TYEDWOOD frame houses are 
permanent structures. The 
natural, odorless preservative which 
permeates the wood during growth 
protects against all forms of fungus 
rot and decay and against insect 
activity — as the sound condition 
of this old house convincingly 
demonstrates. 
When j'ou specify Redwood for 
exterior construction you automat¬ 
ically insure against heavy annual 
repair costs. Redwood takes and 
holds paint well — makes frequent 
repaintings unnecessary. Its first 
cost is not excessive ■—■ even when 
compared with common lumber 
which lacks the rot-resisting qual¬ 
ities of Redwood.

The open space between the pillars of 
most verandas can easily be filled in with 
windowed frames. The gain is great, the 
cost relatively small. The additional room 
becomes the most popular one in the house. 
Make this change at your earliest convenience 
or include it in your new building plans. But be 
particular about the glass. 
Our improved mechanical method of drawing 
and blowing and our new method of flattening 
give our glass a perfectly smooth surface and a 
brilliant lustre unequaled by any other window 
glass. Our grading is the recognized standard 
for the United States and insures highest quality, 
guaranteed by the elliptical trade mark on every 
box of the genuine.
