52 LADIES ON HOESEBACK. 



back of the collar and one at either end is 

 much to be deprecated. Frequently one of 

 these pins becomes undone, and then the 

 discomfort is incalculable, especially if, as 

 often occurs, you are out for a long day, and 

 nobody happens to be able to accommodate 

 you with another. 



Pinning cuffs is also a reprehensible habit, 

 for the reason just stated. Two or three little 

 stitches where they will not show, upon the 

 inner side of the sleeve, will hold the cuff 

 securely in its place and prevent it turning 

 round or slipping up or down, any of which 

 will be calculated to cause discomfort to the 

 rider. 



It is not a bad method, either, to stitch a 

 small button at the back of the neck of the 

 jacket, upon the inner side, upon which the 

 collar can be secured, fastening the cuffs in 

 the same manner to buttons attached to the 

 inner portion of each sleeve. In short, 

 anything in the shape of a device which will 

 check the unseemlyhabit of using a multiphcity 

 of pins, may be regarded as a welcome innova- 

 tion, and at once adopted.
