How to Hang a Skirt.

Home dressmakers sometimes experience great difficulty in fitting a skirt on themselves so that It will hang properly when finished. Here is an ingenious method which the woman who thought of It says is infallible. Slip on the skirt you are making and over it another skirt which hangs very well. Stand on a chair and have some one (even a child can do this) put pins In the new skirt at the exact bottom of the old one. When you have pins all around the bottom, turn up the hem at the row of pins. Tour skirt will thus hang perfectly without wast'ng your time or labor.
