I'ord & Johnson’s Fiber-Rush Furniture is made 
of an exceedingly tough, tenacious fiber treated by 
our own exclusive process. The fiber is rendered 
moisture-proof—heat-proof —cold-proof — capable 
of resisting the influence of any climate. Furni¬ 
ture made of Ford & Johnson Fiber-Rush is as 
strong and lasting as wooden furniture, and is far 
more artistic. It will not injure the most delicate 
fabric and will not sliver, break nor crmnble. It 
is not only the furniture for the summer home— 
the lawn—the porch—yachts and boats—but the 
furniture for the home all the year. 
Our book tells you how, at moderate cost, to 
make your home most inviting and attractive. It 
illustrates by photographs, artistic arrangements 
of Living, Dining and Bed Rooms, Reception Halls, 
Dens and Porches, all furnished in 
Fiber-Rush 
F urniture 
This light, durable material lends itself to so 
many graceful designs that it is preferred to heavy 
wooden pieces. The soft green shade which is a 
part of the fiber itself and which it retains as long 
as the furniture is used, harmonizes with any color 
scheme, and always gives the impression of refine¬ 
ment and elegance. It is so easily moved that it 
takes most of the labor out of sweeping, dusting 
and house-cleaning. 
We make Chairs, Rockers, Conversation Chairs, 
Roman Seats, Dining Tables, Library Tables, 
Desks, Settees, Lawn Swings, Couches and Stools. 
Every piece is sold under our Guarantee of satis¬ 
faction or money refunded. Most leading dealers 
sell Fiber-Rush Furniture or they can get it for you 
from us. If you can not buy it in the stores write 
us and we will send you the name of a dealer who 
will supply you. Address our nearest office. Ask

plant easily when still small. A frame 
or a nicely prepared bit of ground will 
do finely for a seed bed; or the seeds 
may be started in trays or boxes. An 
early pricking off is advisable and soon 
after that a planting into cold frames or 
the open border, with sufficient space 
between plants, to obviate future crowd¬ 
ing. If that is done in good season, so | 
as to afford sufficient time for re- 1 
establishment before winter sets in, the I 
stock will be all the better for it in the 
spring. 
Another way, and one now largely 
practiced by large and small growers, 
is to grow the seedlings, as also much 
of the young stock in this department 
obtained by division and from cuttings 
and intended to meet the demand in 
early spring, in pots altogether, giving 
them a shift from time to time and 
placing them in cold frames during the 
summer. Some kinds stay in these 
frames until disposed of in the spring; 
others are taken to warmer quarters 
and grown slowly along all of them, 
being of salable size in the early part 
of spring. There is no difficulty what¬ 
ever in disposing of stock of this kind, 
firmly rooted and nicely started as it 
is when it comes out of the pots. It 
is a line of business not likely to be 
overdone in the near future.— Florists’

ABSURDITIES IN STAGE SETTINGS 
pROF. HERKOMER, R.A., recently 
delivered an address at the Insti¬ 
tute of British Architects on “ Scenic 
Art.” Criticising the modern theatre, 
he said some new form of auditorium, 
with an entirely different arrangement of 
the seats, was badly needed, and this, 
he thought, could be done without too 
much space being taken up. The aim 
should be to provide seats from which 
the full work of actor and scenic artist 
could be seen by the spectators. Some 
people thought scenic art was antag¬ 
onistic to the drama, but he held a 
different opinion. The real secret of 
that art lay in illusion. The make-up 
of the background should be as carefully 
attended to as was the make-up of the 
actor; yet the audience, which howled 
down the slightest inconsistencies in the 
actor’s portrait, took no notice of the 
inconsistencies in the scene. At present 
it was thought proper to have pieces of 
sky hanging in strips, like clothes on a
