a change. Hosiery economy con sists of buying two pairs exactly the same and washing each pair after it is worn once, in warm water and a very little soap-only at the feel.

Always Lurn your stockings wrong side out when you wash them, always rinse them well, and always hang them

shaded in a place, never in the sun. Buying two pairs that match will make it, possible for you to have an extra when one rips-and it 's seldom that both stockings wear out at the i same time.

Two pairs of shoes will allow you to alternate. thus letting one of drying pair have the beneût

and straightening on shoe trees. If you turn your heels over, rub- ber heels are far more economic than leather ones.
