Wen, that agree nent seems to SET
he it, I remarked ,os ing the PAPER
on the table We won't have to fight
Evening star., 1909-03-14

IN this simple process, if you would
execute it satisfactorily. One is,
see that your material is level-cut
and folded by a thread-and that
your design is placed upon it evenly
at every point.
The second is, when placed accu-
rately, secure the design to the ma
terial with thumb tacks or pins 90
that they cannot slip during the
operation.
transfer paper comes in white
black, blue, red and yellow. I ad-
wise the use of the lighter colors
when possible, as the black and blue
are so liable to crock.
do not rest your hands or fingers
upon any part of the design Won are
transferring, else the imprint of
hand or fingers will be as distinct
upon the material as the drawn
lines of the design.

linen or fine batiste. and it could be
used for linen frock or for more
dressy gown of pongee or silk
The rosebuds are so arranged that
they extend around the neck and
finish in a point in the front. so that
should you desire to wear the guimpe
with a V-shaped neck line 1t would
be very effective. On the other hand.
the guimpe is plenty wide enough to
be worn with a square-necked gown.
1t would be perfectly possible and very
pretty to finish the dots In solid work
instead of eyelet, which would make it
somewhat heavier. but if you expect to
use the guimpe for a gingham frock
it would be just as attractive.
A little touch of very narrow cluny
insertion introduced at the top and
the base Of the collar would be a
great improvement to the dainty bit
of work. The edge Of the material
should be rolled and the insertion
whipped on. This always gives the
neatest effect. The cluny at the base
of the collar will be used to join it
with the guimpe.
Let me advise you to get the mar
rowest cluny that comes, SO that the
effect will be like beading.

How to Apply the Design

HERE are two ways to apply
this design to the material
upon which you wish to work it.
If your material is sheer-such
as handkerchief linen, lawn, batiste
and the ike-the simplest method
is to lay the material over the de-
sign, and, with well-pointed pencil,
draw over each line.
If your material is heavy, secure
piece of transfer or impression
paper. Lay it, face down, upon this;
then draw over each line of the
paper design with a hard pencil or
the point of steel knitting needle.
Upon lifting the pattern and trans
fer paper you vii find a neat and
accurate impression of the design
upon your material.
There are two points to observe
