your automobile. Outside the cylin¬

it’s only a question of wear. Lubrica¬

VITREOUS CHINAWARE 
FOR THE 
HOME BATH-ROOM 
PLATE 986-K 
HE bath-room for your home should 
receive the most careful attention 
of any room in the house. Abso¬ 
lute sanitation is the aim of civilized people, 
and the sanitation of your home bath-room 
is your first consideration. Without sani¬ 
tary fixtures this object cannot be reached, 
no matter how good the workmen may be 
who instal the bathtub, washstand or closet 
bowl and flush tank. 
For reasons of cleanliness and durability 
solid white vitreous chinaware is firmly 
established as the nearest possible perfec¬ 
tion in bath-room sanitary equipment. For 
many reasons vitreous china closets and 
closet flushing tanks, as above illustrated, 
demand your serious consideration. Being 
made of a solid white vitreous chinaware, 
they are impervious to the action of water 
or acids, having no seams there is no dan¬ 
ger of .warping, and the surface being a 
clear hard glaze baked into the body of the 
ware as an integral part, paint and varnish 
troubles are eliminated. No metal lining 
is needed, therefore the dangers of corro¬ 
sion are not to be feared, and the cost of 
vitreous china fixtures does not exceed that 
of a closet with the usual metal-lined 
wooden tank. 
Of the hardness of rock, simplicity of 
operation, ease of cleansing and beauty of 
design, vitreous china closets and closet 
flushing tanks are acknowledged the ideal 
fi.xtnres for the home bath-room. 
We are the largest manufacturers in the 
world of these fixtures, and will gladly send 
further information if yon will write us.

Answer:—Treat the woodwork of 
your room with an enamel showing a 
good ivory tone. Divide your side wall 
into panels about four feet six in width 
setting full length mirrors in alternate 
spaces. The mirrors to be framed in 
flat molding like the woodwork. The 
intervening panels of the wall to be cov¬ 
ered with pale green two-toned striped 
flock paper. Great care should be 
exercised in the selection of this to obtain 
exactly the proper shade. An apple 
green is advised and it should he rather 
pastel in effect. A curved shelf twenty- 
four inches deep could be set about two 
feet from the floor in front of each mirror 
with supporting legs curved and carved 
if desired, all of these to be finished like 
the woodwork. In front of each mirror 
place a delicate chair finished with the 
enamel and having a white cane seat 
and back. 
The ceiling of the room should be 
ivory white and the wood or plaster 
cornice the same. Dropping over each 
mirror and at either side, electric lights 
should he placed, covered with pale, 
amber shades (this makes a particu¬ 
larly becoming light). A margin of two 
feet of hard wood should show on either 
side of the two-toned green Wilton car¬ 
pet which should extend the length of 
the room. All fixtures should he of dull 
old brass and the carved wood standards 
which hold the hats on exhibition should 
be finished in gold. 
Instead of a screen at the rear of the 
room, a lattice partition is advised, this 
to be finished with the ivory enamel and 
vines, ivy preferable, trained over it. 
This will not he an expensive decoration. 
Green wall covering is suggested as 
being a color which will harmonize 
with any other color effects shown in the 
room. 
At your French plate windows hang 
thin crinkled silk curtains in a shade of 
green slightly deeper than the walls, 
allowing them to extend only to the sill. 
Finish with a three-inch hem and run by 
a casing at the top on a small brass rod. 
These curtains should slip easily on the 
rod and be well pushed back, outlining 
and framing the window.
