These two corsets have held and main
tanned the supremacy in the American
market for several years over all other
makes, and ladies who have tried them
once are loud in their praises, having at
last been suited with a corset that fits.
as a corset ought to fit, and whose lines
conform to the natural grace and beauty
of the figure. We carry the largest and
most complete stock of the "R & G."
and "W. B." cOrsets in the city and
show them in extra long, medium and
