AMERICAN HOMES AND GARDENS 



XXI 



Before putting up this season's screens, remember that it isn't the 

 frame that makes the screen — it's the material within the frame which 

 will spell the difference between comfort and discomfort for you this 

 summer. 



Spend this summer undisturbed by flies, mosquitoes and other insects, 

 by screening your doors and windows with Po/npeiia?i Bronze Wire 

 ClotJi because 



it affords absolute protection against insects; 

 it can't rust; 



it offers no obstruction to light and air; 

 it is practically invisible; 

 it is indestructible; 



it will never lose its color, either by chipping, wear, fading 

 or other causes; 



it is immune against the corrosive action of salt air. 



Pompeiian Bronze If ire Cloth, of which we are the originators and sole manufacturers, is made 

 of an alloy of copper, aluminum, and other non-corrosive materials, and combines the durability of 

 these materials with the toughness and elasticity of steel. 



Pompeium Brouxe If ire Cloth is woven on our improved power looms, which insures accuracy 

 and uniformity of the meshes in warp and filling. 



Ponipeiian Bronze J J Ire Cloth is in color a facsimile of the ancient Pompeiian bronzes, and is 

 so delicately shaded as to render the cloth almost invisible. The color is produced by the combination 

 of the materials entering into the wire and not by paint or lacquer. 



Pompeiian Bronze Wire Cloth is for sale by all leading hardware dealers. 



Packets containing samples of Pompeiian Bronze H ire Cloth can be secured free by writing to Department K. 

 We strongly advise sending for one before installing screens, as it may be the means of making this summer a mote 

 comfortable one.
