The Community That Took Pride 
In Its Lighting Fixtures 
Merion—a suburb of Philadelphia, is called one 
of the most beautiful communities in the country. 
Naturally it took great pride in its exterior light¬ 
ing fixtures—and selected 150 Smyser-Royer 
fixtures. 
Every community must have lighting fixtures. 
Choose the best and make your town distinctive¬ 
ly artistic. The Smyser-Royer line includes 3G0 
original conceptions that represent the highest 
type of iron craftsmanship. 
Smyser-Royer fixtures are not only for communi¬ 
ties hut for every type of building—the home— 
the country estate—town house—public buildings. 
Our booklet, “1 he Lamp of Hospitality” will be 
sent upon request. For complete information on 
the full line, consult your architect.

Remember to ask for 3WdZeA -The Original Flat Curtain Rod 
So easy 
to have up-to-date 
window drapes 
—using Kirsch Curtain 
Rods. Takes only a little 
time and money to enjoy 
the transforming charm of 
new window treatments. 
Curtain 
Rods 
are flat in shape. This prevents sag¬ 
ging and causes the curtains to hang 
smoothly and neatly. 
They are finished in Velvetone Brass or 
Velvetone White, staying like new for 
years. They come single, double, triple, 
for any effect; extension style or cut-to- 
length, to fit any window. 
This Kirsch bracket has no rival for 
simple, practical utility. The rods attach 
or detach by merely tilting, yet never 
come down accidentally.

COMBINES BEAUTY AND CONVENIENCE 
EVER before has a single piece of furniture so filled a 
definite need in the home. Combining the usefulness 
and convenience of the well known spinet desk with 
the slender grace and beauty of the popular davenport 
table, Vandome Desk Tables offer the double service 
of two pieces of furniture at little more than the price 
of one ordinary desk or table. 
Vandome Desk Tables may be placed at the back of 
davenports or against the side wall with equal effect¬ 
iveness. Excellent construction and finish. Made in 
the more popular period styles in various sizes. If not 
obtainable at your dealers, write us at once. 
Let us send you our handsomely illustrated booklet showing Vandome 
Desk Tables (design patented) and Spinet Desks . Free for the asking .
