Stone's new superlative trouser system, based upon a scientific, sure and simple method; . ze of the thigh in a normal figure is ^iof the seat measure, which, for a 36 seat, will be 22^inches; for a 40 seat, 25 inches, and a 46 seat, 2834^inches. These proportions hold good only in youngmen and athletes. The middle aged as well as old menwho do not get any exercise to strengthen the musculardevelopment of the thighs, fall below this standard,and it is here where the cutter will have to use an extrathigh measure, and in drafting compromise and use thedifference of the actual and the proportiona

Diagram ( illus-trates this form where the two legs are set apart ontothe body, leaving a space of from one to two inchesbetween the two legs, as from i to 2. In this form thethighs must be reduced on the inside so as to give acurve on both the front and backpart, as from T to S and V to S; be sure to reduce the thigh on the in-side with a short, sharp curve, if you want the inseam K. DIAGRAM A. to hang straight. Some cutters imagine that by cuttinga straight inseam for all shapes the trouser leg will hang
