Narcissus Mirrors Are Sold in Omaha by
Orchard & Wilhelm Co.

Few Dollars will do it-property spent
Send for oor Free illustrated booklet which explain* the new
theory of home decoration and why mirrors are ultra-stylish
1 o pvc more spice in a small room—
more light in a dark room. To lend va
riety to an uninteresting hallway.
To give freshness and life—a new and
delightful atmosphere to your home and
up-to-date style.
Nothin? can equal a Narcissus Mirror
Have you often wished to enlarge a
room, without remodeling? The skillful
placing of a mirror gets the effect Of spare
almost as if you had taken down a wall.
And as for that room with the dreary out
look, which has seemed so hopeless—it is
transformed—made bright and cheerful
by a well-placed Narcissus Mirror.
The most monotonous interior gains
life and interest by a few mirrors, uiell
chosen and correctly placed.
The secret of mirror arrangement
No other single adjunct of a beautiful
room demands such thought and consid- ,
eradon as the mirror. It is to easy to make
mistakes unless youknnw how. Justasa Nar
eiaus mirrur increases charm, an inferior
one, by blurring aqd distorting, seriously
detracts from an effect otherwise charming.
Narcissus Mirrors are of such surpass
ing clarity—such perfection—that by their
use the home is transformed. A mirror’s
frame may make or mar its successful effect.
Narcissus frames are artistic creations—in
making them the art of designing reaches
its height.
Narcissus Mirrors are made of the finest
quality glass afforded by the markets of the
world. The choice is made by experts.
Narcissus Mirrors have never been imi
tated—that would he impossible. Don’t
waste your money on inferior glass IntiiHjp
on the genuine Narcissus. Notice the colored
Aist-proof back on each mirror f,ook for
the metal trade-mark—NARCISSUS.
