.. Every applicant for spacs in the woman's
building will have space assigned tn her by the
secretary of the board of lady managers if her
article is marked of the first order Of merit in
its class. Articles OF the second order of merit
will very often be quite eligible to place in the
general departments of the exposition.
s. The advisory committees are admoniShed
to bear in mind the limit of space in the
woman's building, which necessarily forbids the
acceptance of a great number of articles; there
fore, (, r the frst order Of merit the standard
must be very high.
4. Advisory committees should observe the
following rules: In fine arts copies will not be
admitted. In embroderies, only original designs
viii be admitted; stamped patterns will be
strictly excluded. In the library only books of
scientific, historical and literary value will be
received. Magazines and press articles of the
women writers OF each state and territory
may be bound together and placed in this
library, forming complete and attractive
volumes upon the subject matter contained
therein. In patents only drawings and photo
graphs will be allowed, except in rare ca ses of
peculiar value when work ng models will be
admitted. The exhibitor must be the manu-
facturer or tie producer OF the article exhibited,
except in the case of the loan and retrospective
exhibit
Pt0uided. That nothing in these rules be con-
strued to prevent the final expert committee
appointed by the president Of the board OF lady
from rejecting any or all articles
passed by the advisory committees of the sew
eral states and territories.
For this information thanks are due to
Mrs. Charles IL. Olmstead of this city. who,
