The improvements effected ot Jute years in ladies' corsets have been very great, and. strikingly beneficial to health. Foremost among these for their : peculiar exoollenoies are Rosenthal's sanitaue and Dr Warner's coraline corsots. .The former is constructed to obviate the debilitating'effects-of the ordinary corsets by relieving the delicate and and vital organs from damaging meclunic&l pressure while still affording a healthful and comfortablo support to the wearer, The support to the figure is properly distributed, and the distressing effects of light-lacing neutralised. Dr. Warner's coraline corset is boned with a new snbstance.wliioh is vastly superior to hoi'n or whalebone, It cannot break but will in every instance outlast the corset, being more pliable .that whalebone it adapts itself more readily to the movements ot tbo body. Both these admirably corsets can be had in all sizes and colors at ■Tames Smith's Tb Aro Hoosk.— \ Advt,}
