Wool has gone down in.' price,!-bnt English, manufacturers are ,6till affected by tho high prices that ruled last season, and the cost of carpets has been advanced by sixpenco a yard. Fortunately for" our" customers, instead of sending Home small orders from timo to time,' we had ordered a whole year's stock, which wa secured before the price was increased,' and wo-can, therefore, sell them ,at the old price.' We have now a very fine selection of carpet squares in several varieties. Axminster carpet squares, in beautifully blended colours and 'in self-coloured designs, wo sell at the following prices:— 9ft. by 10ft. 6in:,; from ..... £710 0 10ft. 6in. by 12ft., from ..'. £10 0 0 10ft. 6in. by 13ft. Gin., from £12 10 0 13ft. Gin. by 12ft., from ... £12 16 6 12ft. by 15ft., from £14 7 6 Wo have also very ' beautiful Asminster carpets, to be made. into, squares to suit purchasers, and tho price, of course, therefore, vary. "■ '" ""'■ We have gorgeous Mirzapore -carpets at 12ft. by 9ft., from ■ ~.. £9 10 0 lift, by 10ft., fr0m., , ... ~■;.... £9.15 0 For those who cannot- afford 'the real Mirzapore cquaro we have an-imitation mado in Japan, in the same bright,.glowing, colours, and at a very much lower.prico. For , instance, a square 12ft: by -12ft. would cost from 675. 6d. ~..-. ~..■■ ..:•"': .:,.--. And Kidderminster squares for bedrooms at prices beginning at, 9ft. by 9ft., 275. 6d. These aro mado in a variety .of- colours, cool-looking blues and "greys, in reds and mingled colours. ...... We have very lianclsome Axminster stair ■carpets at prices from 6s. to 12s. 6d. per yard. LINOLEUMS. Our stock of linoleums is , as artistic and varied as our carpet stock. The' virtues of the inlaid tile pattern v are .well known. These do not show dust marks, and they wear evenly till the last, "because., each colour is stamped ' right through''to . the back. They are more expensivo than the painted linoleums, but are"'much more artistic, and in their durability well worth the extra money. 'Other linoleums'in which the colour is stamped right through aro tho Oriental ones, and tho parquetry. Tho Oriental are made in.Uie riclv colours, and the designs Turkey carpets, and would do admirably for smoking-rooms bi ; diningrooms. These we can supply at 55.-6 d. and 6s. 6d. a square yard..-.. •,■•,..■,•..... Thoro are aleo linoleums in very handsome Art designs at Is. 3d., ss: 6d., .aud'.6s'.' 6d. per squari yard. Then we have inlaid linoleums in a sort of softened effect, not clearly cut like the familiar trie designs. ...., ~ . And a new line is the plain matting • effect in a cheaper linoleum, which" we stock in red, cream, and green. ■■ •■■ ■-..•■■• The latest idea in linoleums is the' parquetry flooring. These are in imitation of oak parquetry flooring, really, an.admirnble imitation. They are specially adapted for halls and dining-rooms, but in'a drawingroom, with an Oriental carpet; squ'iiro in tho centre, they would look very eflectivo, and would set off the .rich colours.!of. the. carpet. Yet another linoleum-like'floor covering is the cork carpet, which..is most suitable for bedrooms, as it is not cold to the feet like ordinary linoleum, and, as a matter of fact, it is made of some preparation of coi'k. Tho : plain cork carpet, in shades' of green and red, and dark blue, is very suitable for offices, "especially if there were a carpet square in'the centre. We have this plain.at.3s. 3d., 45.'3d., and ss. 3d. per yard, and in.art designs at 4s. per yard. ■':■.-. > .'■■'....■.,...■.'•• CURTAU3.
