Efficiency of
Mattress Due
To Spring
Despite the fact that the first
wire bedsprlng came from a bag
gy seat, they hare long since
grown out of. the horse and bug
gy era. ..." '.-
Many people are under the Im
pression .that the comfort of a
bed is due mostly to the matt
ress, with the result that they get
modern mattresses to use on top
of out-moded bedsprings,but mo
dern mattresses and ' springs are
designed to be used together. The
right bedsprlng will supply one
third of the bed's resilience when
used with an lnnerspring mat
tress, and two-thirds with a solid
mattress. ,
An old-fashioned bedsprlng
used with a new lnnerspring mat
tress lacks efficiency because It
is too soft to provide adequate
support, and in a short time will
break down even the best mat-
tress. . - : ;-" "'
During the past ten years, bed-'
springs Bare been greatly im
proved to keep pace with mat
tress Innovations. To provide the
proper foundation for the popu
lar lnnerspring models, manu
facturers have devised coil springs
that have specially constructed
top features. Some of these have
platform tops consisting of 'flex
ible, horizontal steel bands, and
others have different looking
coils, called convolute, that form
a flat surface when in use. ..
Boxspiings are as popular as
ever, but they have been rede
signed since grandmother's day
when they served as the founda
tion for her feather bed. The new
boxsprings are lighter in weight,
'and those sold with - lnnerspring

The quints are well Into their
sixth year as normal girls. Their
care after the first year of life
"has been no different from that

the first year of life, and par

premature or "fragile babies" re

Birth of the quints was an
emergency in which the best use
