Light, luxuriously soft pyjamas of Viyella fine twill flannel help greally towards a really restful night. The exclusive British-spun 'Viyella' yarns and the finely-woven texture protect the open pores of the skin from dangerous night-time chills and lowered tempera- tures when bodily resistance is at its lowest ebb. Sensitive skins find a long-looked-for comfort in the smooth surface and freedom from clamminess which 'Viyella' absorption-and-radiation "qualities bring.
