. Corset
Is staged at the vital points in such a way
that the shapely lines of your gown are accen-
tuated and retained: At the same time this
corset is so pliable and easy that absolute free*
doe of movement is assured. It lends a
youthful grace and elegance to the figure.
The Wearer of a D. & A. Corset is Always
Distinguished by Her Poise and
Elegence of Figure.
Not one women in ten thousand can real-
ly have a "figure" without a corset. D. & A.
Corsets furnish the actual support necessary to
every lady. A few light strips of the peerless
p. es, A. boning give as much control of the
lines as the stiff, heavy, cramping corsets of
former years.
Whatever the design, style, or price
of the D. & A. Corset you buy, it is the
best value, best fit and quality for the
money.
We illustrate four styles of D. & A.
Corsets --there are many --and, whatever
your physical type, you'll find a "D. Ee
A." to please you --a corset that will
keep its shape and ✓ill beautifg
gours.
"Will not break or rust:or tear, D.
& A. Corsets made for wear."
