"La Comlesse™ appears in lines that will mould the most obdurate form into comfortable For to have one’s gown in conforme ance with the Fashion is but one-half the effect. The other, and better half, is the foundation given for the gown by your corset. To round an angular form into svelte lines, to subdue a well-develop- ed form into slim-looking lines of srace,to bring about this without sacri icing one’s comfort or endangerin one's health—that_is the mission of a proper corset. That is what “La Comtesse” will do.

To support the form easily, and yet to maintain proper i pei lines, these Corsets are boned with ‘Walohn, which we guarantee not to warp or lose shape. La Comtesse" is fitted to your figure by Corsetieres, who skil- fully mould it as though it were built to your individual requirements. Prices are $7.94 to $29.89.
