garments.
1t can easily be shown that Munsingwear, because of its
unusual durability and instability, is the most economical
underwear to buy. The children like il because of its elias
ITCHY, and the fact that it always stays in place. Mothers
like it because 1t wears well and needs little mending.
When you put the boys and girls into Munsingwear
Union Suits, you have taken a long step towards preserving
