WILL TIGHT-LACING RETURN?
Dr. C. Willett Cunnington, wha in. six years has made himself one of the greatest experts on women'a dress and follies, says that there is not the amallest doubt that real tight-lacing will be back again in a few years time.

You can trace the whole Bocial and psychological history of ja nation through the vanities of its women, and that is what I have tried to do."
