Wehave just received a manufacturer's set of samples of
Swiss Lace Curtains, representing curtains worth from
$4.50 to $25 the pair. The samples are the lower half
of the curtain, showing the portion with the finest and
best work, are from 11 to 2 yards in length, and about 12
yards wide. Of some patterns there are two samples
and of some only one.
Already we have sold a great number, some are buying them
for curtains for small windows, some for sash curtains,
some are making pillow -shams of them. and some are
cutting the large pattern from the corner, using it over
silk or fine sateen to cover a cushion, then taking the
fine Embroidery Border for a frill. For whatever pur-
pose you might use them, there's a good deal more value
in them than the 50 or 75 cents we ask for each corner.
