of the price, they have every comfort quality of eider-down, and are pure.

curled and then woven into a thick, soft, downy piece. This continuous, ove-piece filling is the same 
thickness at every point ; no lumps, nothin places. It will zever flatten; never Jose the wonderful 
ae es “é iia 
suppleness, lightness, and warmth that make it so delightful to sleep under.

to every genuine <¢ Maish.’’ If you don’t find it, don’t accept unhealthful, heavv comforts =
