No article in our estimation is so important or has
been much needed to give graceful and elegant form
to lady's dress, skirt which will in every particular
and without serious objections accomplish this desirable
object. To produce such article commenced
than since, experimenting, and made almost every
thing that could be imagined and used every article
knowa 70 Obtain the desired elasticity and submitted
experiment to the judgement of ladies competent TO form
opinion upon such article. We found that all kinds
Of sarched goods and cotton cord cotton wire cord
is called could not be used, because when pressed out
Of their proper shape they would not that shape
In other words. they would remain in the position
shapethe might under any circumstances be pressed
into Upon the application Of Whalebone found that
It required very careiuy-seleced quail iy that the
size, length, their position in the skirt and in fact all its
proportions particularly important We were
ccssful in producing Bone Skirt which nearly
every objection, and was pronounced by the best Judges
could find perfectly adapted the wants of the la
dies. As we advertised them for SALE (and
the first to do it. the demand for the Seamless
Whalebone Skirt became much greater than our ma.
chnery was able to supply that sewers and sewing ma
chimes we're put into operation and the market flooded
with goods Of different materials and put together with
any regard size form, confines any other OBJ
jeci, should suppose, but 10 sell. And these
all called Whalebone Skirts
In consequence of this multiplicity of kinds and styles
propose few considerations, WHICH CANNOT BE
APPLIED TO ANY OTHER GOODS why the SEAM
LESS WHALEBONE SKIRT is superior to any and all
other kinds and the only article which equally adapted
to the paor the street and the crowd To say nothing
experience in bringing the article to perfection, and
the unanimous appreciation nf the ladies from the time
first offered them for sale call particular attention
carefully selected and prepared by direction
from our actual experiences CLOTH which is light and
strong. is expressly for this purpose-the aper
lures, wells for the bones and cords form
ed in the CLOTH which renders them SEAMLESS, that
dies will not be annoyed by stitches breaking and bones
flying out they certainly do in the se@ed Skirts rom
the constant pressure of the bones upon them.
The last and greatest improvement made and the only
objection to has been to obtan article with
sufficient stiffness and elasticity, and at the time
yielding and plisble to keep the dress in proper shape
below the bones. To accomplish this object have this
successfully introduced series of elastic cords
made from the only thing that be produced, which
has this desirable elasticity and will recover and keepits
proper place when pressed out of shape This cord is
made expressly for our goods and so twisted in manu-
featuring that they will not roll curl up when washed
In fact present article the nearest perfect every
Particular that can be found.
We prepared to supply all who wish for the best
and from past experience and by good judges have been
pronounced the most desirable goods in the market The
public are cautioned against worthless limitations.
Every genuine article is stamped Holiness Improved
Seamless Whalebone Skirt; and may be found by the
trade in the hands of many Of the largest obbng houses
