A poorly fitting corset fre quently leads to severe nervous and organic troubles which cause years of suffering. In the MODART Corset we have a garment that always gives genuine comfort, sitting, standing or lying down. A perfect found- . tttion for fitting and ' wearing dresses and gown MODART Corsets form the proper foundation upon which to build the clothes and give them that peculiar elegance and attractiveness which Is so much sought after. The smooth perfect fitting back, the graceful body lines and the pliable resilient boning contribute to displaying the tai lored suit and delicate evening gown In all their beauty. "A fine form it better than a fine face" Ralph Waldo Emerson. After all, the acme of beauty Is the expression, the Ufa, the freedom, of a beautiful figure. Ease and comfort of motion unconsciousness of any re straint permit thia freedom, this py and zest which gives true expression to beauty. It Is along these lines tak ing health and joy In life as a basis that MODART Corsets are designed and every wear er stands as fine proof of Its success. 419 White Coutile $3.50 K-700 Pink, $5.00 E-821 White Broche $8.00 nor D en!
