THE ARMSTRONG BRACE

Absolute Comfort in Dress for Gentlemen
SECURED BY SS'EARIN'G
The Armstrong Spiral Spring Brace ,
Supplied by all Tailors , Outfitters , Hosiers , and Drapers throughout the World .
" Braces or no braces has been exercising the " minds of correspondents of thc Times . One gentleman " says he is too fat to do svithout them ; another that he " can only get on ' svithout them by hitching up his trousers " before ladies , svhich hc terms an objectionable practice . " A fesv years ago I svas in Paris and , svanting a pair of
" braces , I svent to thc shop called ' Old England' to buy "them . I selected a pair which both behind and before " had spiral steel springs . Any movement extended thc " springs , so that I seemed to have no braces on , and yet 1 " svas not , like thc unfortunate correspondent of the Times " . reduced to the necessity of periodically hitching up my " trousers . The next time I svent to Paris I endeavoured "to buy another pair of these braces , but svas told that I " could not get them , so on my return to England 1 had " some made . Why there is no sale for them—as this , I " presume , is the only reason for their not being offered for " sale—I do not knosv , for unquestionably they , arc the " mpst comfortable braces that ever sverc made .
