She selected a flannelette nightgown from a deep drawer marked: "Nightgowns and petticoats—Women's."

Stupes or hot fomentations are cloths, preferably of flannel or flannelette, wrung out of boiling water and applied to the skin.

Children's clothing should never be made of flannelette, it is so liable to take fire if the child approaches the grate.

Flannelette is made of cotton, so it is not warm like wool, and it catches fire easily, as cotton-wool does.
