"SINCE WHEN

are you BUYING

MY SUITS,

madam?"

АРА

Here's something to try on your husband. After he rushes off to work ... reach back in the closet and bring out that dingy, droopy suit that he said was all done for. Bend it to un for a Zoric Drycleaning. We'll bring the colour back to life... - soften that harsh wool (Zoric cleans out the deep-rooted dirt, you know..... gives old suits a show-yindow look.). Then hang it back in the cloret and let him discover his "new" suit for himself (For which favour he'll probably treat you to dinner and a show that very night!). Well, why not?
