ing up to the knee. A little talcum
powder sprinkled into the foot of
the hose will absorb the moisture
and neutralize it's harm to the silk.
twill also keep the loot comfort
able. Buying hose large enough will
make them wear longer. They should
be long enough at the toes to give
easy room, and high enough to pre-
vent the garters from pulling toe
hard on them.
Washing silk hose very frequently
will prolong their life. as they will
not then become so soiled as to re
| quire hard rubbing, and they will
be kept free from the perspiratior
| which decays the silk fibres.
