to save time by taking long
stitches Pins should be used plenti-
fully while fitting garment ON the
figure, but they should be replaced i'm
mediately with regular basting the
moment the garment is removed. The
position for hooks or buttons, and for
the corresponding eyes or button-hOles,
should be carefully outlined with thread
in preference to marking with pencil
or soapstone.
When curved seams are to be stitch
ed up on the machine. fine basting-i
e., by means of short stitches-becomes
Imperative II the seamstress would
avoid puckering in her work. II such
curved work be around the foot OF a
skirt, as in the case of fiareds ruffle
the hem first should be basted. lightly
sponged, and carefully pressed before
the stitching is done. The amateur
dressmaker is sometimes troubled over
slight bulging at the point of a dart
in the skirt or bodice, when otherwise
the garment fits most satisfactorily
Generally this may be obviated by
lightly spOnging the part in question
and pressing with. hot iron SO that. a
quick shrinking follows.-Harper's Ba-
zar.
