Street Sewers In China Mend Torn

I'm many towns OF China one may

sewing women are to be seen Oh low

ing articles of masculine attire.
The accomplishments of these street
seamstresses are somewhat limited,
their efforts with the needle being for
the most part confined to running"
Other branches of needlework are prac-
ticully unknown to them. As q conse-
quence their efforts are better appreci-
nted by native workmen than by for
eign travellers.
They are never short OF patrons
among the former, for these are often
natives of other districts and having

are glad to avail themselves Of the
services of the street neellewOmen.

the itlnerant sewing women answers
every purpose.
