Below we list the names and prices of sheets and pillow

There is nothing special about any price quoted. You may
buy these sheets and pillow cases at these prices one day as well
as another. The one point in this respect, however, is that the new
stocks have just arrived in a quantity and variety that assure
satisfaction.
But—
Compare these regular prices at Chamberlin-Johnson-Du-

also compare qualities and do not be misled by special “house”
brands that are often marked at higher prices than the same
