FOR THOSE WHO 
PREFER SIMPLICITY 
Dignified in construc- 
tion, this Italian mar- 
ble jar is very effective 
when filled with 
greenery 
Sometimes, in spite of its many windows, there are sombre 
corners and wall spaces in the solarium that are difficult 
to handle. These can be immediately relieved by the proper 
use of mirrors. Not the mirror of the gilded frame and ela-

planted with Ivy, Ferns, or some similar greenery — mirrors serve 
a double purpose. All of the dark corners and uninteresting 
wall spaces are banished forever, and all the reflected vistas of

double advantage of being 
both durable and readily 
moved about 
A PORCH FOR ALL

Combining the best features of 
solarium and old-fashioned 
veranda, this roomy porch is 
an ideal place in which to 
lunch and lounge. Home of
