this brings us to the important point
of taking care Of clothes. This last
is particularly related to the care
OF evening dresses.
No woman appears to good ad-

comes from throwing a dress care

Some of the special cereals pro-

on the way in which the milk or
cream is added to the cereal. Soak
ing the cereal in milk or cream

The manufacturers are careful to
suggest that the milk and cream be
added at the side so that the crisp
cereal may be sufficiently chewed
and moistened with saliva before 1t
is swallowed.
