It's a fact, women are not dancing
in corsets any more, that is they are
not doing it In New York City and no
| less an authority than the Dry Goods
Economist is responsible for the fol-
| owing statement: " Check your hat
coat and corset at the door, is the
| latest adjuration of the uniformed
bandits of the New York hotel cloak
rooms.
Special corsets to allow freedom of
! movement were adopted when the
dance craze brought out steps neces-
| stating unhampered action. But even
these did not answer the purpose So
nately built as not to need restraining
| encasements are discarding them on
the dance floor-or rather, before
venturing on it. If mama is con-
servative and inspects the semi-cloth-
| ing outfit before it gets out of the
| house, what matter? The corset she
| insists on can be and is checked.
| Which accounts for the increase in
sales of novelty garters. They are not
| doing without stockings-yet."
