N O woman calls for “Candy,” “Face Powder” or 
“Canned Soups”! She calls for them by par¬ 
ticular names—names that represent articles of ap¬ 
proved standard and value. 
Every woman should know more about CREX rugs 
with twenty years’ established reputation. The rug 
that brings a little of the outdoors right into your home 
and provides an artistic, useful and inexpensive floor 
covering the year ’round. 
CREX rugs do not retain dirt—require no beating 
and can be cleaned with damp cloth or broom and light 
shaking. Numerous designs and colors make selection 
easy—for any room. 
Don’t just say grass rug—you may get an artful 
imitation made of split or crushed straw. Insist on 
the genuine CREX. 
CREX is easily said and easily read. The name 
woven in the side binding provides an ineffaceable 
identification mark. 
Handsomely illustrated catalog showing actual colors and 
sizes of the three CREX weaves—DE LUXE, HERRING¬ 
BONE and REGULAR—mailed free on request.

tin flowers. It is effective and will har¬ 
monize with different color schemes as 
it comes in pale green, pink, blue or 
ivory with vari-colored flowers, all in 
tin. $15. 
(37) The French boudoir clock pic¬ 
tured, is ivory color with a blend of 
blue and pink flowers. It is 17" long 
and has a 30-hour movement. It may 
also be had in gilt or polychrome. $7.50. 
(38) There is always an odd spot in 
the house that needs a lamp. Some¬ 
times it is a very small lamp that is 
required. The little lamp, shown on 
another page, is an unusual value. It 
is 13" high, of pottery, in orange, old- 
rose, blue or heliotrope with a dec¬ 
orated parchment shade to match. 
Complete on a black stand. $10. 
(39) A little tip-table that will be 
found most useful 
in the city apart¬ 
ment or country 
house is of mahog¬ 
any with an inlay in 
the center. It meas¬ 
ures 17" across and 
is 22" high. $11.50. 
(40) If you have 
not an electric ice¬ 
cream freezer, the 
next best thing is a 
vacuum freezer that 
is a refrigerating 
plant on a small 
scale. No labor is 
required to freeze 
two quarts of cream, the chemical action 
of the salt, ice and vacuum doing the 
work. $5. 
(41) The bowl shown here is a good 
example of the effectiveness of Italian 
pottery. It is cream colored, decorated 
with a band of bright blue and pink 
roses and leaves. It is only $5. The 
wrought iron stand is $10. 
(42) In the same shop that housed 
the Italian bowl, I found some candle¬ 
sticks, copies of old Italian ones. They 
are of composition, old blue and gold 
and extremely effective. They are $12 
a pair and are about 12" high. 
(43) In electrical appliances, nothing 
is of greater comfort than an immer¬ 
sion water heater. By simply placing 
this rod in a glass of water and turning 
on the current, the water is heated al- 
m o s t immediately. 
It is 7" long and is 
$6.25. A larger, 
crookneck shaped 
one, is $8.50. 
(44) Another 
electrical conveni¬ 
ence is a small 
toaster stove that is 
large enough for a 
slice of bread and a 
pot of coffee to 
cook at the same 
time. It is $7.
