To ascertain the size in inches of parts proportioned to the seat measure, viz:—the thigh, knee, calf, bottom of knee pants and fork points, the size of seat being known,. a scale is selected on Table of Width to correspond, say thirty inches seat, and the Width Scale is placed on the line extending out of 30 on the Table, in the same manner as directed for the breast scale. Again refer to the Column of Parts, and where the same number of parts on the Table of Width crosses the Width Scale, will be the size in inches of each part, which in this case for a thirty inch seat will be, thigh 165/& inches, knee 125/8, calf 10j^, fork points 4^ inches. For size of thigh two parts have to be-added to the Table of Width.

The formula condensed will then be:

Breast, . . . 27 inches.

Scale, . . 27 size.

Scye, 16 ]/ 2 parts or \%yi inches.

Fist, 11 u 8^

Wrist, 7 Neck, 14%:
