"Well," said he, "it is my business to know. For the last six hours, every boat we have passed flies the storm signals, and it was given out last night from ,thc Weather Bureau to all the signal stalions and telegraphed everywhere by the Associated Press, and is in the morning newspapers." Navigators or others arc foolish people if they fail to take heed of signals of difficulties ahead. The only right thing to do is to content oneself and to be governed by the storm signals.

(I'ourlli lloor, (.rntrnli Tra ne uunce o Thirty-live years after Thomas Chippendale had, in the j car 3754. first issued his book, "The (iciilleinan'r. and Cabinet Maker's Director," the llcppelwhites published "The Cabinet Maker's and Upholsterer's (iuide, or Reposi tory of Designs for livery Article of Household Furniture in the Newest and Most Approved Taste." Like Chippendale and Sheraton, they looked across the Channel to France for inspiration, but their work has never been a slavish copy, for, indeed, they invested it with a far higher degree of originality than is found in that of many of their contemporaries. The avowed aim of the Heppelwhites Aas to unite elegance and utility, to blend the useful with the agreeable, and it must be admitted that in the stylo of furniture with which their name is associated their purpose has been achieved. It is particularly pertinent to refer to this fact just now, because in the unique and unmatched assortment of bedroom furniture which we arc showing there are some Ileppelwhitc suits of outstanding charm. One of them has been called by a very experienced man "the handsomest suit we have had on the floor in years." It is singularly pure in outline and spirit, the bureau and mirror being exceptionally harmonious. There are seven pieces in mahogany showing a decora tion in a most attractive antique ctl'ect, the price being $1500. Wc have other suits belonging to the same school, and it is interesting to compare them with some in Louis Seize, especially with one Louis suit in an exquisite gray enamel at $995. Each of the six pieces in this suit is made like a fine piece of jewelry, and" the lines arc beautifully proportioned. The, range of selection among the lesser priced suits is large and delightful. $287 for a four-piece Colonial suit in American walnut. $1549 for a four-piece Queen Anne suit in antique ivory enamel. $427 for a five-piece William and Mary suit in walnut. $435 for a four-piece Chippendale suit of mahogany. $480 for a four-piece Louis XVI suit in antique ivory enamel.
