At the Fort Lee ferry market meats

standard prices, were not in their usual

fowls, which were special at 81 20 a

Hothouse vegetables and fruits are
not sold at the Fort Lee ferry market,
but the healthy, hardy things readily
take their place. Butter, cheese, eggs
and honey are the finest Of their kind
and sell at most approachable prices.

cheaper grades of brass andirons on

such as the dropping of a piece of
wood, will leave a deep dent, which
cannot always be removed. The better

of cobblestone or some kind Of rough
surfaced brick-and for such surround
ings fireplace fittings of iron will be
obviously the most suitable. Modern
craftsmen have been highly successful
in adapting to modern use many medi-
aval designs, and have spent much
thought and care upon the forging Of
iron into fittings for the fireplace
which are fully as interesting and
quite as beautiful as their models.
Brass for Colonial Room.
Where the fireplace is surrounded
bv much Colonial furnishing and with
the white paint and mahogany furni-
ture which generally accompany a
Colonial setting, iron fittings for the
fireplace would be much less suitable
than brass. and such furnishings of all
kinds are to be had in faithful repro
duction Of the pieces which adorned
early American fresides.
The famous designers who worked
in England during he reigns OF the
Georges devoted much of their atten-
ton TO fireplace furnishings, and these
designs found their way to America,
where they were followed by Colonial

Reproductions of Antiques.

place furnishings are now somewhat
difficult to obtain and one must nav
well for them. Fully as satisfactory,
however, are the reproductions of old
furnishings to be had in the shops, and
so wide is the variety offered that one
may easily secure beautiful and appro-
pirate fittings for a fireplace of almost
any character.

country, freplaces are surrounded by

It's Time to Think of the Fireplace and Its
Furnishings, Now That Christ
mas Approaches.
The Proper Selec-
ton ofEittings for
It Is an Important
Tnsk.

II UGH OF the appearance and the
NI successful use of the fireplace
depend upon the taste and
care with which it is furnished As
the altar hearthstone Of the home, It's
dignity entities i. to the most thought
full treatment and to the selection of
fittings which will both emphasize it's
Importance and aid in its use.
Different Methods for Coal and Wood.
A great deal, OF course, depends
upon whether the fireplace to be fur
nished has been designed for the use
Of wood or for coal as fuel. Where
wood is to be used there must be and
irons by which the wood may be raised
a few inches above the floor to provide
the underline" or draft, without which
it would be difficult to coax tho fire
into anything more than a smouldering
blaze.
II coal is to be the fuel there should
be an iron CRATE, or fire basket" which
will stand upon a brick floor within the
fireplace, but often it will be desired
to use coal in a fireplace really intend
ed for the burning of logs. and in such
cases the fire basket may rest upon the
iron "shanks" OF the andirons and its
use be complete success.
The fittings required for even the
most sumptuous of freplaces are few,
and they may be comparatively simple
without there being any loss OF dignity
or beauty. In addition to sndirons
there should be a pair Of tongs,
poker and q hearthbroom for keeNng
