If this is two or three inches wide it widens both the and the waist just that much, and makes sufficient fullness to allow a deep seam under the arm wh the soll or tear has been; and lo! waist is not only mended but dressier than ever if there has already been an insertion or lace set in along the shoulder and arm line, a wider place may do the work, a ————————— Keep Shoe Mates Together, Try keeping the children's shoes to gether in pairs by the use of clothes pine.
