Tms is a very pretty and seasonable article, and one which will be quite fashionable this spring. The material is black silk. For a young Miss, from ten to fourteen, this basquine is par ticularly suitable. The following diagram will show how the basqnine is to be cutout. N0. 1. HALF or Fnos'r.

No. 2. HALF or BACK. No. 8. Ham 0! Suanva.

N0. 4. SIDE-PIECE UNDER Ann. It is this last piece, which forms the side of the garment, and is inserted between the front and back, which gives to the basquine that graceful fullness, that is one of its principal recommendations.

The sizes of the various pieces are marked, in inches, on the diagram. It is best to cut the pattern ﬁrst in paper, according to the size here given, and then enlarge, or reduce it, till it ﬁts. The size we give will ﬁt most girls of twelve years of age. We give this, in answer to a request from a subscriber. We are always ready, in this de partment, to give patterns such as our friends

may desire. Our wish is to make this feature of "Peterson" unrivaled.
