be said of the american Lady, as far as re-
suits concerned. But, of course, $I.oo to
$500 Corsets are not $500 to $500 Corsets.
Nine. Ruppert's advice is to wear "the Lyra,
but recommends the american Lady, as the
best lower priced substitute
For as little as ST 90 are ten superb mod
els for slender, average and stout figures. The
word superb is used Observation-Disclosures the
lines of these corsets are all the word implies
At S1.5o are ten models, assuring a cor
rect style for every phase of form. With the
right corset and an expert who knows your
requirements, the visitor need have no qualms
At $500 are eight models, any one OF
which, if adjusted to figure for it, would give
the most hypercritical modiste no chance Of
complaint.
At $500 are five models that should be
asked for by ladies who have been paying as
much as $500 for their corsets An agree
able surprise is promised.
