PRACTICAL HINTS FOR HARD TJMKS
“What man has done, man may do.”
« No. Ill—CLOTHING.
liesides the garment of fig leaves, exteraporited
by our guilty parents in the garden ot Kden, the
first suit of clothing known on earth was made
by dvine suggestion ot skins, taken probably from
the bodies of beasts slain in sacrifice. From that
day to the present the clothing of the race has ex
hibited every conceivable variety, both as to iorm
and material, from the most simple to the most
fantastic.
1. liobes uj iSkins.—The costly robes of er
mine, worn formerly by the high dignitaries ot
the English bench, were not more comfortable
than would be a similar robe made from the skins
of the American hare, or of other furred animals.
Indeed, we occasionally meet even now with a
person wearing a most enviable vest of otter -ikin,
with its jich coating of fur.
What more tasteful tippet tor the shoulders of
either matron or maiden can be devised than one
made from the skins of the small striped sqiriel,
unless it may be one made from the skins of some
of our wild fowl, with the glossy feathers attach
ed, sewed tinnly to a base of strengthening cloth?
It is within the memory of many that garments
of prepared deer skin were not at all uncommon,
and it is also recollected that ol all suits theoe
were the most enduring.
Robes of sheep skin, such as were worn by the
shepherds who heard the angels’ songs upon the
hill-sides of liethlohem, are yet to be seen as the
ordinary clothing of a similar class in that coun
try of changeless habits. Why should garments
ol like character be disdained by our suffering
poor, in these times when necessity should over
ride fashion?
2. Knitted Garments.—The crochet (or hook
ed) needle gives such rapid results iu skififul
hands, that it is surprising we do not see more of
its products iu common use. For coarse work,
its advantage over the common knitting needles
is as ten to one. In the articles of male attire
(the ladies will pardon my non-intrusion into the
sacred domain of the toilet and the bureau) the
crochet needle would be found superlatively u.se-
ful in furnishing the country with gloves, socks
and stockings, (with the heel and toe knitted in
the ordinary way, to avoid the rough knot;^,)
cravats, scarfs tor the ears and neck, undershirts
and drawers, and what would be an exceedingly
great comfort to our soldiers ou night duty, a
helmet of iroolen yarn, made to protect the head,
ears, chin and neck, and worn under the military
cap.
8. U It urn.—The scarcity of wool com
pels us to look around for substitutes. The warm
est pair of gloves evei worn by the writer was
made of rabbit fur, carded and spun with cotton.
The negro clothes, manufactured for us by our
Yankee friends in former years, were more or
less intermixed with eow hair. The idea may
be useful.
If all the scraps of tattered blankets and of
worn out carpets that are now left to decay on
evey square mile of these Confederate States, (to^
say nothing of the icool locked iiy in matrescs)
were picked to pieces and carded with cotton
they would probably suffice to fumiaih more than
hull the socks now needed by our soldiers. True,
the staple will be found short and crisp, and pro
bably the barbs of the wool would be worn smooth,
but these defects will be all met and remedied in
part by mixing the wool with cotton.
4. Spinning Thread or Yarn.—When facto
ries fail to supply the demand, and spinning
wheels cannot be had, and even when cards are
beyond reach, there is yet a resource to be had in
this instrument used before either factories or
spinning wheels were known, and mentioned by
Solomon in his last chapter of the Jiook of Pro
verbs, where, in his graphic picture ot the vir
tuous woman, he says, “bhe layeth her hands to
the spindle and her hands hold the distaj}'.” The
simple process to which he alludus, and which
was then the only mode of spinning, was this:
The wool, flax, or cotton was loo.sely distributed
over a small branching rod or leafless bush, Irom
which it was fed to the sj)indle; aud this last (^of
steel, like the spindles ol our ordinary spinning
wheels, or of tough hard wood,) was loaded near
the blunt end with a disk of metal or a ball of
hardened clay, aud was twirled by the lingers
like a child’s chincopin or button with a straw
stuck through it. The revolutions of this spindle
accomplished the twisting of the thread, as we do
now by the more rapid and convenient instrumen
tality of the wheel or the throstle. Slow as the
process may be, it can be made to give excellent
thread and yarn, which may be far more econo
mical than the now costly iianks of the factory.
Many years .since there was a poor person in the
neighborhood of Savannah who plied one ot the
instruments just de.scribcd, with surprising dex
terity and SUCCC.SS. It can be done again.
f). Wt aiiuij. — It has been conjectured by some
of the learned th.at the art of weaving preceded
that of spinning, “the first cloth being what we
now call m-jttimj, that is, made by weaving to
gether the shreds of bark, or fibrous parts ol
plants,” also hair, rushes, &e. Many a negro’s
bed has been made more comfortable in winter,
by the addition of a coverlet ol woven bark, such
as is seen in certain imported sacks. No tree of
India or China affords shreds better suited tor
such weaving than the Wahoo abounding in our
swamps. Were the idea once started among our
negroes, no doubt their ready ingenuity would
produce many a useful result.
C) (^hiilted (rannvnts.—Any thick .stuff may
be made .suitable for winter u.se, by doubling and
encl>)sing between the two surfaces a spongy stra
tum of cotton batting, wool, or down. This last
lUfy be obtained in quantity by .stripi^iug from
the part ot the feather next to Jte skin ol all our
iarge bird?, such as turkeys, gee.se, barn-door
fo'vls, &c. I’his down should be inserted in each
quilted square, as .soon as three sides have been
produced by the needle. 7ha xcurmth o/ such a
garment can be hnoicn only hy experience. It
is exceedingly h'ght as well as warm. Would
that each of our boys who shiver in the bleak val-
levs of Virginia had the trial of one.'
*7. tSubstitute for Socks.—In Galton’s “Art of
Tnavel” (an English work containing many use
ful hints) it is iatin'iated th'at in some respects a
fot>t square of soft cloth is mure pleasant to the
fo(‘t than a sock. To wear it, he sa.ys the fi>ot
must be placed on one ot the diagonals, the eorn-
ers being toward the toe, heel, and side.*; the
corners at the si^es are to be first folded over the
instep, then the cover at the toe.s; lastly, the foot
is to be carefully inserted in the shoe, so aa to
leave no wrmkle, tor every wrinkle will raise a
“Socks ajn>ilar to h® adds, bul
