The woman who knows Chamberlin-Johnson-DuBose values at regular
prices need not be told what to expect in the way of sheer fabrics, of soft
laces and dainty embroideries.
What an opportunity, then, it is for women in general, for brides-to-be in
particular, even for brides-to-be within six months or a year!
