NEW V1RTHMOR WAISTS $1.50
» ('1 iijS
HERE are a new group of Wirthmor Waists that like
all the Wirthmors that have preceded them are
true to their name WORTH MORE.
Many are the features that distinguish the Wirth
mor from all others at-the price. They have that fine
ness and daintiness of character that is usually incident ^
9 tr. hidhpr nrirp Rlonses: thev are made of onoZ/Zu/aMcs
and so cut as to be true to size and to fit perfectly. \
To realize just how splendid these values are we
suggest that you find out the price of materials of which 1+
they are made, figure the amount necessary for a waist
and try to estimate the cost of making. You’ll then
f wonder just as we do, how such waists can be made to
I sell for a price so small
The new Styles illustrated were just
received and but recently created.
They are January Styles for January ±
selling, made according to the Wirth
mor idea of always providing the new
while it is NEW. Every Waist is of
course unconditionally guaranteed.
Wirthmor Waists can be sold in just one
good store in every city and they are sold
here only.
