 Mir. and Mrs. Stanly-Brown, and no effort or money was spared in it's construction. The interior is finished in hardwood, beamed ceilings and dove-tail panneling. The drawing room walls are done in tapestry and embossed leather. The walls of the vast dining room are gorgeous in wal nut pannels, with insets of white birch and heavily beamed ceilings. The 1i- brary is a dream in buff finish, with fireplace and built-in coZy hooks and lounges Huge sliding doors open from the main rooms, making one large room for formal occasions.
 Luxurious Elegance
 In Mrs Stanly- Browns personal living room are dainty mahogany chairs and her escritoire, Parisian rugs of rare beauty coveyr the floor A square piano in rosewood is exqui- site and harmonizes with the other furnishings; vases of cloisonen and crystal and silver candelabra are in with real blue delft-willow ware and evidence. Two china closets are filled Haviland.
 The kitchen is fitted with a steel range and an immense tankard of copper rests on one end. The hot water tank is also of copper and all ,, so brightly polished as to resemble furnished gold.

 And here we find men with hearts of gold beating with love for their fel- bowman, and these men may we'll be called heroes of civilization.
