If You Were in New York 
T^O you like poking around the 
shops and picking up new things, 
odd things, things that make your 
friends say, “Why, my dear, where 
did you get it?” 
• 
But the trouble is—if you live in a 
fairly small place—all your friends see 
the same things you do. And some of 
them see them first. 
Why not get into the habit of treating 
House & Garden as though it were one 
great big fascinating shop—practically 
everything between its covers either 
buyable just as it stands, or repro¬ 
ducible by people that House & Garden 
can tell you about? 
Here’s a desk set that a man would like. Pewter. Can't break, easy 
to clean, good looking in a clean-cut solid masculine fashion. The 
ink-well is $6._$o, the ash tray $2.25; the gill measure to hold pens 
$i.go. The portfolio is of parchment with a colorful old print on 
it, shellacked, Sg.yS. And the Argus pheasant pen {warranted to 
keep a faithful eye on his correspondence), is $2.^0

Next time you have to shop for your 
own house, or send a housegift to a 
friend, why not try picking it out of 
House & Garden? Write to the Shop¬ 
ping Service that buys for you, with a 
25-cent commission on anything under 
^10, a 50-cent commission on any¬ 
thing from there to a million. Then 
sit down with a book till the postman 
comes!
