Ultraviolet observations of the symbiotic nova HM Sge were obtained from the International Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE) through the interval from 1980 - 1992. Three line profiles demonstrating the variations of some emission lines at different dates are presented. We determined the reddening of HM Sge from the 2200 Å absorption feature; the estimated value is E(B - V ) = 0:34 ± 0.02. We studied CIV at 1550 Å, He II 1640 Å, and CIII] at 1909 Å produced in the wind from the hot star. The line flux variations at different dates could be explained in terms of the variations of temperature in the emitting region as a result of mass loss variations. The IUE observations can be explained by the models of Girard & Willson (1987); Formiggini et al. (1995).
