There certainly isn't any substitute for cold storage for preserving the appear- ance and the life of furs.” What do you suppose would have been the con- dition of those furs if they had been subjected to the Summer’s heat for even half those 26 years—even if moths had left them alone? When you are about to store your furs remember that “Fur Storage” or “Moth-proof Storage” doesn’t necessarily mean COLD STORAGE. If you | want to give your furs and | garments the benefit of life and beauty preserving, as well as moth protecting Cold Storage, be sure you are getting it.
