WHAT Do You DO With PHOTOGRAPHS?

plush and mother Of pearl covers did
catch the dust and clash with every
thing else In the front parlor' where
they usually resided on a small table
that also contained tine family bible.
But one parpose they certainly did
serve, and that was to dispose of the
numerous photographs that came into
the house in the curse of time. Now
adays most photographs are really
works OF art. for photography has inn
proved much since the days of our
grandmothers. Besides being decora-
tive. photographs are now more thai
ever before realistic presentations of
those whom we know and love.
What do YOU do with the photo

bought at almost any picture store or
included to which photographs can be
fitted. One does not have to go to the
trouble of framing them passe-partout
fashion. although this is neat and eff
fective. for these little old gold or dull
wood frames are scarcely more ex-
pensive. Sometimes If the frames
cannot be bought separately. they can
be picked up at a sale of framed pic
tures-cheap prints which are not
worth keeping.
