For in them you will find everything—yes, everything—you have wanted. Your every desire—for a substantially construct- ed home; for a well located home; for a well planned home with roominess and an abundance of light and sunshine; for a home with the appear- ance—both outward and in—which meets the re- quirements of your social position—ALL WILL BE SATISFIED. Considerable time has been taken to build them —BUT THEY ARE BUILT! Nothing has been left undone to offer the very last word in careful, sound and sturdy censtruction. The materials have been selected with but one thought in mind— that they be the very finest. The result is—two unusual homes! TWO! You will approach these homes from either 14th or 16th street (they are about 50 yards east of 16th). They will impress you immediately as be- ing architecturally beautiful. You will enter to find an unusually large entrance hall and leading from it a spacioys living room with open fireplace, stippled walls, hardwood floors with mahogany inlays and handsome electric fixtures. The dining and breakfast rooms are correspondingly large, bright and cheerful. The kitchen is of the modern type—spacious—yet not so much so that steps will be wasted. Off the kitchen is an outside pantry (with window) and a built-in refrigerator. Up- stairs are four commodious bedrooms with the master’s bédroom extending across the complete width of the house. Two beautifully appointed bathrooms with built-in fixtures and tiled showers. Almost immense clothes closets in each room— as well as a linen closet leading off from the wide hall. The floors throughout are hardwood. The walls are attractively and tastefully fitted—with those in the entrance hall, living room and dining rooms stippled. One house has a built-in garage—the other has garage adjoining. Large Closets We knew they were wanted—that's * why we made them roomy. Each room has a clothes clonet of a sizo Jou have always dreamed.
