Two outstanding events kept .10-

Either one would have been the talk
of a fortnight, but coming in pairs

tles at t'ho close of the week, intjr
tei nearly 800 women, there were an
abundance of smaller parties to be

Women who know the modes
Always seek these advantages in
a corset,
They seek symmetry and grace

They seek the smooth back

They seek ease of carriage
