SHORT BONES IN coRsETs.

lit is interesting to know that while
corsets are longer, the bones in them
are shorter. They go over a part Of
the hip, but do not run DOWN to the
end of the corset. These long bones
were found disastrous, is they were
constantly breaking or bending and
pushing the corset into a curve below
the waist.
Now the bones stop short enough
to prevent ~breakage, and the coutille
is strapped and stitched and fitted to
the figure for the rest of the length.

tolerating this vicious. immoral and Grim
inal business is, from a civic, moral or
