No. 13. JUVENILE HYGIENIC CORSET,
for young ladies growing too rapidly. They afford support and elasticity, directing the regular growth of the frame, without inter­fering with the free play of the vital organs.


No. 14. REVERSO-TRACTOR HYGIENIC CORSET,
for preventing children standing on one leg, and in such positions of the body which are generally the primary cause of spinal distortion.


No. 15. YOUNG LADY'S RIDING BELT,
to prevent concussion taking place in the lower region of the spine during horse-riding exercise.


No. 16. ABDOMINAL SUPPORTER BELT,
for preventing the increase and relaxation of the muscles of the abdomen.


No. 17. ELASTIC COMPRESSING BELT,
without either straps or lacing. A most valuable article in all incipient cases of abdominal weakness or relaxation.


No. 18. GESTATION BELT,
combining support and elasticity, keeping up the centre of gravity, and making locomotion easy, it permits the wearer to take exercise to the last period of gestation.


No. 19. CONTRACTING BELT,
superseding the bandages commonly used during confinement. Smooth, cool, regulated at pleasure by the wearer, affording constantly a gentle equal pressure, and susceptible of being worn without inconvenience until the figure is perfectly restored.
