TTNQUESTIONABLY, I
- the spirit of home is
not manufactured of
wood and upholstery,
any more than the
human beings who live
in it are made up all-in-
all of a "skin face" as
the little girl aptly
called it.
But that's the part
we see. The rest we
mostly feel.
And it was said on
this page yesterday, it
is astonishing how any
thing so intangible as
the atmosphere of a
home can depend so
largely on things so
substantial, so seeming
prosaic as furniture
and carpets.
But it does.
Marion Harland. a
woman wise in the lore
of womankind, once
said, regarding the in
born home-making in
stinct of her sex:
"Give a woman a
broom, a baby and a
packing-box and she'll
make a home out of
them"
Granted. But give
the same woman the
same broom, the same
baby, a good size d
apartment or house and
a vanload of such furni-
ture as we offer in this
March Sale-and the
difference in the kind of
home she will make
with it will be worth all
she would "save" in a
lifetime of simple life in
the packing-box.
Ask the baby, when it
reaches talking age!
THERE is no getting
i away from furni-
ture. It must be had.
For people W h o
thought, at the time we
held our February Fur
niture Sale, that they
did not need new pieces
or suits, and then found
later that they did, this
