There's a Sweater On the Girl
AND it will be a smarter and handsomer style than she
has ever worn, if it is selected from the new models
that have just come in. Belts, pockets, collars, seem simple,

The Charm of Youth Belongs to Her
Who Wears Warner's Corsets
TlHE grace, the suppleness, the ease of
' motion and the softness of line all
the envied attributes of youth and health
and loveliness, can be achieved by the wo
man who cares for her body as she cares
for her mind, with intelligence and contin
ued refreshment. ' '
Warner's Rust-Proof Corsets
can contribute by guiding body lines to
the sweeping curves and grace that should
be theirs; by coercing the unwieldy figure
to proportions pleasing and natural ; by re
taining the slim lines perhaps already hers,
and all this easily and with benefit to the
health.
New models in these excellent corsets
are now being shown. They are fashion
able in the last degree, and guaranteed to
wear. You are invited to see them.
