BUBIJC- NOTICES. THE HEARTH AND THE HOME. In bygone days, the hearth was a very rude affair indeed, but as time went on much thought was centred upon its Improvement. Rightly 60, for Is it not the centre of a home? To-day the hearth, may be one of the most artistic features in a room. In Messrs Wingate and Co.'s Showrooms this is amply proved, and the various up-to-date styles of mantelpieces, tiled hearths, and hearth furnishings are well worth inspection by lovers ■of the artistic - Plain oiled rimu is now the most fashionable wood, and there is a reversal to th« dignified simple form in mantelpiece construction. Any contrast desired may be I secured by the use of tiles, the flnn'i stock being exceedingly large and of the greatest variety. A number of designs : are shown, and all are eloquent of the advance made in rendering • the fireplace artistic Worthy of note, lg a charming fireplace with tiled- arch front and "Pinnox" hearth fire. This should be most cosy, for small side ventilators regulate the draughts. This hearth need not be the "coldest part of the room," as. is so often said with, truth of grates put in without due consideration of the latest ideas. Another shows the Interior of the fireplace completely tiled. The fire is contained in a large basket grate which will burn coal or logs. There is something oldworld and solid about it, which the dainty tiles merely serve to enhance. Grates of every style, kerbings of hammered copper and coal boxes of the. same dignified material, with a large display of solid brass furnishings are outstanding points in a show which must be of general Interest. No one should build without seeing thl* modern display. A fireplace, mantel, or hearth of the right kind -make al] the difference in the look of a room, while to the cost of putting in an Inferior ar--ticle has- of ten to -be added the cost ot taking it out. Especially should architects and buildera see these beautiful artistic productions,- in order that they may give their clients the best possible value for the least money. Our, prices are most moderate. We wiU be pleased to see at our showrooms all those interested in "The Houst Beautiful." .....,'. WIHCATE&tJO., LTD. 33 and 35, QUEEN-ST., AUCKLAND. - (Qsnpsita.
