The old lioness knew he was afraid, and he knew that she knew it. One day the other man was taken ill and left, and Jun actually put oft going in alone to clean out her cage. He walked up and down outside the cage, trying to laugh away his own fears, and then he went slowly out int? the open alga _ . " There was still an hour or so before the afternoon performance.

Hate begets hate, and in the distance he could hear the growling lioness and the lion's deep tour. This job was his living. He eouldn't give it up. Of course, there was other work, but he would have branded him- self for ever as the man who lost his nerve if he took any other work. . He sank into a secluded seat in the circus gardens, and looked gloomily across st the fading sunlight and the faint grey mist that was slowly rising ov‘er the distant landscape. Gradually, in spite of the raw and frosty tit, and in spite of his fear. he began to get drowsy, for he had lain awake nearly all night. His head fell forward, and his cigarette fell from his hand to the ground. . _ . Above him the robin sang his plain- tive song, and in the distant men- agerie some performing cockatoos ut- tered their faint, yet harsh, acreech. Jim stirred uneasily in a broken slecp.

Any new little thing in my "wing kit is like new shoestring! to a child; it makes me feel so flated up that it takes a good deal to daunt me. One day I found myself alone when I needed somebody to determine where the bottom of 'the hem should ethne on the skirt I ?y9.entki.nt.r. It was very neeessary,,3Mt I finish the gar- ment 'that damnd I cast about for some way to help myself out’of the predicament. Finally it occurred to me to rub ch11: long a long edge of the tsewintruttble. Then I put on the ,skirt, adjust“ it properly " the waist, and put a gain in front where I wanted the bottom of the hem to be. Then I turned around slowly a number of times, just touching the edge of the table, until there was a well-de- fined chalk line around the skirt. This line, of course, was an equal distance from 'the floor all the wsy around. Little Invention- That Mave Me1tred I removed the garment, spread it) out on the table, and measured the distance from the pin to the point' in line directly above it. To this dis- tance I added the depth of the hem, with half an inch extra for turning under at the top. This determined the point in the middle of the front where the skirt should be trimmed off. With the yardstick and crayon I marked off this number of inches below the line for the desired length all the way around, then I tried on the skirt, to be sure the bottom was true before I cut away surplus ma- terial. The hem was put in in the usual manner, and proved to he so even that since then I have been quite independent of the services of I helper when making my own gar- ments. It has been a wonderful help, and did not cost one penny. A friend showed me her patent darner that fastens to the foot of her sewing machine. Of course, I wanted one, too. Then I discovered that with a set of embroidery hoops I could do even better work on torn plus: in garments than she did, and with less effort. By using the large hoops with flat pieces and very small ones for rents in very inaccessible places, I get rid of a bunching-up of material that she always has to contend with. tl') out his land at last and patted er, lightly but commandingly, on the head, still keeping n wary eye on her.

And then he drew sud- denly and swiftly buck and left the can in a twink ing of an eye, and listened mechanically to the roar of upphuog. A ; - A With a piece of thin material under- neath the place to be mended, I fasten the cloth in the loops so it fits snugly with the torn or worn place in the centre. If necessary, I lightly over- cast the edges of the hole to the good material with very fine thread, then I slip the hoop under the machine needle and darn by sewing back and forth, using the fine thread here too. For mending very sheer white gar- ments, laces, handkerchiefs, or table linen, I use Battenberg thread No. 1000. When the stitching is carefully done and parallel to the threads in the material to be mended, this makes a darn almost impossible to detect. I make folds of goods of uniform width for binding or trimming by a very simple contrivance: I plate down the flap on an envelope, cut off one end of the envelope, then cut off one corner at the opposite end in a three- cornered piece so the opening will be about an eighth of an inch longer than I want the width of the fold. Next I cut my material in long lengths, on the straight or bins, ac- cording to the purpose it is to serve, one-half of an inch wider than the fold is to be, and new the lengths together, end to end. One end of the cloth is then pulled through the en- velope and out through the mall " can't but your being with than awful lions Jim."
