‘Discrimination 
r HE successful hostess is most dis¬ 
criminating in choosing her guests 
and even the slightest mistake in 
placing them may mar a carefully plan¬ 
ned dinner. So also great consideration 
is given to her table appointments and by 
her selection of Fleur-de-lis Hand-woven

kins,she adds another tangible reason for 
her success, which her excellent taste 
probably makes superfluous. 
Shown at the better stores in the United States 
and Canada. A catalogue will be sent on request. 
There are also Fleur-de-lis linen 
towels, linen sheets and pillow 
cases of such general excellence 
as to justify them for finer use 
or for hard wear

A small farm cottage, more nearly at 
hand, seemed exactly the sort of thing 
to be used as a wing—and a wing it 
became. Unfortunately there was no 
other available cottage in the neigh¬ 
borhood which might have served as 
a balancing wing, so it became neces¬ 
sary to build one in the usual manner: 
the only altogether modern section of 
the house. The skeleton of such a struc¬ 
ture—timbers almost unobtainable now¬ 
adays in a well seasoned state—besides 
performing its very essential task, will, 
if left exposed, as in the living room 
of this particular house, form an 
unequalled background for the interior 
decoration. 
Lilacs help to 
blend the house 
and its surround¬ 
ings and aid in the 
pleasant deception 
of a well earned 
feeling of mellow 
and authentic age
