Have you a white toilet set for your
dresser or chiffonier? And is it COM
plete? Perhaps you may think it Is.
but that is because you have not seen
the quaint little flower pots of white to
match your set, holding rare artificial
plants. Picture to yourself how well
one of these would look on either side
of the dressing table or bureau. They
stand about eight inches high and they
may be had for fifty cents each.
