HOUSE & GARDEN, 440 Fourth Avenue, New York 
At Your Service 
W OLTLD y o u like a 
sun-dial—a fountain, 
some artistic garden 
furniture, or perhaps a 
graceful marble bench to 
place under the wisteria 
vine ? 
Or a bird house to bring 
feathered companionship 
and good cheer? Or a few 
pieces of exquisitely shaped 
garden pottery placed ad¬ 
vantageously here and there, 
among the poppies or near 
the gate? 
Flowers and plants do their 
part. Then conies man’s work— 
adding to nature’s that little touch 
of originality which makes your 
garden distinctive, individual and 
perhaps more attractive than your 
neighbor’s.
