A Message for Rug-Lovers
FROM A RUG-LOVER
CJ People say rugs are costly; how about
motor cars ? Which enhances in value
and beauty ? Why, the money put into
a set of tires will buy a choice collection
of four to eight thick antique gems. I
am referring to W. S. U. H. tires at $300
the set, also to rugs equal to any illus-
trated. I do not handle doctored trash,
but gem pieces only, and I sell to only
those who want the best at right prices.
I will send you my booklet, which shows
you how I can give you the very widest
selection of choicest antiques right in
your home; it tells also what other
people have found out.

This Will Interest You If You
Intend Building a House
Select wood for the interior trim which shows an attractive
grain. This does not necessarily mean a costly hard wood.
Some of the cheaper woods are quite as beautiful when stained
with Murphy Varnish Company’s Penetrating Oil Stains, and
finished with Nogloss Varnish. This provides a natural surface.
A semi-gloss surface may be secured by using Murphy Varnish
Company’s Transparent Wood Finish Interior, the last coat to be
rubbed with pumice and water.
Ash, chestnut, birch, red gum, yellow pine or cypress show
equally well under the stains and finishes recommended. The
stains include light and dark browns, gray or weathered effect,
moss green and mahogany. The grain of the wood shows well
under this treatment and develops a variety of tone which is
decorative.
Write today for sample panels,
mentioning the wood to be used in the
building, and send your blue prints or
a rough draft of them to Murphy Var-
nish Company’s Department of Deco-
ration. You will receive a complete
color scheme for your house and careful
and expert advice regarding its interior
finish and decoration.

This Department is under the direc-
tion of Margaret Greenleaf, whose
reputation as Consulting Decorator is
national. This assures you artistic as
well as practical help. Samples of wall
covering, draperies and tiles, with sug-
gestions and cuts for lighting fixtures,
hardware, furniture and rugs to com-
plete a harmonious interior are included.
The compliment of this service is
extended by Murphy Varnish Com-
pany to their patrons and is without
charge.
