"SINCE WHEN

are you BUYING

MY SUITS,

madam?"

AFE

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 as for a Zoric Drycleaning. We'll bring the colour back to life... soften that harsh wool. (Zorio cleans out the deep-rooted, dirt, you know ..... gives old suits a show-window.look.). Then hang. it back in the closet and let him discover his "now.' suit for himself (For which favour he'll probably treat you'to dinner and a show that very night!). Well, why not?-

"Yes." replied the optician, "Well, I can seelem much clearer now."
