GOODYEAR ON GUM-ELASTIC. 



BATHING CAPS 



Are made of drapery or tissue. These fabrics are very suit- 

 able, and highly approved of for this purpose ; the drapery, on 

 account of its elasticity, and both on account of their water- 

 proof quality and cheapness. They are shirred around the edge 

 with an elastic cord. See plate , figs. 15 and 16.
