tions that there can be no duplication of
the delays experienced with the purchase
of the old water plant by the city.

Wear a Redfern Corset
and Acquire the New Figure
Of course you want the new figure, not only
because it is graceful, feminine and altogether
charming, but because the new fashions de
mand it.
In Paris, where they originated, they were modeled
over a figure having a smaUer waist, with a pretty nat
ural curve at the sides, an erect carriage, and m flmi,
rounded bast line this we call the "new fjnre," be
cause it is such a change from the figure that has been
fashionable the past two seasons.
The new Iledfern Models are designed to mould the
flesh into these new lines, and hold It la place, thug
gradually reshaping the figure. , -
But this doe not interfere in the
least with their comfort and flexibil
ity, as you will realize upon wear'
ing one . ' -
