AT THESE PBICES 



21-oz. glass throughout. Extra strong woodwork. Semi for 

 list, containing full specifications. Wherever you buy insist on 

 having a full and complete specification of what you are going 

 to receive. A comparison will then show that these goods, low 

 though the prices are at first sight, in reality are much cheaper 

 still, because so much more substantial. Do not accept vague 

 statements, and take the rest for granted, but insist on knowing 

 definite dimensions of material. The appearance of these houses 

 is also much improved by having the boarding diagonal and more 

 beaded (we have still a few of the lighter make left, prices pro- 

 >rtionately lower). All goods on approval with pleasure, 

 lample end first if desired. Special arrangements for carriage. 

 It will please others if you buy elsewhere, it will please you if 

 you buy from us. So please yourself 1
