Staunton Daily Leader from Staunton, Virginia • 6

STAUNTON DAILY LEADER Society Gossards for the Business Girl Active and supple young men used to do much of the office work now handled by business girls. But business does not suffer from the change where the girls are given the free play of muscles and joints together with the scientific support of spine and abdomen which Gossard Corsets insure. Attractive girls, correctly fitted in Gossards, are able to do all that men could do, and without the 3 o'clock fatigue which is SO discouraging to girls not properly corseted. Model 376 is a corset with assured popularity because of its beautiful outline, combined with the comfort of a medium bust and light boning. The skirt is sufficiently long to smartly confine the hips into straight lines.
