legally adopted him, so no one can
take Kim from us, can they, How

The High Cost of Clothes Is
, (Offset by the Low Cost
of Cleanliness
In spite of high costs it is easy to maintain
an attractive wardrobe. '
It costs but little to keep clothes clean and
"presentable.
jShirts must give a few weeks' extra wear,
blouses must do their duty a little longer than
usual. - ' '
' Our careful, intelligent laundry service is
unusually valuable for this reason.
And remember there is nothing myst,eriovfa
about our methods. Pure water, pure soap, the
same materials as you would choose yourself.
- i '
We take the washday worry out
of hot days and render skilled
service at low cost.
