the extreme borough line of Franklin, with a large

''■This Invention consists of. Duplex (or two) EUlptlo
- Steel Springs, ingeniously braided tightly and firmly
' together, edge to edge, malting the toughest, most elas
tic, flexible, and durable spring evermed, enabling the
wearer, in consequence of its great elasticity and flexi
bility, to plact and fold the shirt When In use as easily
and with tbe same convenience as a silk or muslin
dress. It entirely obviates and silences the only objec
tion to hoop skirts, viz: the annoyance to the wearer
as well as the publm especially in crowded assemblies,
railroad cars, church, pews, or In any crowded
from thedtfficolty of contracting them to occupy
img a email space. -This entirely.removea the difficulty.
While giving the skirt the usual full and symmetrical
form* and is the lightest and most stylish and graceful
appearance for the street,, opera, promenade, or house
Jrera..,A,lady having enjoyed the. pleasure, comfort,
BSSd great convenience of wearing the Duplex BHiptio
dsprlng Skirt for a Bingle day, will never afterward
willingly dispense with the use ef them. .They are the
beet Quality 1m every part, and by far the lightest, most
durable, comfortable, and economical skirt made. Mer
chants will be supplied as above, a.nd ladies In most
