Some one has been writing to the papers
complaining that English women are for-
getting how to Sew. Perhaps there is
some truth in this. I was examining the
other morning, an old piece of sewing done
by,Mrs. Gray's grandmother, in which the
stitches are do miraculously small and'nest
� that they might now almost 'take rank" as
lancy Work. There waS a marvellous little
darn in one piri of the fine muslin. the
garment in queetidubeiiag a baby's chris-
tening robe. Well, this darn wag. filled
in with lace stitches, Such as weretiBed in'

so fine that the work must have -been
rattlidt'trying to khe eyes. The Begins were
not ru R and felled, as they are now, but
each Bids Of the seam was hemmed with
the narrowest possible little tiny-, p9ft
hem, and the two were .1 top -pewed "
against each other.. The needle used must
I - - have been- exceFomly -amail, or . the -work -
could never have been so neat. The little
robe was evidently a labor of love, and the
