One WOman's
Discovery About
Filet Net Curtains

Having bought one pair Of these
curtains, washing and then putting
them through mangle, just as an
experiment, this woman was so
pleased with the result that she re-
turned and bought thirty-nine more
pair to outfit her entire house.
For decorative effect and down.
right good wearing and washing
qualities, it is hard to find the equal
of filet net curtains. And the prices
are very inexpensive.
In fact,S we have these curtains
in either white or ecru, all with
small figures in the net and with
hemmed edge or lace, from $3.50 to
$3.50 pair.
They are exactly the same prices
as last year, although the wholesale
cost has advanced three times since
then.
