ancient town and listened 10

volumes and they became the
Thousand and One-of the
Arabian Nights.
These are full of marvellous
things. OF fabulous birds

of gigantic djinnS, who were
as high as mountains but who
could be imprisoned in a small

radius of a thousand miles.
And there are lovers,
princes in love with scullery
maids, princesses in love with
chimney sweeps.

But things as strange hap

There are no fabulous

There is a dim that can

And there are lovers still.

This is unsatisfactory because II

New-Type Showers;
Ones Designed for
Summer COTTAGES
BY HILSON MUNSEY.

Bathtubs have become one of the
hrst necessities of life 1t is not
many years ago, relatively, that
bathing was considered very dan
gerous practice, even by the doctors,
and laws were passed against it..
Fortunately for the manufacturers
OF bathtubs, that belief has gone
with the wind like a lot of other
superstitions. Today one bathtub
to the family is an insufficient al
lowance.
Even the bathtub is losing its i'm
portance to a certain extent and
the shower is taking its place. OF
course shower and a tub can be
one unit, but frequently the shower
is separate convenience in the
bathroom.
There is an infinite variety of
showers from which to choose and
they cover a wide range of prices
One interesting example is a
shower that can be installed in the
corner of the bathroom. BY elm
mating partitions which take up
space 1t increases the available
area Of the bathroom 1t is five
sided. Two of the sides are made
by the tiled walls and the other
three are Of glass. One of the
three sides, and the largest one,
Is the door A triangular seat is
provided together with the shower
head operating from the wall.
Rolling Doors.
Another innovation in showers
Is a device that forms rolling glass
doors for the bath tub so that the
shower attachment can be used.
This Is for bathrooms where it
would be inconvenient for the doors
to open into the room in the usual
manner. At the top of the doors
Is a grill for ventilation.
Other models that are space
savers are four-sided showers two
OF which are glass. All these show
ers are made in three grades: heavy
construction, medium, and light.
Another shower is finished in
ehrome-plated brass with a ball
tointed shower head. 1t has a
brass curtain rod with a shower cur
tain. The sides, other than the
door, are made of galvanized steel
finished with baked-on enamel. The
base Is leakproof terrazzo.
The sizes are 30x30x82 inches.
32x32x82 inches and 36x36x82 inches
Another shower almost the same as
the one just described Is made by
the same manufacturer. 1t is four
inches lower and the base is made
OF durostone instead of terrazzo.
The construction is rather lighter,
but so is the price.
For Summer Cottages.
The summer cottage is one place
that reasonably priced shower can
be used advantageously. There is
shower of this kind made of rust
proof galvanized steel. The base is
stonetex of the fiat type. with a
continuous galvanized 1ange to con-
meet the base and the sidewalks.
The drain connection is brass and
is part OF the base The outfit con-
talns shower head. chromium
plated soap dish, enameled curtain
ROD and a white duck curtain.
A complete unit for summer cot
tage consists of three parts. On
one side is the shower; on the other,
the toilet and in between these two
units Is the wash basin. The basin
Is a precast unit that extends un-
der the combination parts and is

made in one piece. This makes a
leak-proof floor.
The installation requires no ex-
pensive wall finishing because the
unit is self-contained, being built
with metal walls. 1t really makes
a complete bathroom for a very
moderate outlay of money and it
would certainly add to the comfort
of the cottage without occupying too
much space.
The same company makes glass
shower doors Of various types. The
frames are heavy brass seamless
tubing with extruded brass mold
ings. The door works on a piano
hinge making it water-tight. The
glass can be either clear or obscure
and is set into channels Of heavy
rubber. This enables the glass to
be replaced in case of accidents,

Lighting for Garden
Accents Its Beauty

One of the best ways to enjoy
your garden is to light it so that
its beauty is apparent by night as
we'll as by day.
This does not mean to turn q
sharp spotlight on it so that it is
glare of light, but to place illumina-
tion, with its source concealed so
that several important points are
lighted.
If yours is small, formal, walled

garden, concealed lights to illuni-
mate the flower borders will make
lovely picture from your living
room window. If you have foun-
tain and pool, lights may be con-
cealed under artificial lily pads,
which gives a fairylike luminous
quality to the water with the effect
of moonlight.
Try lighting your garden for one
of your most important parties this
summer when your garden Is at its
height of beauty. installations may
be made in few hours and nothing
contributes so materially to the
success Of a party.
