Mending Gloves.

The safest and best way to mend gloves that have ripped at the seems or split across the back or palm Is to carefully buttonhole the edges of the tear vwith fine silk matching exactly the color of the kid. After both sides of the rent are buttonholed, catch the stitches together through the center, sewing ova- and oyer and taking up each stitch. By using this method the gloves will never tear out again at the same placet This also makes a neat finish. ~
