" That sign," said Mrs. Doubt ly, " re- 

 minds me of a good joke on myself. I 

 ordered an expensive hair mattress for 

 my bed and an Ostermoor for the cook. 

 When the Ostermoor came, it looked so 

 inviting I determined to try it." 



"Where's the joke?" 



"Why, I let Bridget keep the expen- 

 sive hair mattress." 



That is the way it goes and we are not surprised 

 It seems very hard for many people to believe it 



possible that a perfect mattress in every way can be had for #15, when they are generally 

 dissatisfied with the hair mattress which has cost them two or three times as much to start 

 with and several dollars every now and then for renovation. Send for free book and learn that

never needs cleaning or restuffing. Renovating a hair mattress is like trying to fix up 

 an old house. You never get through overhauling it. You may get it into some sort of 

 shape, but it won'' t stay in shape. It sacks and packs and wads and bags, and between 

 ' ' overhauling seasons ' ' you are really sleeping on a rough and uncomfortable mat of stuffing.
