The Father and Mother Who
Awakened a Love '
of country and high ideals in their sons and
daughters, who eagerly went to the front in
uniforms or labored in the thousand and one
organizations of the home and to aid human beings
affected variously by the war necessities, have done
nobly for their country and the honor of their
names.
Any one thing &W. done is worth living and
working for.
Some artisjts, who paint pictures, will be
remembered, like Munkacsy, by one picture only,,
which he spent five years upon; some authors, like
Bunyan, by one book; some engineers, like Goethals,
for the Panama Canal work.
Some merchants, like A. T. Stewart, by the iron
building and store he built and managed in New
York next to the Grace Church. '

The shapes are good and fashionable; the straws are varied and
in good style; there are many colors as well as black and white.
And $1 to $6 is much below their first prices, for many arc half

Noticed Women

Furniture That Seems to Keep Places
and People Cooler
It seems as if there is such a thing as tem
peratuie in furniture; that is, in the material and
construction of it, but especially in the suggestion
or feeling that they convey.
Of course, everybody can understand how
much cooler is a flexible, open-worked wicker chair
than a great luxurious easy chair with its hot,
downy upholsteries.
Everybody who is human can understand also
that there is something about the appearance and
constiuction of wicker furniture wnich at once
suggests coolness, a coolness one cannot easily As
sociate with regular furniture for obvious rea
sons in a word, the temperature of wicker seems
so much lower.
The weather we have been experiencing gives
the Summer furniture display a very timely in
terest. It is surely a ery comforting place on a
hot day.
Take chairs and rockers, for example, the
choice of which is truly exceptional.
For a reed rocker in French walnut color the
price is $30. Chair to match at the same price.
A wicker chair with new-shape back and wide
arms, in a light brown, is $21.50.
A fiber rocker in light brown with spring up
holstered seat and back is $24.
A broad armchair with upholstered scat and
bai.k is $17.50.
A wing chair, in natural, with upholstered
scat and back is $24.
For a chair or rocker'with pocket arm the
