Armstrong's
Linoleum
jbr Every
Floor in the House
Ir l shoe store
customers see the floor
This linoleum floor is good-looking,
long lasting, waterproof, and easily cleaned
THE picture shows a shoe shop of
O'Connor and Goldberg in Chicago, .
which has a. floor of Armstrong's Inset
Tile Linoleum.
Store owners are discovering that in
plain colorings or appropriate designs
linoleum is a particularly suitable ma
terial for store floors.
Linoleum is smooth, but not slippery.
It is restful to the feet, and firm though
resilient.
Wet days, dry days, and busy days
make no difference where Armstrong's
Linoleum is properly laid, because the
floor is waterproof and durable to the
point of permanence.
If you are responsible for or inter
ested in the selection of floors for any
shop, store, office, or public or semi
public building, consult your architect,
contractor, or any good linoleum mer
chant about Armstrong's Linoleum.
You will find that linoleum offers not
only a satisfactory floor at an extremely
low maintenance cost, but that in both
plain colors and patterns it offers an
opportunity for giving individuality
with dignity to business floor.. Our
free booklet, "nuiineis Floors," will
be sent you on teiue.

She had finished her letter and was

She was to take a lover on the first

of Bretherlck's mania had been crowd

unbelievable people who actually
moved and breathed. After a little
groping, she recalled Woodbury, then
Woodhouse, then Woodvllle. She took

She had mentioned nobody that sho

She nodded and gave It to him with
a warm, "Thank you." He would hava

Mem aaw that the platform waa
not crowded. Ho ahe drifted out with
labored casualnesa and aat down, pre
tending to study the acenery and to be
quite deaf. Practice was making her
a zealous actress, If not a good one.

"No, I must confess. I go so sel

cowboy pictures. I met some of the
men of the 101 Ranch when they were

Mem noted that he said "rahnch."
It must be glorious to say It nat
