Application and December so, 1191s. serial No. 139,864.

i general contour shown in Fig. 2, that is to s'ay, it has an upper straight section 12, cut on a sli htly oblique line relative to the straight ine of the goods, and below that an outwardly curving part 13, and'below that:

a slight indentation 14, and below that another straight section 15, somewhat more oblique than the-.section 12. The other half of the'back is iii-al1 respects the saine as that just described except that being for the other side of the back, the relativepositions of the edges will be reversed. The two parts of the back are seemed together aloiigthe section 12 on the line 16, shown in Fig.

17, see Fig. 3, is one of the liaps for the front, there being one flap foi-each hell of the front. They are preferably made ot' the same materiales the front and backend of the contour shown. The curved margins. 18

of'these flaps are stitched respectivelyl to` the margins 6 of the front fOrming'the seam 25, as shown in Fig. 5. The upper margins 19 of the flaps are stitched to the right, and left respectively of the front' at the apex of the cut out portion thereof; For the vsake of clearness in illustration but one flap is shown in Fig. 1. Both. are shown in 5.

-20, see Fig. 4, is the reinforce for one half of the back and it is applied thereto as shown in dotted lines in Fig. 2, its edge 21 paralleling the edge 15 and its side margins being stitched to the back 7 and, its recess 23 coinciding with the recess 14.

It will ofcourse be lunderstood that there lw-ill be a similar reinforce for the -other half of the backend also that the flaps'l' will each f be reinforced by having their thickness doubled throughout 'g their entire area, as is usual in garments of` this class. These-various reinforces, while desirable,l

may be omitted. l The assembling of the garment is as fol- O'Ws:

As statedabove, the edges 12 are stitchedV together to form a whole back, and the edges 10 of the back 7 are stitchedto the edges 4 of the front 1 to forni the side seams 24 shown in Figs. 5 and 6, the edges 18 of the flaps l? are stitched to the right'and leftmargins 6 respectively of the cut out por?- tion ofthe front 1, it being understood that there will be four of these aps, two super`-.

posed upon one another for each side of the front, to act as a reinforce. The margins (i. and at their appel' end are stitehed respeetively to opprhite sides'olthe hack for a .Short dixtanee and thns alford perfect elos'ule for the rear of the garment and also perfeel tit. resulting. as in .the front, in exl-reine eoinfort for the wearer'.

lt will he ol ions to those who are familiar with sneh matters that inodilieations may he made in the. details of the constr'ln tion ahove leserihed and illustrated without departingr from the essentials of the invention. We therefore do not liniit ourselves loithealetails shown 'and deserihed.
