Do You Ever Get Tired 
of Your House? 
When you open the front door—are you just a bit thrilled, even 
yet? Or do you sort of take it for granted? . . . hardly notice it. . . 
That’s the fatal danger-signal—the first sign of ultimate boredom... 
Quick! Buy your house a new lamp like a soft golden moon— 
a fat foolish cushion that picks up the color-scheme—new china for 
the tea tray. If you can’t do anything else, move the furniture ’round! 
But first—buy that tall deep red-brown-covered bit of magic that 
tells you just how'—for every room in the house—in articles and 
photographs—300 illustrations—110 pages—

Antique Oriental 
Rug Certainty 
Because Persia is exhausted 
and other sources nearly so, 
resulting in importers not re¬ 
ceiving 1% of former supply 
of antiques, and BECAUSE: 
through foresight based upon 
consular reports, I own a large 
stock of thick antiques, in¬ 
cluding Persians, you are 
invited to know these glories 
by writing for new descriptive 
list, prices at the lowest. 
Read the list, note the 
credentials, indicate your 
preferences. I adhere to your 
requirements and pay express 
on approval, thus making 
your final selections free of 
hypnotic salesmanship. My 
books show that my custom¬ 
ers invariably buy more than 
they anticipated.
