makes the strongest appeal to men.
This model is thoroughly satisfactory
from that standpoint as we'll as from
others. The pajamas are very easy
to make and even the amateur need
not hesitate to attempt the task. The

only the two leg seams and the one
that joins the portions at the center
back. The trousers are drawn up 10

inserted in a casing The model is
suitable for flannel, outing cloth,
