Squeeze gently and rinse well. No rubbing or wringing. Wash rayon stockings daily. Dry thoroughly but don't iron. Rinse a new pair before wearing the first time. DRYING Spread wet garments evenly over the clothes-line and dry them away from very string sunlight or artificial heat. Remember always to peg stockings to the line by the toes.
