</TABLE>

In the 1996 six month period, net sales increased in the Bedding Division, but
were flat or decreased at other Divisions of the Company.  The percentage
change in net sales for the Company in the second quarter of 1996 ( (6.5%) )
improved over the change in the first quarter ( (9.4%) ).

COSTS AND EXPENSES
Cost of sales for the second quarter (84.08%) remained even with the 1996 first
quarter (84.13%), however this is still up from the 1995 second quarter
(83.76%). The gross profit margin for the six month period has fallen 58 basis
points compared to 1995.  The decrease in gross profit margins follows a
decrease of approximately 90 basis points for the full fiscal year 1995 from
1994.  The decline in margins has been caused primarily by the inability to
increase sales prices across all product lines to compensate for incurred raw
material cost increases.  This is shown by a comparison of the cost components
comprising cost of sales as a percentage of net sales:

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS - CONTINUED

COSTS AND EXPENSES - continued
The increase in the overhead component percentage is a result of decreased
sales volume.  Total overhead costs declined approximately $2 million in the
1996 six month period from 1995.

The increase in SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales is also a result of
the decline in net sales.  Total dollars, including variable costs (primarily
sales commissions), decreased in each period;  and, in addition, the fixed
costs also declined during the periods reported.

</TABLE>

The increase in 1996 was due to the decline in net current assets, exclusive of
cash and cash equivalents.

The Company continued to purchase and retire its Common Stock in the first six
months of 1996, acquiring 322,400 shares at an average cost of $24.78, for a
total expenditure of $7,990,000.  In fiscal years 1995 and 1994, 429,701 shares
and 361,386 shares were acquired for a total cost of $10,125,000 and $9,546,000
respectively.

The current ratio was 6.64 to 1 at May 31, 1996 and 5.79 to 1 at November 30,
1995.  Working capital increased to $174 million at May 31, 1996, up from $170
million at November 30, 1995.

Cash provided by operating activities is expected to be adequate for normal
future operating requirements.

There were no material commitments for capital expenditures at May 31, 1996.
Capital expenditures that will be made in the future for normal expansion or
other operating purposes will be made from funds on hand or those generated
from operations.
