A N0rWOod Bargain

It is not often that houses of a certain type are put on the market, either for quick or sacrificial sale, but this happens to be one of the instances in which an elegant house at a reduced cost is of fered to the home buying public through us. To begin with the offering is one of the choice selections of Norwood; the house Is located on a lot 50x200. soping gradually to the rear, and reaching a commodious alley. The outside appear ance of the place is most attractive; in fact, 1t Is one of those places which when you pass makes you inyoluntarily ask. Who lives there?"
 Inside, your first entrance is into a spacious living room, to which connects handsome and artistic dining and breakfast room. All ceilings in these compartments are heavily beamed and the house maintains throughout the gen. eral mission style. The downstairs floors are laid in carefully selected hardwood while the upstairs floors are of the very best quality of rift-sawed pine The kitchen, pantries, etc., are the acme of perfection. The basement and furnace, too. are of the latest type and most ap- proved style. Leaving the downstairs. with It's lavatory and other innumerable accommodations, we usher you to the second floor, on which are situated four large, airy bedrooms, hall and bath. The place, all in all. will compare most favorably with the handsomest home in the city and the price is low, so low, in fact, we don't see how the owner can afford to trade. sS5Oo $500 cash, buys this attractive offering and the balance can be arranged to suit you. In this special advertisement we neither hope nor at tempt to set forth all of the attractive features to be seen in this place. We 4-4-

style can be changed. or rather the effect
can be changed. by putting on different
fur collar while the original lines will not

wadded wrap is also essential, for neither
velvet, brocade nor satin has any warmth.
Not too marked model should be taken,
the loose straight front, with half fitted
or straight back and medium sized sleeves
is the best model. But there must be be-
coming lines and the coat must fit well
over the shoulders. If economy must be
consulted in every particular then it is
well worth while to search the shops for
bargains in materials, as a length sufii-
