COrsets Made OF Bark.

The bayaderes of India, who possess
the most.perfect figures of any women
ofany country on earth, have much
more healthful and charming de, ice
than any Europeans. Their corsets
are formed out of the bark of a NADIA
gascar tree, on principle which per-
mits them every freedom of movement
in breathing and in any form of exer-
else. These are wonderful produc-
tions of ingenuity. The color resem-
bles the skin to remarkable degree,
and the material is SO fine that the
most delicate touch will hardly distln-
guish it from human flesh. Once made
these corsets are seldom removed, the
bayaderes even sleeping IN them.
They thus preserve astonishiugly
beautiful figures to an advanced age,
without pain or discomfort to them
selves.
