How can the BEST patterns be
sold Tor 10 cents when IS cents is
charged for all others?
The price at which a pattern can be
profltably sold is determined by the
QUANTITY sold. The cost of tissue
paper, the cost Of cutting and folding.
etc, is practically The same in the pro
ductlon Of all patterns, from the poor
est to the best The cost of the mod
els from which they are Cit should be
about the same.
Now, the pro rata cost OF each model
has to be added to the cost OF the fin
'shed pattern; therefore, the larger the
number OF patterns sold the smaller
is the tax on each Of the models. Thus.
where only, say 10000, OF a pattern
arc sold, the pro rata model tax is ten
times greater than where 1OO, 900 are
sold.
May Manton Patterns sell in suf-
fclent quantities to render it prohta-
bic to price them all at 10 cents each
Other pattern manufacturers say they
cannot afford to sell theirs i6r less than
IS cents. Either they do not sell a
sufficient number or they tax the
public too much
BE that as it may, the May Manton
Pattern Co, for the reasons stated
above, can, and docs, and will con
t'nuc to sell the BEST pattern on the
market at the uniform price
Zoe EACH.
They believe that it is only Just and
right that the discriminating public
who SO literally patronize them should
share all the advantages accruing from
their own generous patronage. That
is why those who use May Manton
Patterns get the BEST at onc-third
less than the price universally charged
for others

MAY MANT0N'S PATTERNS
READ THIS, PLEASE.

Why is the MAY Manton. the
most popular PATTERN
Because it is the most reliable, tie
most economical, and we think the
public believe it to be at all times the
most thoroughly up-to-date.
Why is it the most reliable and the
most economical?
Because it is, in every case, cut from
an accurately graded model. Because
II makes no prctense at a m-allow-
ance, which IS an absurdity. Because
it does not obliteratc the true bastine
lire, as is always, and unavoidably,
the case with a pattern, cut for the mil
lion, on which pretended seam allow
ancc is made; and because, therefore.
It does not require the exercise Of ex-
pert ingenuity and necessitate the
waste o. material in the effort TO put
the garment together
Why is a seam allowance on a pat
fern an aosurdityI
a corrcct seam allowance cannot be
reckoncd Tor a pattern when the tex
ture OF the goods TO be cut is not
known. One lady may purchase a
pattern FOR close-Wovcn material. re-
curing a very narrow scam; another
may purchase the same pattern for
goods Of flimsy texture, that needs
very wide T,-allowancc. 1t is alb
surd to suppose that the same pattern
will do for both. 1t is not likely to
suit either, and the drcssmaker must
labor to correct the mistakes caused
by the pattern, and thank herself, not
the pattern, if she succeeds.
