What is Home
Without Cheerful Wa
Only a lodging house. A lunch counter lacks comfort,
lacks coziness, lacks everything except gloom, and by
cheerful we do not mean extravagant or even high-
priced wall hangings. We mean these made of good
material in new and dainty designs in choice colorings.
Our assortment is large, our designs select, our colors
right. Chapters might be written on our display—we
are so enthused over it, but the best way to find out all
about it is to call and see it. The prices too will interest -
you, for they are as low as is consistent with the vir-
tues we claim for it. Of this we are perfectly willing
you should be the judge. Our goods are here to be
looked at. Our prices will be cheerfully quoted to you
to consider. Will you look l Will you • consider ?
