NOTES:
(1)    In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal
       recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial 
       information have been made.  The results of operations for the three 
       months ended March 31, 1997, are not necessarily indicative of results 
       for the full year.

(2)    Earnings per share are computed based on the weighted average number of
       common and common equivalent shares outstanding.  Common equivalent
       shares consist of stock options which have a dilutive effect when 
       applying the treasury stock method and are considered when material.  
       The Company intends to adopt Statement of Accounting Standards No. 128,
       "Earnings Per Share," for the year ended December 31, 1997 and will 
       restate prior period earnings per share as required.  The adoption of 
       this standard is not expected to have a material impact on previously 
       reported earnings per share.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
         Condition and Results of Operations.

       Liquidity

       The Company's primary source of liquidity is its cash and marketable
       securities which aggregated approximately $32,547,000 at March 31, 1997,
       compared with $31,457,000 at December 31, 1996.  In addition, the 
       Company maintains a $7,500,000 bank line of credit and has banker 
       acceptance loan facilities to provide funds on a short-term basis when 
       necessary.  The Company did not make any borrowings under these 
       facilities during the first three months of 1997.  

       The Company has historically generated adequate cash flow from 
       operations to meet working capital requirements.  The Company
       believes that available cash and marketable securities, cash provided
       from operations and available borrowing facilities will provide
       adequate support for the cash needs of the business.

       In April 1997, the Company announced its plan to build a 370,000 square
       foot building in Glendale, Wisconsin, to house its corporate offices and
       warehouse and distribution facilities.  The building is scheduled to 
       open July 1, 1998.  The estimated cost of the building and related 
       equipment is $12 million.

       Results of Operations

       Total net sales were flat for the three months ended March 31, 1997
       compared with the same period in 1996.  Net sales in the wholesale
       division increased $659,000 (2%) from $31,293,000 in 1996 to $31,952,000
       in 1997.  Retail net sales decreased 23% from $2,879,000 in the first
       quarter of 1996 to $2,201,000 in the first quarter of 1997 as a result
       of the closing of 13 leased departments in 1996.

       For the first quarter, gross earnings as a percent of net sales was
       27.2%, up from 25.4% in 1996.  Gross earnings in 1996 included a $600,000
       loss reserve for the closing of the 13 leased departments which occurred
       in 1996. Excluding this reserve, gross earnings would have been 27.1% in
       1996.
        
       For the first quarter, selling and administrative expenses decreased
       $450,000 between 1996 and 1997.  As a percent of sales, selling and
       administrative expenses decreased from 17.6% in 1996 to 16.3% in 1997. 
       This decrease also resulted from the closing of the 13 leased departments
       in 1996.
