 endeavoring to strike a happy medium." 



Your request for decorative suggestions with attendant samples and pictures 

 receives the attention of these experts : 



MR. WHYBROW, the acknowledged authority on the French and Pergo- 

 lisi schools. 



MR. VERBECK, who has made a life study of the Pompeian, Italian and 

 more massive furnishing. 

 MR. CROSSLEY, whose Colonial interiors are known throughout the country. 

 Nevertheless, we have struck a " happy medium " in our price of furniture, Stuffs, 

 wall papers, and hangings ; and make no charge whatever for the schemes sug- 

 gested by these gentlemen. 



Our profit is as commercial as the selling of unbleached muslin. 



Therefore, send along your plans or rough sketch of what rooms you want to treat and 

 see what you will get. 



Also let us knov/ what pieces of furniture you are considering and beautiful pictures 

 will go forward.
