National Garment Gutter is a chart OF

system is the same IN plan OF work as
those used by tailors in cutting mems
clothing only so simplifed that any
one can readily learn to use it. But
unlike the tailors system which cut
mems clothing only the National Gar
ment Gutter is used in cutting ladies'
and children's clothing and cuts wraps,
drapery and undertaking with ~
much accuracy as it cuts coats or
dresses and unlike the tailors systems
in that 1t can be readily learned by
any one and correctly usec by the PEG.
pie in their general work. The Ma.
tionaI Garment Cutter is as much
needed as the sewing machine and
when once used will be regarded as an
indispensable article.

by the Garment Cutter are unequaled
and the dressmaker that wants to do
the best work can't afford to be with

produced that can be obtained. Fv.
