You can still get a pod waist for one Dollar
if you spend-that dollar here.
It's a most unusual condition that accounts for our ability
to still sell these yxcellent Waists for a dollar. Everything
that enters into their making has greatly advanced in price-
but in the meantime their sales have grown so tremendously
throughout the Country—that the increased cost has been
offset by economies in making—induced by large-scale pro-
duction. Only in the Wirthmor are such remarkable values
possible at one dollar.
New Wirthmor Waists on sale Now
Sold in just one good store in every city.
