At present four kinds of dress forms
are being used. The first is the most
expensive, and is made with q com
merclal dress form and lining to fit
all the lines of the wearer's figure.
The lining is adjusted over the dress
form, and stuffing is put in between
the lining and the form until the lin
ing is tightly filed.
Another variety is made by stuffing
tight-fitting lining with excelsior,
cotton, or some like substance. This
is not as satisfactory as it might be,
for great care must be exercised to
give the dress form the right lines and
it loses its shape more or less rapidly.
A third method is to cover tight
fitting lining, while it is on its owner,
with plaster of paris; this is allowed
to harden, and the whole is then care
fully removed. The lining should have
an opening down the front. Stuffing
is then put in until 1t is firm.
Most Satisfactory Betties.
The most satisfactory homemade
BEETLES, however, are made with
gummed paper. This variety costs
less than "A dollar, and is said to give
as good satisfaction as one which
brings 500 across a counter. They
are made by pasting two thicknesses
of gummed manila sealing paper on
tight-fitting undervest while on the
prospective owners figure. When the
gum has dried, the jacket is removed
by Sitting down the back and front.
These halves are then put together
again with gummed paper. The gen.
eral effect is that of heavy papier-
mache form. One of the best features
of a homemade betty is that it is
an exact duplication of the woman's
own form.
The dress form means real saving
in money as well as time and patience
to every woman whether she is max
ing new clothes or making over old
ones.
