The Best Thing Yet
A GREAT STRIDE

OVER
The ordinary modes of
GARMENT CUTTING
Silencing Directors !
Assuring q Neat and
PERFECT FIT TO ALL!
The nature of this in
vcntion consists in its
having a Stationary Pat
tern, (exact in shapc,) on
which are indicated all
the lines and angles nee
essary for cutting a gar
ment, as well a series of
graduated scales with
numbers, each scale on
the patterns being letter
ed, so as to correspond
with the letters Mt the
notches on the ruler, by
the application of which
the patterns are enlarged,
thus enabling any one to
cut from a single pattern,
whose angles and distan-
ces are arranged for Il
person of the smallest
size, a garment suited to
and that will fit a person
ofthe largest proportion
This system is so sim
pie ard easy to be under
stood that any child that
knows its figures can use
it, and ten INMATES time is
SufllClcnt TO thoroughly
explain it to any one.
| Having the right in
said invention for the
counties of ALLEGANY

we are prepared to sell
Family Rights at a lotc
price, either through our
