How will I know I'm getting the best carpet value? TO CHOOSE YOUR CARP T AND UR E A OUT COME, LOOK AT OUR SPECIAL BIGELOW CARPET SELECTIONS ...SEE FOR YOURSELF HOW TO TELL CARPET VALUES! Important points to checkmbefore you decide on carpet: Check the usage: If you are putting carpet in an area that gets heavy wear... on the stairs, in front of a doorway, in a main traffic area, choose a tough, rugged carpet for long service. Tightly twisted carpets work best in these areas, as do some of the man-made fibers such as ny- lon and polyester. For rooms that get less wear, such as bedrooms and lrvingrooms you can concentrate on other qualities than rugged durability. There's a carpet for every purpose...make sure you get the right one. Check the fibre: There are lots of fine carpet fibers...all of them have been prov- en by time-testing and long wear. Fore- most among them is still wool...then there is nylon, acrylics, polyesters, olefins. Come in, we will be happy to explain the differences to you. Check the color: Color is important in choosing your carpet...because you are going to have to live with it for a long, long time. Be sure that the color is right. Look at the sample under store lights, under incandescent lights (they make a difference when compared with floures- cent light) and if possible in the daylight. Make sure the color is right for you and that you—and your husband—will be hap- py with it. Check the style: Today carpet comes in a wide variety of styles to fit everyone's taste and needs. You'll find them,a,11,dis played here...and you can choose the style that suits you best. If you long for shags, or plusher, or sculptured or level loop...we have them all. Come in and see how varied carpet styles are, Check the price: Carpet prices vary, of course. And, as with anything else, you get what you pay for. We make every ef- fort to give you the very best value for your dollar...we buy carefully and when we make an unusual buy, we pass the savings on to you. Come in, you'll find real value—whatever the price. And, rest- assured, we'll help you find the right car- pet to fit your purse and your person.
