 CORGETS .~
 The corset of today is the result sof the determination of the manufacturers to devise corset that the woman wants, for women do know just what they want, and corset is only successful when 1t IS the right corset to. the iu-, dividual figure.
 The corset should be worn sufficiently large to permit the wearer to sit ill comfort. The corsets called for the most extensively is the one with a medium. high bust, slight curve to the waistline, the skirt modified in length with a little more roundness to the hip, but the back maintaining the straight effect. = ts5'
 The use of firm material and moderate boning is employed. Flesh color and deep pink are favorites even in the con servative corsets. Science has proven that the support of firm, comfortable corset IS an aid to the preservation of health. Broche IS the leader in materials. Many attractive styles, both in cotton land silk, besides combinations of cotton and silk, are shown. 7s 7@"1s' r., There are mole1s, for every use, ten- his, golfing, bathing, dancing, horse back riding, etc. The lace-in-front corsets find new devotees every day.
 [hey are considered of an especialvalue for developing youthful figures, because the pose of a growing girl. is rendered more correct, the hips being thrown back
 in their natural position, and the chest raised so that the body is carried in |correct balance. ,s 4S ;

BRASSIERRES

Brassierres are more in favor than ever. The new styles of bust confners include Tricot, silk jersey, crepe de Chine, net and various other fabrics. The wearing of the brassierres presents a break at the junction of the bustline. A bad fitting brassierre can accentuate the ridge at the top of the corset just as a good one hides many defects. A1l- over laces are featured in combination with linen and fancy silk material. There are elaborate models of all-oyer em- broidery finished with insertion aand edging. x<T :, :.
