DRESSMAKING AT HOMR
DRESSMAKING AT HOMR By SYLVIA. A Magyar Yoke Blouse. It is not a little surprising to those who accuse Dame Fashion of fickleness to find how very long a time she h&s remained faithful to the MHityw or kimono type of garment, which even now shows no signs of waning in favour, and all the models of what are known as advance fashions show this effect of line and looiin.' where the bodices and coats are concerned. For the more youthful members of my r. idors who may be wanting a new blo i-' T r. v selected—in No. J,760—a pattern v.' <• of the most popular of the ih being cut on Magyar lines, winch g. vt-s th loose, long-shouldered effect we still ptvler t PATTERN NO. 1,760. Lnv other, and at the same time the fulness av the lower portion which it is not possible to at- tain with the all-in-one shape. This type of blouse looks charming carried out in silk, satin, crepe-de-chine, or any softly- woven fabric, either of the plain or brocaded variety, the trimming in the design sketched consisting of a narrow fur at the back of the neck and round the sleeves, though, if you do not quite care for this, you can substitute any other form of trimming you prefer. If you 4o not like the fur I should sug- gest replacing this by a full ruching of tulle or net just round the back of the neck, to give the Medici effect which is slowly coming into favour in this country, though it was much seen in Paris nearly two years ago. In the accompanying diagram I have shown how to arrange the various portions of the pat- tern on the material selected-in this case 1 yard of 42-inch; but if 22-inch or 36-inch be selected the method will be the same. It has to be opened out in order to get the yoke all in one, as this is better cut lengthways of the material. The back may require a tiny piece joined on, as I have indicated by the turned- back broken lines. DIAGRAM J'OR PATTzzw No. 1780-:1 If you use 22-inch or 36-inch goods it will be better to join pieces on each side, in order to keep the seams of these as far under the arms as possible. Be very careful to keep the centre perfectly even with the line of the selvedge. Mark round very carefully, then join on neatly what may be necessary and press well, having first marked the centre of the back by a tack- thread. then outline the remainder in the eame way. Now make the piping-for which the silk to enclose the cord must be cut on the exact cross— then sew this to the yoke edges, being careful not to stretch or pucker them. Next gather the blouse edges, arrange and sew to those of the yoke, as the notches indicate, regulating the gathers evenly; tack and stitch the arm and ■ide-seams, oversew, cutting and .curving where necessary to make them set well, ana press ttrefully. Now pipe the neck and front edges to corre- spond with the yoke, which should be cut wide ejiough to allow of it being turned in for a hem, sew on the necessary fastenings, also the buttons: hem and press lower edge; then finish off the sleeves, sew on the fur round the neck and sleeve edges, and finish off. A Nicely-Fitting Underskirt. The next sketch—-No. 1,761-is inserted for the benefit of those who do not altogether care for the tango affair illustrated last week, but want something which they can wear com- fortably with the modish slim or slit-ekirt, which is likely to be worn, so far as present in- dications go, for some time to come—i.e., if the newly-introduced trouser af"-iir does not inter- fere with its popularity. The model shown is intended for this, being, as you see from the sketch, cut on closely-fitting lines, and open at the sides to ii!low freedom of movement. These openings Ay- rounded and hemmed at the lower edges, and the whole finished off with rather wide torchon lace of a coarse, firm make, or crochet if preferred, put on quite flat, as is now the mode. A few inches FATTBMT No. 1,761. above this is a strip of insertion, either laid on flat. or, which is prettier, with the material cut away from underneath, and neatened at each side. If this is done, tack and stitch on the insertion evenly at the edges, then cut the material underneath along the centre, turn it back, and hem over the stitches where it has been sewn on at each edge. The pattern is a two-piece affair, the seams, therefore, coming at each side, and joined in the ordinary way, neatened, and pressed. The waist-part is fitted by darts, which should be taken off to a more nothing at the tips, whilst the upper edge is turned in and neat- ened by tape, which is stitched to it at the edge. This should make a hem wide enough for the tape to be run through a few inches from each end of the placket-opening, which is at the cc, back, and former) by making a wide hem on ,boTh sides, folding right over left, and stitch- it)" firmly together where ihov are lapped ever. a flannel petticoat this pattern is all ex- one, and will take 2 to 21 yards of 30-inch or 42-inch goods.

