IN THE DOMAIN OF WOMAN.


and II was in helping out or supplying in
genuity to these that the patterns earned
their popularity. One complete set con-
tains thirty-two patterns and comprises
everything that could be thought Of in a
baby's outfit. from a beautiful christening
robe to a cunning little moccasin.
The patterns are sent for the most part
through the mail, and many OF them to
far-away spote. for the further away from
a large city the more diffcult It becomes
to get r~eady-made clothing at a reasonable
price for infants and young children. The
correspondence OF the nrm has been a very
interesting feature Of the undertaking.
Nearly all the letters have a decided per-
sonal flavor, as the fond young mothers
can not restrain the expression Of their
interest in the particular baby for whom
they want patterns. One letter read:
Dear - -, / have a beautiful big
boy. 4 months old. He has blue eyes and
lovely curly hair. and go much Of It. My
friends all say he looks like me, but I
think he is the picture OF his father. l

Such letters are much enjoyed by the
recipient, and in sending the patterns she
is very apt to congratulate the mother and
show appreciation of the superior claims
of each baby.
Another department Of the work, even
more original than the actual wearing APP
parel Of the child, is a set of nursery
articles, including even a bath tub. These
are in the form OF paper patterns. from
which can be cut in suitable materials the
various articles mentioned.
Patterns for dolls clothes are also made
which delight the heart of the miniature
mothers, and toys in the form of stuffed
animals can be made at home from the
patterns and directions supplied. These
Canton flannel pigs and eiderdown sheep
can be made by any little girl for her
