Plus de Modestie

Approved by the Roman Catholic Church, invented by Signor Rossi, an Italian dancing master, " modesty bumpers" for modern dances were sponsored by the Dancing Masters' Congress at Paris.

The bumper is a spiked belt de-signed to keep the amorous at a respectable distance. The deterrent is three projecting steel bars about three inches in length. French maidens have entered no public protest at this attempt to rail them in.
