Smart new outfits in wool will give the maximum in com- fort and appearance, especially if the>' are properly cared for. Here are a fexv pointers on hoxv ta keep new clothes fresh and new looking. Once the press has been put in a pair ai wool trousers, a skirt, or what haV7e vou, it will stay sharp longer if the gar- ment is properly treated. Al- ways bang ciothes up wben not wearing tbem.
