out of focus at first and gradually
brought into focus Then the two films

WHEN SEWING ON BUTTONS.
Little Hints That viii Add Greatly
to Their Life.

While lace buttons are pretty, they
never should be sewed on any but the
sheerest frocks and waists, such as
perline lawn, mercerized batiste or
mulls and organizes. They do not
wear well and soon give out despite
the most careful laundering and they
are too expensive for the ordinary
purse. There is only one way to make
these dainty but perishable things last
and this is by sewing up and down
through them. Few people know that
this can be done, but this is possible
for these little lace buttons are made
on bone foundation which has a
hole in the middle.
There is a great deal more art In
sewing on buttons than one would
imagine, and there are several little
tricks which can be employed that few
people have discovered One of these
little tricks Is to place the knot on
the right side of the goods so that 1t
will come underneath the button and
thus be protected.
The reason some people find II hard
to make buttons stay fast Is because
they place the knot on the wrong side
where It is broken off by the iron the
first time II is Numbered. thus allow
ing the threads to become loosened.
Another way is to run pin under
the button so that II does not lie
close to the material. When the but
ton has been sewed on run the needle
out between the button and the. ma
terial and holding the thread firmly
between the thumb and first finger
wind II around and around the threads
which serve to hold the button to the
material. This method is the strong
est one and is particularly good for
sewing buttons on children's waists
and trousers where they have good
deal of strain.
Four hole buttons such as are used
for sewing on the bands of petticoats
and other undergarments should be
sewn first through the two holes on
one side and then through the oppo
site two and never by any means dag
onally.
When buttons are sewn on diagonal
ly they almost invariably break, taking
out the entire center portion.
