| TEXT | In reviewing the various enterprises that have made New York the centre of business in this country, it is interesting to note the advances that have been made in each industry. It is particularly within the scope of this work to enter into details of the various businesses, and to describe the facts and progress of each separate trade. With this preface, The writer would call attention to the immediate subject of this article, the well known and popular corset, linen and percale lingerie establishment of Mr. J. C. Devin, No. 1194 Broadway, which was established in 1872, by the present proprietor, and which since its inception has always enjoyed a liberal and influential patronage from the best classes of society. He is an extensive importer of the patented Pansy corsets, comprising five models, which reduce the size and increase the length of the waist, without injurious tight lacing. They produce an elegant, graceful and artistic shape, irrespective of the wearer's form, and are proof against perspiration and moisture, and never corrode or soil the underwear. They always retain their original shape, never stretching too much or breaking on the hips. Ladies will find these articles, as well as Mr. Devin's percale lingerie and linen, unsurpassed by any similar establishment, and the prices charged are very moderate, considering the admirable character of the goods. Personally, Mr. J. C. Devin is greatly respected for his many sterling qualities and strict probity, and those interested giving their orders to this first-class house will obtain advantages difficult to be duplicated elsewhere. |
