Something that’s easy and comfortable, with “bones’' that can’t break or kink, and soft eyelets that won’t rust or cut the laces—something that clasps the figure closely, but yields to every movement? Then you want the Ball’s Corset. If you find that you don’t, after wearing for two or three weeks, you have only to return it to us and get your money back. Edwards, Normout b Co. * -•4 i' -A 1
