A Little Corset Chat.

Any woman having corset trouble should try Spirella. The question of figure is fully as important as that of color. Women are now realizing this fact as never beforei A woman in her natural form may have a faulty figure, and yet in full dress

have the form of a Venus. This trans figuration is wrought largely by the corset But not by a cheap corset as French models and good materials cost money. One may have an expert dressmaker, and excellent taste as to colors and materials, but unless she wears a corset adapted to her figure, she will not have attained the desired effect The primary mission of the corset is to conceal angularities and in their place present lines "and curves of beauty. This is where the art of the corsetiere comes Into play.' ‘' Until recently all the corset salesman wanted to . know when asked for a corset was the circumference of the woman’s waist. The hips and bust were Ignored entirely, and whether tire lady was tall or short made no difference. This is rapidly changing. A corset now is expected to fit. And still more it is expected to be comfortable. Have your measure taken privately in your own home and have a corset made expressly for you. MRS. G. W. GOFF, Corsetiere.
