A MAN .. . and Bis trousers! What a study in human nature the two provide! What shades of character are revealed by the manner in which a man treats his nether garments . . . and shown by the appearance of garments themselves. Of course, the man who disregards the appearance and condition of his trousers can be dismissed without further thought Some people would say he lacked a degree of civilisation . . . we wouldn’t go that far . . . but would prefer not to debate on his mental turpitude. Let us discuss, rather, the men who are glad to line up with social dictates and keep that straight and narrow crease a feature of their dressing . f . and how they accomplish it. There is the prehistoric bloke who puts his pants under the mattress at night . . . careful sort of chap . . . unfortunately the crease does not always come in the same place . . . but he’s a "trier.” The particular man, to whom this message is addressed, is the one who looks to his “Life’s-Consoler” to keg? his pants properly creased. To him we address this question:—“ls it a fair thing?” to these days when "help” In the home Is Impossible to get. When marketing to difficult. When coupons and ration books are a continual head-achy business .. . is it a fair thing to load the “little woman* with the job? There’s enough for her to do these days without wrestling with hot irons and steaming cloths to keep up the appearance of the “master.” To that man. we say:— “send your trousers to Taylor’s for cleaning and pressing . . . and notice the difference in your wife. Ton bet she likes to see yon looking smartly attired, but yon can be sure she’ll be glad to be relieved of the task of pressing those trousers of yours . . . and she’ll show her appreciation et your thoughtfulness when you relieve her of the task by sending those “breeks” to Taylor’S . . . incidentally, have yon noticed how much longer a crease made by Taylor’s will last?
