A servcrv that saves many steps, and all finished in pleasing colours and with a surface that 111 a,y be kept spotless with a damp cloth. Thou the living room and bedrooms with restful coloured papors. Rooms that can be thrown open to tho air by extensive windows whiqh admit a flood of sunshine and are set low so that the view may be enjoyed from a comfortable chair. Mirrored wardrobes, almost largo enough to walk into. A linen cupboard that is airy and spacious, and moro storage cupboards for bags and boxes and coal and wood, than are likely to be tho conveniences that go to making tho homo comfortable.
