This Is Accomplished by the Use of the 



Chicago Combined Dryer and Laundry Stove

 Boils Clothes, and Dries the Clothes by 

 what would ordinarily be waste heat.

 institution is complete without this 

 apparatus. Send for Catalogue.

French Aubusson Carpet. Style Louis XIV. 



THE luxurious furnishings of the modern home demand the highest grade of 

 floor coverings. They must also possess these three important features : 

 perfect harmony of color, correct style of design, and appropriate size. 

 tj In this connection we offer our unequaled facilities, enhanced by years of 

 experience and wide foreign connections, for the execution of orders for carpets 

 or rugs in the French Aubusson and Savonnerie, Berlin, Turkey and other 

 weaves. The designs are prepared by our own artists to maintain the style of 

 decoration in the carpet or rug, and the fabric is woven in one piece to fit the 

 room where it is to be used. 



•fl We have in stock at all times a large collection of these beautiful floor cover- 

 ings, especially woven by us in styles of the periods.
