TO HOME LOVERS 
a|HO, among the countless visitors to the Wanamaker Stores, 
‘ BS can forget the first view of the Galleries of Furnishing and 
i ls Decoration, and the quick, delicious feeling of surprise, in 
ax@|| the superbly appointed Piano Salons, the exhibits of a long 
(S) perspective of the world’s famous Pianos and the daily 
= concerts in the great Auditorium; the pleasing sense of nov- 
elty in the beautiful Ceramic Galleries, Crystal Alcoves, Picture and Art 
Salons; the joyful consciousness of entering on a long anticipated pleasure 
in the splendid Drapery Gallery, the three vast Furniture Galleries, and 
the famous ‘‘House Palatial,’’ whose Furnishing Arts exhibits delight the 
senses and thrill the hearts of A MILLION AND A HALF VISITORS 
ANNUALLY! 
(1) Those who will be in New York during vacation season are cordially invited to be our 
guests, and mingle with the home lovers, from all over the country, who find the Galleries’ 
2 displays so eloquent in suggestion and inspiration in the 
Home-Making Arts; and to revel in the displays in the 
Women’s Store—the old A. T. Stewart Building. 
(2) Those who are unable to visit us, and who will write, will 
be mailed (without charge, postpaid) a copy of the daintily 
illustrated Wanamaker “GUIDE BOOK,” which tells all 
about both stores, the latest fashions in Home Furnishing and 
Women’s and Men’s Apparel, and describes our various cata- 
logues and folios, our system of sending samples, and the 
Correspondence Advisory Bureau of the Wanamaker Inter- 
national Mail Order Service. 
The Chippendale Tea Table, here illustrated, is taken 
from our folio of “FOREFATHERS’ FURNITURE” and is 
one of four hundred and fifty-one pieces, therein shown. 
(3) Those who have a room—or house—to decorate and fur- 
nish, and who will send us a rough sketch, or blue print, will 
receive samples, color schemes, pictures of furniture, sug- 
gestions and estimates, if they will address our “DECORA- 
TIVE ADVISORY BUREAU,” Section B—no charge for this 
service. Send communications to the New York Store.
