A word about the "box'
business. The common way
is to sell you a box and throw
the Handkerchiefs in-that's
about what it amounts to.
Even coarse, common Hand
kerchiefs have a clipper look
when in a fancy box. We turn
the plan end for end-sell you
the Handkerchiefs cheaper
then you can get them any
where else and M1ow TN a
