NEW  DRESSES  FROM  OLD  ONES, 
“I  have  just  made  a  new  dress  for  street  wear.” 
writes  Jean  Hunt,  In  the  Housekeeper ,  “out  of  what 
was  once  a  mode  colored  travelling  suit.  The  dress 
was  rather  the  worse  for  wear,  but  I  carefully  ripped 
it  up,  washed,  and  dyed  It  navy  blue  with  Diamond 
dyes.  After  careful  pressing  the  goods  were  like  new. 
“I  made  It  up  with  new  dress  lining,  bones,  and 
braid,  and  the  whole  cost  was  only  one  dollar  and 
sixty  cents.  Any  woman  can  do  as  well  if  she  uses 
the  Diamond  dyes.  I  have  used  many  of  their  colors, 
and  If  the  goods  are  properly  washed  after  dyeing, 
they  will  not  crack  a  particle.  These  dyes  are  fast 
colors,  and  I  have  found  them  so  from  years  of 
experience.  ’  '—A  dv.
