Dr. Warner's Coraline Corsets

Coraline Corsets, patented Nov. 27, 1878 and April 20, 1880
Its advantages are: 1st. It cannot be broken. A Reward of $10.00 will be paid for every strip of Coraline which breaks in four months ordinary wear in a corset.
2d. It is more pliable than whalebone, and so adjusts itself more readily to the movements of the body, which makes it much more comfortable and healthful. 3d. It is not affected by cold, heat or moisture. A corset boned with Coraline will last one-half longer than one boned with whalebone.
The Coraline Corset is made throughout of superior materials, and is warranted in every respect. If not found entirely satisfactory the purchase money will be returned. For sale by: F G Barber, Garnette, Kentucky.
