The Saving in Modern 
Home Building 
HERE it formerly was deemed necessary to employ the rarest 
and most expensive woods to obtain richness and variety in the 
Umf interior finish and trim of homes, the same effects may be Jiad 
today with the use of the most plentiful and moderate priced wood,'‘and 
with no sacrifice of permanent satisfaction. 
Using modern stains, paints and enamels of standard quality, it is now 
possible to attain any desired effect of color or tone in home interiors, 
employing no other wood than 
Southern Pine 
“The Wood of Service** 
Southern Tine has a wonderfully varied and beautiful grain and a 
satiny texture, lending itself perfectly to the use of stains. And it 
takes readily and holds permanently paints and enamels. Southern 
Bine is extremely durable, yet very workable; it is as perfectly 
manufactured as any of the expensive hardwoods, is obtainable 
anywhere east of the Rocky Mountains, and it costs less than 
any other home building material of anything like the 
same high quality. 
If you have home building or remodeling in pros¬ 
pect it will be well worth your while to send for 
the handsome new booklets. “The Interior 
of Your Home" and “Beauty Plus Ser¬
