Sometimes in those dreary weeks

To Keep Velvet smooth.
A Milliner's trick is to fasten a
Scrap of velvet over the first finger
of the left hand, nap up, while hem-
ming or otherwise at work on the
wrong side of velvet. Tito two naps
are then together, and there is no
danger of matting or dampening, or
soiling tee moat delicate shades. —
