Another ridiculous TODD fad has

The ovcrlaid seam is worth consid- sring where wash linen gowns are con. ocrned. The inside out of the ordi- nary seam is so hideo-sly shown up by the action Of the iron that it Is or should be taboocd So perhaps one of the most practically useful skirts for the purpose hes its seams well over
 laid and stitched down, 2 hip yoke piece moldel perfectly to the figure receiving thc skirt at the top. except In tie immediate front, where the smarily cut front gore runs up to the
 waist itself An alternative model is the popular box pIaited skirt, and here the turninss of the upper part of the seams before the box plaits begin, al 2 trebly stitched on either side and thus give almost the effect of. overlayinE and resist the deadly efforts Of the laundress The seams of coats and boIeros. occurring as they do only on the shoulders and under the arms, are likewise best overlaid and stitched. the sleeve seams only being stitched naturally and bou1a inside without be-
