THE BAY STATER 
It Gives a 
New Beauty to Stucco 
B AY STATE Brick and Cement Coating lends 
a beauty to stucco that is striking. Dull gray 
walls stand forth as if transformed. Weathered 
'and drab concrete assumes a new life. 
A new life in fact, as well as in appearance. 
For Bay State Brick and Cement Coating is 
absolutely moisture-proof. It creeps into the 
pores of stucco or cement, hardens and water¬ 
proofs the wall. Neither dampness nor driving 
rain can seep through a coating of Bay State. 
Bay State Brick and Cement Coating is made 
in a large range of beautiful tints and in pure, 
rich white. 
Send for the new Bay State booklet No. 4, which 
shows many actual photographs of beautiful Bay 
State coated houses. And let us send you samples 
of white and tints. Write us to-day.

Use Bluebird Curtain Rods 
with Fine Curtains 
Styles for Every Home and Every IVindow 
Your finest curtains cannot look well on old-fashioned, 
sagging, unsightly rods. Insist on “Bluebirds. " They are 
the newest and most practical rods made—the outgrowth 
of 50 years' manufacturing experience. 
Ornamental stiffening ribs give Bluebird Rods their 
rugged strength, and their Satin Gold and White-Enamel 
finishes provide unique beauty. “Bluebirds” are rustless 
and sagless; rounded edges save curtain wear; and single, 
double and triple styles fit all windows and draperies. 
Packed complete with nails and screws—easily put up.

Makers of Home Accessories for Over 50 Years 
Exposed 50 years— 
surfaces flat, edges sharp 
T HESE Redwood shingles, sidings and brackets, 
unprotected by paint for many years, and laid 
with old-fashioned cut iron nails, are free from 
decay after half a century of exposure to the weather. 
The surfaces are flat, the edges sharp and square. 
The natural, odorless preservative which permeates 
Redwood during growth protected this Redwood lum¬ 
ber for over half a century against all forms of fungus 
decay and against insect activity. 
You can assure equal permanence and protection by 
specifying Redwood for exterior construction work. 
Grade for grade, Redwood is no more expensive to 
use than woods that cannot compare with Redwood 
for rot resistance and proportion of clear wood free 
from common defects.

Homes Booklet.”
