The Combination Silver Skirt
This invention combines with the pHinn
ry Skirt the advantages or our Silver Skirt
the bottom hoops nre the panic as those us
ed in tho Silver Skirt, the covering of which
cannot wear off, while the upper ones aid
covered with cotton. No lady having once
worn ouo of our Skirls, w ill be willing to
wear nny other, as the lower hoops of all
Other kinds arc soon injured and soileed.
The best mnteeiuls are used in their con
Blruction, and, from their durability and
neatness they arc destined to become a
Favorite Skirt.
