138 THE GARDEN MAGAZINE OctoBerR, 1906 
Healthful y 
Bed Covers — q ee = Sd, 
-—a Comfort that “\g ” is Warm and LIGHT 
Heavy covers are not only depressing to sleep under and wot warm, they are unhealth ful. 
MaisH LAMINATED Corron Down ComForts are luxuriously warm and very light. 
The filling of MarsH Comrorts 1s one continuous, fluffy piece, the same thickness at every 
point; no lumps, no thin places. By a special process, the long jrbres of the finest snow-white 
cotton are separated, curled, and then woven into thin, filmy layers. These layers are then 
merged into a supple, downy layer, the exact size and thickness of the comfort. 
In between the fibres of this downy filling, are thousands of tiny air-cells—little non-conductors 
that keep the warmth of the body in. Tp ys 
But you must see it to understand how warm and hght this filling is. Write 
for a free piece cut from a MaisH ComFort with samples of MAIsH cover- 
ings in newest patterns of silkolenes and sateens.
