A Darning Hint.

Mothers who are confronted weekly with tremendous holes in almost new stockings-—and it is re markable what two days’ wear by an active child can accomplish in this respect-will do wrll to follow the lead of one home darner who has worked out her own salvation in the matter very cleverly. She take a piece of strong net, bastes it over the hole and then darns over it. thus accomplishing a neater and stronger darn than in the old way and in a shorter time. The same method is successful in mending woven underwear.
