4J"I'd have sliding doors in my 

 house if I could only be sure they 

 wouldn't stick or get off the track." 



€j[ How many times have you heard 

 that ? The 



Allith Reliable 

 Parlor Door Hanger 



overcomes every possible objection 

 and makes sliding doors what they 

 should be — a great convenience. For 



They cannot bind, stick or jump 

 the track, and the wheels are made 

 of paper pressed so hard they roll 

 as noiselessly as a billiard ball. 



*l 



^ If you are building or remodeling 

 the house, you really ought to send 

 for our latest catalog and give us the 

 name of your architect. He knows 

 our door hangers are good and will 

 specify them if you say the word.
