Some Glove Tips

Try your hand out at cleaning your gloves at home. If they are particularly expensive ones however, the professional cleaner should get them— just m case. TO clean suedo gloves rub well with hot bran, stale white bread or Fuller's earth. Remove with a small brush. -* Kid gloves should be put on the hand and cleaned with a piece of flannel dipped m milk and rubbed lightly on some good soap. This will remove all dirt. When the gloves are cleaned, pull into shape and place to dry. When buying gloves of washable skin be sure to ascertain whether the soap is to be left m or rinsed out; also, if the water should be cold or luke-warm. Attention to this, along with following the directions implicitly, make for successful washing. Fabric gloves should be left m soapy water for an hour; then squeeze and rinse continually. When all dirt has been removed rinse well m tepid water, button them together, and hang, out to dry m the air. • i
