Tendencies indicate the third
as the most popular floor in
the house. Deservedly so.
The assembly of beautiful
things on the third floor appeals
powerfully to the cultivated
taste.
Wall Papers and other wall
decorations are in a bright but
retired place back of the ORR
entail Room. The collection
of wall things is attractive, and
lots of tasteful people have
found it out.
All about the Wall Paper
section there are evidences that
civilization claims all the art
that semi-barbarism produces,
and it is really fine art.
Extremes meet just here.
Facing the Oriental Room is
Lumminais' splendid painted
Tapestry of A Cavalier of the
XVI. Century. Within the
Oriental Room are embroid-

are elegant and rare, but all

corners picturesque, growleries
and dens half savage, hall
ways gorgeous and sitting rooms
quaint.
But away off on another
side of the third floor are pic
torial Tapestries, that in quiet
restful tone and beauty o,
subject will satisfy the eye
equally with those of the ole
masters in textiles. They cos
so little that they are Withir
the reach of everybody, ant
why despise them because
machine made?

Upholstery Store a veritabl'
museum.

embroideries, Arabian Lac,
Curtains, Muslin Curtains
Denim Curtains, are on show
Our Upholstery people are il
a festive form to-day.
The third floor boasts of
Carpets, Rugs and Ar
Squares. New York has grea
Carpet Stores established b,
years of wise, able and ener
getic work. But our Carpe
Store bows to its neighbor
and serenely claims a place a
peer of the best. The Publ
supports the claim. Carpet
are being laid down with ra
} pidity, and the procession c
Rugs from the rolls Of tn
Store to the expanses of pri
vate floors is constant and i'm
posing.
Carpets are here that cannc
be found elsewhere - man
