One seven, one eight and one nine-inch bowl are included in
each set at 89c. They are of e$tra thick glass, so that there is
no more danger of their breaking than usual kitchen bowls and
these glass ones are pleasantly sanitary and good looking. They
harmonize with aluminum ware, for instance, much better than
does the old-fashioned yellow ware. Quite unusual to be able
to get three such bowls at 89c.
