CARE OF THE WARDROBE.

Air Your Clothes and Don't Forget to Give
Them Good Brushing.
Gloves must be pulled In shape as soon
as they are taken off and not put away till
they are dried. They should always be re-
moved from the hand by turning them
wrong side out from the wrist up, not by
Juggling at the fingers. In the shops they
always turn them, as the other method
ruins the shape and is likely to tear the
kid. The best way to preserve the crisp
ness of wells is by rolling them up in long,
narrow sachets made for the purpose. The
tulle is Strengthened out, folded, laid on
the sachet and rolled up with 1t and the
whole tied with ribbon fastened to the

outside of the veil case. All closets and
clothespresses need frequent sunnings and
airings. Clothing, too, should be exposed
now and again, just as you sun your
bedding. That is one of the most sweet
ening measures In the world. Dress wais,
Innings can be kept wonderfully nice If, in
addition, you occasionally wipe them off
with cloth dampened with very weak
cloudy household ammonia. OF course
the shields should be frequently changed.
A bodice should never be put away after
1t Is worn until 1t is thoroughly aired by
being spread inside out upon chair back,
After 1t Is completely dry 1t may be brush
ed and hung In the clothespress. The lit
tie trouble entailed by the proper care Of
clothing is amply repaid by the freshness
and neatness of appearance that result.

that It would be prohiGilory and the re-.

upon that standard. ! believe the re-.
