WHEN you build or
buy a house, think
first of the walls,
not of the wall papers.
Insist that the house shall
I be all-brick, just as you
insist that your suit shall
be all-wool. You don't buy
a cotton suit because you
like the buttons nor
is it wise to buy a budlv

like the wall papers or tho a

Look out for woofh.n H
