I New SUPEREASE Springs With The Original Burton “DEK-O-LACE TOP” Protects mmt nwttruX Entirely new in the coil spring field. A fine double deck coil spring made with the Original “Dek-O-Lace” top. The life and usefulness of an innerspring mattress used on thisjspring is greatly prolonged because there are no open spaces for the mattress structure to sink into and break down, as in the case oi ordinary springs. Due to the scientific method we employ in fabricating the “Dek-O-Lace” top to the coils any pressure on the spring is distributed over a large area of its surface, thus giving a supporting quality found in no other type of coil spring. Metal binding strips along the ends of the “Dek-O-Lace” i top prevent any loose ends of wire, and are neat in appear- i ance. The anchor middle border feature is the most important improvement in coil springs in many years, as it effectively eliminates all annoying roll or sway. The spring is finished and styled in a distinctly new manner. A pleasing design is stenciled on the “Dek-O-Lace” | top in a deeper contrasting color tone than that on the spring itself, which produces a beautiful decorative effect. Full angle frame. Double deck coils. Center cross tie wires (Flat formation). New deep drop bottom construction. Cross slats rivetted to inside of angle frame. Outstanding Features Dek-O-Lace Top — No Open Spaces — Combined Coil and Top Support — Middle Anchor Border — Continuous Angle Frame—Double Deck Coils — Deep Drop Bottom — Beautifully Decorated. $12.50 The Schafer Store HARDWARE AND HOME FURNISHINGS
