Here, preparing the food and handling the dishes for three meals daily, the woman of the house spends the larger part of her time. The best wall treatment won’t take work out of the kitchen, but an intelligent use of color, finish and material can do much to make that work easier, more congenial and pleasurable. Enamel-finish Sanitas meets every requirement of light re- fleetion, beauty of pattern, and immaculateness. Sanitas is made on cloth, machine-painted with durable oil colors. It does not absorb grease, moisture, or stains, and can be wiped clean and fresh with a damp cloth. It does not crack, peel, tear, blister, or fade, and can be applied on any flat surface. Sanitas, for kitchens, bathrooms, laundries, etc., comes in enamel-finish plain colors and beautiful tile and mosaic effects. Can be had also in flat-finish tints and decorative patterns for other rooms. THE STANDARD TEXTILE PRODUCTS CoO. B8R0 BROADWAY. NEW YORK Department W.
