The negro spoke up and said there

replied:

Not one-half the women who come In

orally less elastic than light colors.
Dressed kid gloves usually retain their
freshness longer and are more durable
than suede. Short-fngered gloves
give the hand a man-formed look, and
they o break out at the tips or be-
tween the fingers. Putting on a glove
for the first time has more to do with
the fit and wear than almost anything
else. Take time to fit them and, II
possible, wear them a good half-hour
before closing the fingers. Button the
last two buttons first, for the greatest
strain naturally comes on the firat."
