TO SPEAK of some ont aa measur

slipshod methods, an on certain, care
less, baphaxard way of doing anything.
Tbt phrase Is a relic of the old cus
tom of measuring material by the
length of the thumb. Aa a matter of
fact, ia almost any workroom today
eoamatrcoao of the old school can
bt found who, for lack of a tape meus
use or out of force of habit will
take measurement by the length of
their fingers.
, Nowadays It Is the third linger, bow
aver, rather than the thumb, that is
'inott "popular for tht purpose, aud a
seamstress who waa seen to use this
old-fashioned onlt of measurement aa
swered a remark that thla could not
be very exact with proof that matt
rial held by her third finger and meas
ured back as fsr aa tht knocklt meas
ured exactly one-eighth of a yard. In
thla Instance, therefore, "by rule of
thumb" was not baphaxard or merely
approximate, as It Is likely to bt la
taoet cases, and aa it Is applied ka the
