tion is typical of the appreciation of the

They are enthusiastic over its artistic and prac¬ 
tical usefulness, in telling what to do and how to 
do it, and the great saving in money it makes 
possible in the beautifying of homes. 
The course of V 4 lessons with more than soo 
illustrations covers every phase of interior decor¬ 
ation — Fixed Background. Walls, Floors and 
Ceilings, Lighting. Curtains, Flangings and Dec¬ 
orative Textiles. Choice and arrangement of Fur¬ 
niture. Composition, and how to know and to use 
Period Styles and Period Furniture. 
The knowledge it gives you is essential to a cul¬ 
tural education, a necessity in making homes beautiful, and it lays the foundation 
for a profitable career in a fascinating profession.

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 sliow that my custom¬ 
ers invariably buy more than 
they anticipated.
