-Your Christmas ~j 

 Money 



How would you like to produce 

 enough extra money to enable you 

 to get through Christmas, without 

 spending too much of your savings ? 



We have anticipated this desire 

 and have a plan that provides cer- 

 tain advantages, which enables any 

 person to add a considerable sum 

 to his or her Christmas money. 

 Moreover, we have some special 

 Christmas offers that make it com- 

 paratively easy to qualify. 



This Chance is Offered You 



We want some person, either man 

 or woman, in every town and city, 

 to take renewals and new subscrip- 

 tions for our magazines. For this 

 service, we will pay a liberal prof- 

 it. No previous experience is re- 

 quired. The work can be carried 

 on in leisure hours. No cash invest- 

 ment is necessary. 



At this season, when so many 

 subscriptions are being renewed, the 

 business offers unusual opportunities 

 for profitable spare time effort. 



A Salary to Good Producers 



In addition to the regular com- 

 mission, a regular salary and a 

 special rebate are paid to good pro- 

 ducers. This salary payment and 

 rebate money can be obtained by 

 sending a certain number of orders 

 every month. Some of our agents 

 make as much as $ 1 00.00 a month; 

 they all earn something. 



If you are interested in this plan, 

 if you can use some extra Christ- 

 mas money during the Holidays, 

 send a postal card, and ask for our 

 "Christmas Money Plan." Write to- 

 day, so you can get an early start.

THE CRAFTSMAN is a magazine designed pre- 

 eminently to represent the World's Progress. Its readers 

 are Intelligent American Men and Women. It aims to 

 present all phases of Public and Individual Achievement 

 in which Sincere Craftsmanship is shown. 

 Wherever there is progress in America, or any part of 

 the globe, in the Fine or Industrial Arts, you will find 

 the magazine an enthusiastic exponent. Modern 

 Architects who Think through their Work and Build 

 for Beauty, Permanence and Suitability find THE 

 CRAFTSMAN their unfailing champion. Practical 

 Builders read the magazine because every phase of their 

 Work finds Presentation there, and there is Unfailing 

 Inspiration for Development. In Policy the magazine 

 is Fearless, Sincere, without conscious prejudice. Its 

 Purpose is Progress. 



In addition to the many houses and plans given in 

 "CRAFTSMAN HOMES," two Craftsman houses 

 are published every month in the magazine so that any- 

 one accepting our offer will have a complete presentation 

 of the progress of Craftsman architecture. 



"CRAFTSMAN HOMES" is of value to everyone 

 who intends to Plan a Home, Build a Home or Furnish 

 a Home. It contains plans for houses costing from $500 

 to $15,000, and suggestions for the Interior Decorations 

 and Furniture. 



The houses shown are intended to embody the best in 

 American Architecture: Honest Construction, Sim- 

 plicity of Interior Arrangement, Beauty, Harmony and 

 Economy. 



Craftsman Needlework, Metal Work and Tapestry (and 

 Their Value in Home Making) is an important feature 

 of "CRAFTSMAN HOMES." 



Cabinet Work for Home Workers and Students Who 

 Wish to Learn the Fundamental Principles of Construc- 

 tion is a chapter of significance to all interested in Home
