If your Corset is not comfortable and does
not give you the exact lines you would have,
perhaps it is Bien Jolie "Grecian- Treco' you
need-the Corset that gives the natural ''un-
corseted" effect so much desired this season.
The peculiar knitted fabric of which "GRE-
CIAN-TRECO" COrsets are made took longer
to perfect than any other corset fabric ever
produced The ''GRECIAN-T RECO" has
stirred up more interest and has taken
quicker than any other corset produced in
many years.
This soft, plant, homeless, knitted corset is
the latest creation in corsetry. It lends itself
to the willowy, clinging draped gowns of the
seasons styles, and produces the natural ''un-
cOrseted" effect.
When you wear the GRECIAN-TRECO Cor
set you can readily guide your figure into the
natural, graceful supple lines so much adj
mired in to-day's fashions style for every
figure.

demonstrator study the lines of your figure
