We have Brenlin as advertised in the Ladies’ Home Journal,
Outlook, Everybody’s, Woman’s Home Companion, etc.
Don’t place your order for shades until you have seen Brenlin.
A low-priced shade is not necessarily economical. Brenlin is all
that is claimed for it, costs but a few cents more and makes every shade
in your house look well and wear well.
Remember nothing is a greater disappointment than a shade
that doesn't wear.
All of our shade ha'ngersi are experienced men. With our facilities
and large stock, we can promptly and accurately fill any order.
Come in and let us show you Brenlin, and Brenlin Duplex, light
