When a young girl puts on
her first corset her figure
has a tendency to grow into
tho line of her corsets whe
ther the lines are good or
bad. If her first corset is a
bad one and she obtains u
bad figure from it, of course
n new corset of the same mo
del will fit her better than
any corset of superior lines
or design, 'or has she not
allowed her figure to take
the imperfect lines of the
poor corset?
