A Tradition insists that corsets were
first invented by brutal butcher of the
thirteenth century, as punishment for his
wife. She was very loquaclous, and find
ing nothing wo'd cure her, he put pair
of stays on her, in order to take away her
breath, and SO prevent her, as he thought,
from talking. This cruel punishment was
inflicted by other heartless husbands, till
at last there was scarcely wife in all
London who was not condemned to the
like inf1iction. The punishment became
SO universal at last that the ladies in their
defence made a fashion of it, and SO it
has continued to the present dav.
