Fans Are So Much

Now, when they arc more than

So far as It is humanity possible
to be absolutely sure Of the COM
position Of anything, these quilts
are filled with pure wool.
The significance Of this is that
not all quilts that are called wool
filled quilts are filled with pure
wool.
Sometimes people tell us Of
"wool- filled" quilts that can be
bought for seemingly very low
prices.
But at least some of the "wool'
used in them is not the kind that

Berliners have begun to pay UP their
numerous personal debts now that the
famine In mark notes has passed. Rich
and poor alike lived on credit extended
by the butcher and the baker for weeks
because they couldn't draw funds from
the bank owing to the shortage OF cur
rency. There was hardly firm In the
city that didn't have its cash drawer full
of !. o. US. as either the firm had not
been able to make change or the GUS
toners could not obtain banknotes.
The money famine and the rise In
prices combined 10 make political
forum of every shop, and the proprieiors
complained of those husbands who took
over thti. wives jobs OF doing the family
marketing. : s soon as the increase In
prices came, according to the owner OF
one of the biggest markets, the per-
centage OF men shoppers rose in pro-
portion. Husbands, wishing to see for
themselves how the household budget
was going. seized the market basket.
Unlike the women, who have become
accustomed to evef rising prices. the
men made them matter of politics and
entered into long discussions. from which
clerks and shopkeepers could not escape.
AZ result, business was seriously
hampered. 1t took the utmost efforts to
clear the shops at closing time.
