HIGHEST CASH PRICE PAID FOR BUTTER AND EGGS Phone[65 ARCHIE TAIT Bowmanville SPECIAL'!FITTING of GOSSARD CORSETS Friday, MA Y 7th from 3 to 5 p.m. Through Ea. special arrangement with the H. W. Gossard Company of Chicago we have engaged Mrs. McMichael of their organization to assist our corsetiere in a special demonstration demonstration of Gossard Corsets. The radical change in styles this season from the slinker slouch to the erect, well - poised, somewhat somewhat military form, calls for considerablé care and attention in the fitting of your new corset. There is a decided tendency toward the adoption of a smaller smaller waist this season, and a fitted bodice, with a return to the full skirt of former periods. All of this has a direct bearing on your corset. Authentic informa- 1 tion regarding these new styles is yours for the asking during this demonstration. You can come and be fitted to any of the newer models and make your selections at a later date, if you so*desire. Whether you expect to purchase your corset at this time or not, we suggest that you arrange to attend this demonstration. demonstration. While the original front-lacing Gossard Corsets sold at $25 some ten years ago, increased manufacturing facilities and an international distribution have reduced the pricejTuntil now you can purchase a Gossard Corset for as little as $5.00, $3.50 and $2.00. It will be a privilege to serve you and to have you visit our Corset Department some time during demonstration. S. W.
