It stands “to reason that hundreds of thousands of women would never keep on wearing this corset if it had not exactly satis- fied their individual needs. 7 = Tn this“statement we will-give the reasons why the Nemo Self-Reducing Corset has accomplished such great results, = pies : ’ —In-the last. statement we explained how the Nemo Self- Reducing Corset reduces the figure of the stout woman, how it is comfortable to wear and economical to buy, an how it gives health and style to the wearer, —Fhe—“‘Nemo-—Self-Reducing Idea” was_in-_ vented-by tts nine—years—ago, It was-embodied in the _ Original Self-Reducing Corset, of which 2,000,000 pairs were sold in eight years, About a year ago we added four new patented features— The Improved Self - Reducing Strap The Relief Strap, The Graduated Front Steel The Double_Garter Attachment —each one adding, in its own particular way, to the perfect re- sult obtained by the New Nemo Self-Reducing Corset. i This Corset greatly improves the figure of the stout woman, i and the change in the form is so apparent that her skirt has to \\\ be taken in over the abdomen, three or four inches, when wear- v ing the corset the first time, Dressmakers recommend it because it makes a satisfactory foundation for a well-fitting gown. The patented features of the Nemo Sclf-Reducing Corsct alone can accomplish such wonderful resalts, | The ‘Self-Reducing Relief Strap” reduces and sypports the lower part of the abdo- | | men and shapes the accumulated flesh below the corset intosyimmetrical lines, This strap is attached to the “Graduated Front Steel” and held down by the ‘‘Double Garter Attach- ment.” It produces a feeling of great.comfort and support, giving. the form a perfect mould, Celebrated ph sicians recommend the Nemo Self-Reducing Corset for women who are physically ea It is considered a most effective substitute for abdominal bands, as it gives better support without being bulky.
