Opinion is divided
as to the part played
by the eyes hair and
teeth in woman’s
beauty. All agree
however that noth-
ing adds so much to
women’s beauty as a
graceful and symmet-
rical form and it is to
bo regretted that
many elegant forms
are ruined by ill shap-
ed corsets.
The poetry o f
motion —of dreamy
pose and sylph-like
step cannot be found
where the corset is
ill-fitted or uncom-
fortable.
Realizing the
above fact we have
taken pains to re-
volutionize and re-
model our entire cor-
set department
throwing out and sell-
ing off at any price
unworthy shapes and

rons a line of goods
