MAIdF Til WOIL
Has sung the praises of a good woman ; all the world admires a
beautiful sroman.
Even Napoleon, the great conqueror, realized this. It was
he who said :
"I conquer provinces,
But Josephine wins hearts."
Yet much of Josephine's beauty was due to her taste in dress.
Now woman's chief beauty is in
her figure. It has been the study of
artists ; the sculptor has idolized it.
Your figure is what you make it.
Much depends on the Corset. Health
is the first consideration but not the
only consideration.
Health without beauty is embar
rassing. Beauty without health is
like salad without seasoning.
But you may have both. Corset
Style and Corset Comfort are within,
your reach. It's a4 matter of wise
selection.
In order to show you that what
we say is true, we have placed in
our corset department a line of tho
celebrated Armorside and F. P. 404
& F. P. 576 Corsets.
We do not want you to wear an uncomfortable corset. But we
want you to test these Corsets. It's to your interest to do so.
These are the finest fitting, easiest, most stylish corsets made.
They are made to fit the form. They do it comfortably. Yet they
give the figure that graceful pronounced contour, without undue
tight lacing, which is the delight of the feminine heart.
They are more than stylish and comfortable. They are dura
ble. They are stylish when you first wear them. They retain that
style until discarded.
Wow liere'ri yoiir Opportunity
To show you our faith in these corsets we are extremely anx
ious to have you eall at our store. Pick out your number; take it
home ; scrutinize it; wear it; test it; for two long weeks. If you
do not find it the most satisfactory corset you have ever worn, bring
it back and we'll refund the purchase prico. We want you to try -these
corsets.
Wit
Our line of Dress goods, Silks,
Ladies' jackets, wraps, etc., are
the handsomest ever shown in
town, and our prices are mar-
velouselly low.
Our stock lias been selected
witli special care from tiie
best markets in the country.
and we are confident is see
ond to none in point of style
and beauty.
All are invited to visit our
store, wlietlier a purchaser or
not. we will talke pleasure in
showing you through the line.
Lixlief3, buy a tailor-made suit; we are now in
a position to hare them made to your measure cheap
er than you can order them. Any style, any color,
any price. Others charge extra for suits made to order
we do not. You iret it made like you want it. for
less than the average merchant sells them from stock,
