Timely Tips by Littie·Lulu 

HOW DO YOU SCORE ON THESE HELPFUL WAYS TO SAVE? 

Which saves suede shoes in bad weather?

Old stockings or Puddle hopping  

When wearing galoshes, you can guard suede shoes - if you cover 'em with an old pair of stockings, cut off ankle length. To save your good nylons from dye marks, tuck soft Kleenex tissues in galosh tops. For so many uses, you'll find non other tissue is just like Kleenex!  

When lipstick breaks, what will mend it?

Glue or A heat treatment 

Put pucker-paint back in the pink - by softening broken ends over low flame. Press together. When slightly cooled, smooth seam with fingernail. And to smooth off makeup, use Kleenex - absorbent, heavenly soft-so different from ordinary tissues. Saves delicate skin! 

Should you clean piano keys with- 

Water or Milk or A boogie beat . 

Piano keys shrink from water. So, whiten soiled "ivories" with milk - and Kleenex. Kitten-soft Kleenex protects the keys; it's sturdy, too - doesn't crumble. And with that Serv-a-Tissue box there's always a Kleenex tissue handy to polish furniture, ash trays, mirrors. 

If you lose your scarves, should you

Initial them or Tape your coat or Buy a bloodhound 

Make mufflers stay put. Sew an 8-inch loop of tape in your coat collar; slip scarf through loop whenever you remove coat. During colds, use soothing Kleenex - extra soft, thanks to a special process - with just-right strength for curbing sneezes. Saves raw noses, saves hankies.

Kleenex ends waste - saves Money...
