In this work also the ladies can take a very effective hand, and numbers     have done so; for there is no doubt that a woman’s taste and lightness of     touch enables her in some branches of taxidermy to far exceed the average     man. Especially in the manipulation of frail skins and delicate feathers,     in bird taxidermy, is this so.
