Te� `�_ . ,rev'°I,_1 i�iv t' 7l''N K f Its AISE the standard of living in the home and the standard of the nation rises with it. Canada was one of the first countries to respond to the now world-wide movement to beautify the home. Arid there are no people in the world who are in a better position to afford and to appreciate the best and truest things in life than we in Canada. Furnishings Mould Character The important part that the furnishings of the home play in moulding character and de- veloping a true pride in family and in race is better understood today than a few years ago. Howare children to be led to appreciate the solid, substantial things in life—the beau ties of art, the love of goods literature, the desire for culture—unless they have the pro- per surroundings in the home? . • Improve the Horne ,Beautify the home with furniture, that is designed on truly artistic lines. Make the home a place of cheerfulness, refinement and restfulness. Make it breathe warmth and heartiness. Make it truly hospitable, solidly comfortable—a home that inspires interest in all that is good and worth while in life— and it will mould character and develop true pride in family and in race. s eye Life" To procure furniture that will elevate and make the house a home of which you can be justly proud does not call for extravagance. Good taste is more necessary than a large expenditure of money. There are beautiful suites and individual pieces of furniture obtainable at moderate cost, which are true works of art, many of them being correct adaptations of, the designs of the "old masters" who created the "Period Furniture" so much in vogue today. A "Queen Anne" Room As a suggestion, study our sketch of a "Queen Anne" bedroom. It shows the beau- tiful and refined effect obtained by the selec- tion of an artistic suite of bedroom furniture. Just two or three pieces of artistically de- signed furniture will raise the level of an entire living room. And by gradually adding other pieces and suites in the different rooms, you will, before long, work a magical trans'- formation of the home. . A Finer and Greater Nation Every advancd in -refinement and culture, every improvement in the home surroundings, every influence that raises the ideals of home - life, makes the nation that much finer and 'stronger. We are living in progressive, *osperous times in a country with a glorious future, therefore, Canadians have every incentive and can well afford to beautify their homes with new and better furniture. This announcement is inserted by . THE HOME FURNISHINGS BUREAU Bank of Hamilton Building Toronto, Canada NOTE—The Home Furnishings Bureau does not sell furniture or goods of any kind. Its object is to promote a greater interest in the furnishing of Canadian homes, Your local dealer will be pleased to give you any information you desire about suit- able furniture for your home. 52 5R THE HOME OF 0OO[) FURNITURE Corse Here for Christmas Furniture the future of a ward what could be de- sired, in almost every case there is such improvement in the conduct of the ward and such hopeful iiplications for the future, as well as the assur- ance of helpful home influences, that the work is abundantly justified from every standpoint, and may even be regarded as a social factor ranking with the school and the church. A pleasing paragraph from the Ag- ent's report reads: "Never has there been •greater sympathy and co-opera- tion extended throughout the County tdwards the Society than during the past year, nearly every municipality giving a cash donation to Help along the work, and the total contributions are greater than in any former year. Women's Institdtes, Church Ladies' Aid, and citizens generally, have been liberal in their suppers." The officers for the past year were unanimously re-elected, and the Coun- ty Agent's salary, as paid by the So- ciety, increased $200. The discussion on the various matters which arose was sympathetic and the approval of the work most hearty. The manage- ment 9f the Shelter by the matron re- ceived well deserved praise, and a cor- dial invitation is extended to all to visit and sea for themselves. The usual annual report will bo printed in a couple of weeks and any one desir- ing a copy will find it interesting reacting, Donations may be sent to either Sherif i Reynolds, as County Treasurer, or, to G. M. Elliott, Coun- ty Agent, and any information de- sired, or applications for children will be promptly attended to by the Agent. THE b'Of.LOWING DESPATCH Ar'PEAit'ED IN FRIDAY'S DAILIES.
