Oae. la T.rtrj Womsa'a Hwb, It la Xaw Ccd by Old Ladles Oaly. The darning nccdlo may almost be called a thing of tho past now," sighed an old lady, ua sho aat before a genuine log Arc in the parlor of a very old-fashioned house in Yonkcra, look ing for holes that 'she was not particu larly anxious to find in a great pile of stockings that filled a basket beside her. "Beyond mytelf and 'half a dozen others who meet twice a week and call ourselves Tho Old Ladies Darning Society,' I don't know of any ono in Westchester County who uses the noodle, or even knows how to use it. Darned stockings are looked upon as relics of barbarism to-day, I be lieve, and peoplo object to what thoy call 'patches which, they say, hurt their foot Aro the feet, then, moro tender than they wcro sixty years ago when I was a girl, and u knowledge of darning was an important part of a young lady's education? I don't think bo. But I suppose tho clumsy way in which a hole in a stockiug is mended now (usually with a plain sewing needlo and hard cotton thread), has justly earned for it the name of patch work. Perhaps the jagged hole and direct contact between the foot and tho shoe is proferable. "But this awkward mending must not bo confused with darning. The wool used in the old-faahionod repairing is generally much softer than tho ma terial of which tho average stocking is made. As you sec. I still darn the holes in nil tho family stockings, and my husband and boys say that the spots whero my needle has been work ing aro tho only really comfortable parts of their hosiery. I don't know whether this is a very dcsirablo state of affairs, but at least it shows that skillful darning and careless patching aro different things. "In days of old. when no lady con sidered darning an undignified occupa tion, stockings wcro manufactured of very much softer and finor material than thoy aro made of now, and the wool with which a holo was darned was, as nearly as possible, of the same consistency, so that the wearer, no matter how sensitive his feet might be, could not detect tho presence of a foreign body at his heel or undejr his sole. A good old wool stocking is far more comfortable than a new one, and elderly gentlemen my father, for ex amplebelieved that hosiery was never quite beyond tho reach of the darning needle. I bavo darned a stocking so often that not a shred of tho old material remained. Tho wholo piece was my own make, and com posed entirely of darning wool. "At that time, too, now stockings were very expensive, and that might have been an additional reason why people clung so persistently to their old ones; but now stockings, though of a very inferior grade, are so cheap that it Is considered hardly worth while to wash an old pair, and when I ask for a darning needle at a millinery store I am frequently told: We don't keep thorn.
