The Importance of Buying

Real linens

NOW—Cannot Be Over Estimated

Recent complications have been added to an already disrupted -linen industry. England's recent embargo forbids the manufacture and shipment of linens for civilian use—thereby cutting off practically thevonly supply of real linens for American civilian trade.

Linens are being used extensively for war equipment—for aeroplane wings and for a dozen or more necessary articles of the aoldier's outfits. This coupled with an unprecedented supply of raw fl^x ^rings the linen situation to a point where these real linens—such as we offer tomorrow, may not be obtainable for years to come—even at much higher price®.

Even today the wholesale prices *are seldom lower than the figures shown below—and you may buy with the assurance that no better values are obtainable. 4?
