One thing to remember in the sum

that several hats worn successfully
give much better results than one hat
worn until 1t is gone and then an
other one. For, If you give your hats
time to rest between times, they look
far better. Brush them and some
times wipe them off with damp cloth
and when they get damp dry them
carefully. keeping the brim shape