WORK IN THE GARDEN. -
WORK IN THE GARDEN. By Alir F.R.H.Sk PLANT STAKES AM) LABELS. Old plant stakes and labels may used to fea renewed, and this should be attended to now. It is usual to preserve these if made of wood by tarring the portion that goes into the ground, or by charring the ends; but usatbsr method can be said to be quite SATISFACTORY, fungi and moisture often finding a way in, I especially just above the surface soil. A simple and inexpensive plan is when the stakes are thoroughly dry to place them with their lower ends to soak in lime water for several davs. After this they are taken ovt, allowed to dry, and are then painted over with dilute sulphuric acid and put in the 81IB to dry. This results in the formation in the treated wood of calcium sulphate, or gypsum, which is almost insoluble in water and fairly hard, and also is beneficial to plants on ac- count of its richness in lime. CULTURE OF MINT. Mint is 6uch a useful herb all the year round, and especially in the spring, that no garden where the apace can possibly be spared should be without it. The plant is one that will grow in almost any soil; but a damp, fairly rich soil suits it best. In any case, a site where the ground is free from weeds should be chosen, for when once the growth of the mint starts it. is difficult to remove the weeds, which then check the mint and quite spoil it for kitchen purposes. The roots can be divided at the present time, and portione of these should be in- L Portions of root. 2. Trench prepared for roots. 3. Pushing the soil over. PLANTING MINT. serfeed nine to twelve inches apart and three imhes deep. A good plan is to prepare trenches as shown in the sketch, pushing thoo eoit over after the roots have been arranged along the bottom. Mist can also be propa- gated from cuttings, taken. in early summer, and kept well watered. As soon as the plants show signs of going to flower, or get overgrown, a good portion of them should be cut to the ground, and Iresh young shoots will spring up to furnish a sup- ply during the autumn months. The beds may be given a tidy appearance by scattering some rich and fine soil over the surface. If likely to be reqwred, a supply of the herb can easily be provided by forcing in a frame placed over a hot-bed, with a tempeut- ture of about 65deg. An earlier supply than that which is usually available from plants growmg in the open may be had by placing handlights, cloches, or bofcfomteas boxes oovered with a piece of glass over clumpe of plants in the open beds. Protection afcoaAd be given with mats until growth feegiss, and afterwards during the nights only. EARLY PRUNING OF ROSES. Although most roses are best not pruned just yet, there are some which may be treated now, and if it is done as soon as the weather permits it will ease the pressure of work later on. They are the Ay rehires, the Sempervirens, the Boursaulte, and the Rugosas. The first two require nothing more than the removal of dead or weak wood. As regards the Boursaulte, the strong shoots of last year should be shortened to 6ft. or 8ft., the laterals remaining on them being left at full length. The Rugosas, like the Boursaults, throw up strong shoots from the base; they are gene- rally not so strong, but more numerous. Any that are not wanted because they interfere with the symmetry of the bush or for any other reason may be cut away; the others should be shortened to about 4ft. Or, the plants may be cut down almost to the ground, in which case they will produce finer flowers, but rather later than usual. The Chinas may also be pruned early. Tbeee may be divided into two el-ames-thooo which grow into fair-sized bushes and those whieh remain dwarf. The former need only thinning, but the latter should be cut back rather herd. HAND-LIGHTS. A hand-glass or hand-light like that in the sketch is easily put together by anyone handy with took, and where there is no greenhouse ot frame will be found very use- ful for protecting half-hardy plants, and for keeping cuttings close until rooted. Hand- lights of this type are commonly sold made with zinc frames, which have the double ad- vantage of being very durable and of requir- ing no putty for glazing, the glass being held in place with zinc chips, so that reglazing is the simplest possible business. Of course, they are expensive, costing from about 4s. 6d. for a. 12in. light to 14s. 6d. for a 24in. light. Other types of hand-lights include what market gardeners who use them call cap glasses. These are conical in shape, and also have a line frame, which enables broken WOODEN-FRAME HAND-LIGHT. pieces of glass to be renewed, whereas a frac- ture in a cloche or bell-glass, which, of course, is somewhat similar in shape, means the speedy end of all usefulness, although a simple crack can be supported with strips of canvas glued <xn. The simpJest hand-light, next to a wide-mouthed bottle, that I have seen in use is an ordinary transparent gas globe, with a. piece of glass over the upper aperture. Of course, an ordinary box covered with a. sheet of glass is a hand-light, but does not usually permit of so much air space as is desirable. MAGNOLIA STELLATA. This beautiful shrub opens its starlike blos- soms during the litter part of April, and is exceptionally free-flowering, dwarf and com- pact in habit, with innumerable branches, each branch bearing a pure, waxy white flower at the extreme ends before the leaves appear. It seldom exceeds 5ft. in height, and is valuable for beds on lawns, preferably sheltered from the cold winds. While this is a hardy shrub, attention should be given to it when in flower. Flower- ing. as it does, before the frosts have gone, it I well repays a little protection in the way of mats or shading material during frosty nights. An occasional application of weak liquid manure will be found beneficial. Layering is the usual course adopted to in- crease the stock, a method very simple and effective. E. R. B.

Beecham's Pills are an excellent medicine for modern times. They suit our requirements. They meet our needs. Their gentle, yet thorough influence as an aperient speedily stimulates the liver to healthv activity, and their excellent tonic propel jes strengthen the stomach in a maraed degree.
