THIS IS IMPORTANT New government laws regarding mattresses which will not burn may mean that after June 7th there will be no more mattresses and box springs as we now know them, except those made by companies which can afford a $10,000.00 treatment plant for making cotton and fabrics flame-proof. Only 4 or 5 companies in America can afford this, which means that after that time, mattresses will have new flame-proof fillinqs which you, the customer, can not furnish, and which will cost more.

By letting us re-do your mattress now, you will have solved this problem for the next 15 or 20 years. Why not contact us today. McKelva Morris, Inc. I Mattress Factory I'm So Pleased To Tell You That You Get DOUBLE GREEN STAMPS Each Wednesday in Feb. On All Prescriptions and Refills W.
