"Good OAK FURNITURE is more nearly ‘boy- 
proof’ than any other equally fine cabinet-wood.” 
Its elegance, dignity and artistic adaptability— 
are backed by its sturdy resistance to dents 
and scratches. (Really an important point.) 
"There is no finer heirloom than good OAK 
furniture.” There is no more safe and enduring 
investment — none better worth insisting upon.

Stucco-finished home, because it is 
the one background for stucco or 
cement that holds without cracking or 
crumbling as long as the house stands.

House & Garden 
For Motor and Camp 
Independent of hotels, scornful of towns, with 
nothing ahead but the coaxing road, the skilful 
motorist, properly equipped, now goes light-heart¬ 
edly anywhere within gasoline. 
For luncheon or camp, there is a fireless cooker, 
compact, fitted with food compartments; a prac¬ 
tical ice-box; an utterly complete luncheon-kit for 
six people; and a collapsible motor bed-tent which 
rolls up into a narrow parcel on the running board 
by day and blossoms out into a full-fledged tent and 
double bed at night. There is a capacious black 
enameled duck liold-all bound with pig-skin; a rub¬ 
ber-lined cretonne toilet-bag; and even such exotic 
conveniences as a cravenetted - kliaki wardrobe, 
where one’s clothes may hang safe from dew. 
These are all shown in this issue, together with 
others like them which House & Garden’s editors 
have collected from the best sporting and motor- 
accessory makers, especially for your comfort. 
Country House Conveniences 
Or, if you prefer to stay at home, House & Garden’s 
editors have tried to anticipate all those wants 
which are sure to arise after you have settled your¬ 
self in your country house.
